Reviews in general lately have been quite low compared to earlier this generation with only 2 games last year on console pulling off a 90 or better on Metacritic. Those games were Mass Effect 3 and Far Cry 3.

So what game will be the next critical darling?   2013 has already kicked off with some solid games but none achieving that elusive milestone.

Soul Sacrifice.

Anyway the Fire Emblem: Awakening already did it in 2013.

For consoles... The Last of Us.

Edit - lol you mean consoles.



Bioshock infinite, or the last of us.



90 chance of it being bioshock



GTAV

Bioshock Infinite



Bioshock Infinite and The Last of Us are both games I'm worrying about in terms of reviews.

They both look amazing but they also both have immense hype. I'm somewhat worried that if they don't absolutely blow reviewers away they will be somewhat harshly scored.



hmmmmm. Last of Us seems to look good, bioshock maybe.


GTA5 will get it easily, WW HD for Wii U as well.



U guys seriously think Last of Us will receive 90 on meta? Dang.

Its a Naughty Dog game so it certainly has a good chance of making it
