There are 8 exclusives from Onyxmeths list that are still to come this year and heres the challenge - can you pick their metacritic score before they arrive?

These are my picks for the ratings for each game.

90%+ AAA games:

  1. Gears of War 2 (I would think 96% like the last game)
  2. Banjo Kazooie, looks like fun and critics reward innovative games ( 92% most likely for me)
  3. Left 4 Dead - So long as they treat it nicely with regards to graphics I would have to give it a good shot at 92% metacritic.
  4. Fable 2 - Looks pretty awesome, its ironic that this is really the first game of this type this generation aside from Oblivion. Should be reviewed - 93% as well based on feedback from E3.

85%+ AA Games:

  1. Last Remnant - Looks like the best JRPG to come this generation so far, it seems like quite a lot of fun. 87%

80%+ Great games

  1. Infinite Undiscovery - looks pretty good, it strikes me as quite a fun JRPG but doesn't show quite the same feel and polish as Last Remnant. 81%
  2. Too Human - Its going to be loved by some, hated by some but I think it should manage a respectable 80% showing.

70%+ Still good but falls to the lovers of the genre/series a lot.

  1. Tales of Vesperia, probably 78% like Lost Odyssey

So do you think you can do better than me? Lets predict how the 8 major exclusives left for the year perform huh? Lets keep score - if you're spot on get 5 points, if you're within 1% either way get 2 points and if you're within 2% either way get 1 point.

Entry closes August 9th - A week before the release of Too Human and Tales of Vesperia.

Interesting.

Game  Score Notes
Gears of War 2 93.5% Similar score to GoW1
Left 4 Dead 92.0% Very very high score for Co-Op
Fable 89.9% Better reviewed than 1st one due to Multiplayer
Banjo-Kazooie 87.5% Points docked for focus on vehicles
Infinite Undiscovery 82.0% Decently high score. Will dock points for VA & Story
Tales of Vesperia 80.9% Great score for a Tales game.
The Last Remnant 78.9% Won't be as good as some think
Too Human 74.9% Hated by critics, but will do we in terms of user reviews

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
