Honestly, I know people will rip them apart, but I praise Kill Screen for having the balls. This is massively over rated critically.

Personally, I wouldn't rate it a 69, but I honestly couldn't see myself rating this more than an 80 tops.

Not the best scored game of the generation at the end, and the user scores are not that hot, a 8.5 on Ps4, 7.9 on PC, 7.7 on XBO... I mean maybe the game was heavily overrated for some of the press, I´m still interested, but after playing the first hours with a friend of mine... man I don´t see why this game is so brilliant, it is very polish though.

Actually, as of now, it still is. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (93) is ranked 106 and Super Mario 3D World (93) is ranked 118. Those are the only two 93s this gen.

Unless there is another 8th gen I missed.

They both have a 93 then, there is no diference in there. If something 3D World is above MGSV since it has a 93 with 88 reviews instead of 55.

And I though Bloodborne and Witcher 3 were at 93 too, but I just realize they don´t, 1 point doesn´t really make a difference though.

I don't really care too much but 93.1 and 93.2 are both 93 rounded down, but obviously one is larger than the other. I'm pretty sure Metacritic's all-time ranking doesn't just put all the 93s in random order.

I doubt 55 reviews will be the end, there is still more to come, this score is not definite at all, right now.

Usually at this point games go down instead of up, but yeah there is still time for a 94 again.

So for now it's tied with Super Mario 3D World at 93. Ah well, still great scores for the game. Be interesting to see if it stabilizes or goes back up.

Sorry, MGS V. You tried stealing the crown from the king, MGS 2, but you weren't able to. At least you surpassed MGS3!

Yes, it's over MGS3, but they are really close, still nothing decided.
Sadly some of the great reviews went to the XBO and PC so the score to the game itself could have been higher as a single platform.


Well, such is life of multiplatform titles! Now that you mention it, XBO is at 96.
