Here's what I reckon-
Skyward Sword will win (96-98). The fact it's a Zelda game puts it above 90 immediatly. Then you have all the new stuff, the open world promise etc. All the 3D Zelda games on consoles have scored above 95 (99,96,95,97 FYI), why would SS be different? Saying anything other than Zelda, no matter the game, is often a mistake. Critics just love it more than any other series...
Skyrim (93) will come close. The great overworld, monsters etc. will raise the bar for the series, but the lack of aim and clumsiness will hurt it.
Uncharted 3 (93) will be another close contender. Whilst better than previous games, it'll be marked down because of a sequel. It won't do enough new stuff to be the best, though will likely win the most awards.
Gears 3 (91) will do well also. But not up there with the rest.
Finally, MW3 (89) will show to reviewers that the series is stagnating. I doubt it'll get amazing scores because it's COD, like last year...
I may start a thread to do this actually.
