| TheGoldenBoy said: I'm pretty sure IGN uses their own scoring when determing GOTY. So a game like DK: Tropical Freeze technically could be considered in their GOTY nominees because they gave it a 9.0, even though its meta is 83. |
And that's why I said Metacritic isn't really the best indicator. There are only a couple of awards shows not tied to a specific outlet, and Keighley's is a complete wild card this year. Nominees are supposed to be announced this week, so we'll see where that's headed. My guess is that it won't align with Metascores though.
