Forums - Gaming Discussion - The first true next-gen game that will score a meta above 90 will not be released in 2014

the wii-u isn't next gen.

I think u 4 won't be released this year and Halo 5 is for 2015.

You didn't get the memo. Wii U isn't nextgen, it's lastgen+.

re PS4bone games. I think the Order can get a 90. If it has a solid story, interesting characters, good voice acting,  solid gameplay and the graphics live up to the what's been presented so far it can easily get a 90 or 91. The gameplay might be relatively generic TPS, but if it's well implemented it will be just fine.

If Uncharted 4 releases this year, and it brings something fresh to the franchise, then it will meta above 90 for sure.

Halo, possibly yes. But obviously 343 needs to impress the critics more than they did with Halo 4.


No, YOU didn't get the memo. The Wii U is nextgen. There's no debating that. There's no denying it. It's not an opinion that can be argued or respected. It's irrifutable fact. So yeah, Super Mario 3D World already did it and the point of this thread is utterly nonsense.



Wii U is next gen. PS1 and N64 were in the same gen even though the N64 was obviously much more powerful. PS2, Xbox, Dreamcast, and Gamecube were all in the same gen, even though the Gamecube and Xbox were a lot more powerful than the Dreamcast and PS2. You can't have it both ways people.

PS5, Xbox Two and Wii F U is next gen. Wake up guys, the "next gen" is already current gen.



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey

Come on guys. Wii-u isn't next gen. Be honest please. Only for Nintendo because they finally can develop games in HD.

And yes 2015 will be the best year for games in a very long time. I second that. Great games.

The Last Guardian
Metal Gear Solid V
Final Fantasy XV

I trust wikipedia - got me through university and my honors degree

No one is going take you serious if you keep up this charade. Next gen has never been defined by power! Never has and never will.

N64 jump over PS1 is extremely small due to cartridges. N64 couldn't even handle RPGs whereas PS1 had Chrono Cross, one of the best looking games of the generation.

So no, it's not as obvious as you think it is.


Oh no, I agree with you. The PS1 embraced the better storage medium, and it allowed developers to make bigger andd more complex games, even though the graphics were only 32 bit. N64 was 64 bit, and no PS1 game ever managed to come close graphically to Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask. Most N64 games were shallow, sure, but it still had internals that were leaps and bounds above the PS1.

True Next-Gen? A game needs to score 90+ to be considered "True Next-Gen"? Damn, that's a lot of 6th Gen titles in Gen 7!

Seriously, a 90+ title should be one in a million. A game that does almost everything right and appeals to a very broad audience. I think it's a good thing that scores apparentl aren't as inflated anymore as they were some years ago.
