I don't want to destroy everyone's jovial mood, but what do you think the game's metascore will go down to once the game gets reviewed by the mainstream US gaming press?

F#$% metacritic. It's turned into something irrelevant to sales. And no, that study made a while back only proves reviews affect sales IF people read them. It did not prove THAT most gamers read reviews.

GTA IV getting outsold by Mario Kart Wii should make it clear that review averages don't correlate to sales. If the game sells well, THAT will matter more than reviews.

Matter to who else besides the companies??

They matter more than reviews, since those companies actually get money from sales, and that they, or at least their stockholders, would want more such games.

So the really irrelevant one is reviews, since they don't really matter. People just think they matter.
