Prediction: Dark Souls 2 will stay the highest rated new game on Metacritic in 2014

One down and my prediction still stands.

Things that imo could still destroy it: Bayonetta 2, Smash and possibly LBP 3 (those games are critics favourites so who knows)

CToad may beat Dark Souls 2, if people rate it. Smash 3DS/WiiU or Bayo2 may also trump it if it sticks to past markers. I don't see LBP3 even breaking 85% average. Destiny is out of the running. Sunset Overdrive MIGHT get high enough on color, spirit, and flavor. I can't think of anything else.

I'm actually a little sad that Dark Souls 2 is higher rated than Dark Souls 1.

I don't see Captain Toad getting in the 90s, more like low-mid 80s. And I wouldn't underestimate LBP, hasn't had a game score under 87 on Metacritic yet (aside from the Karting game).
