I'm sorry, but this is a complete non-issue. Almost every score will be near perfect because, like previous high end titles, any reviewer that 'dares' to give it less than perfect will be spammed, have their lives threatened and possibly have his or her house burned down by PS3 fanatics. Thus, this will be like predicting if the tide will still continue to come in or if the sun will end up shining tomorrow.

I figure it'll be a good game, but, frankly, the scores will be complete fabrications in order for critics to save themselves the trouble of getting harped at.

(EDIT: I guess I should add that the whole 'house burning' thing is meant as a exagerated statement, since there will obviously be people demanding proof that houses were burned down...)

Wait what? -_-

Remember when Killzone 2 came out? People who dared to say that there were imperfections with the game actually received death threats from the fanbase. People who didn't give Metal Gear Solid 4 98% or higher rankings were subject to spam, ridicule and, unsurprisingly, more threats.

Basically, trying to judge what the verdicts will be are easy. Do these people really want to be flooded, yet again, with more death threats, email bombs (also part of the MGS4 reaction) and spam including insults about every possible thing ever? The ratings will be universally high, but there's no way to tell who actually likes the game and who wants to avoid another problem with the fans. That's what I mean. Why bother guessing when there's going to be no variation anyways?
