Lmao a 87/100 is low score now.

It isnt low.  But how can the sum of the parts be lower?

Especially when the sum of the parts cost 1/4?

It's the same with all collections. Even with 7th gen collection, when critics were being a tad softer, non managed to scrape far past 90.

Collections are treated as raw value propositions, which both ensures they get a high scores, but also makes it difficult to achieve far past 90. I'm sure plenty disagree with this manor of doing things, but it's always been this way. I thought the MCC may be able to fight past this harsher treatment, but it seems it's victim to the same net as everything else.

Well Orange Box is clearly the excpetion at 96  (except on PS3 where it was a mess)

What comes next?

I know God of War only got a 73 but that wasn't in the same league in terms of upgrades and value.

I cant recall any other "collection" scores from memory.

God of war got 91 though
