Am I the only one who thinks there's no chance this game gets more than 79? I predcit between 55-79.

Lol, because a colourful and creative game can't possibly be any good, am I right?

55%? Does this game look anywhere near as bad as Sonic Boom to you? 55% is what I would give a game that forces you to basically replay it four times over to get to the real ending (I see you're playing Bravely Default). In all seriousness, BD is a good game, the final just ruined every enjoyment I had with it.

Anyway I don't take XGN or any other "professional" reviewer all that seriously when they keep rating yearly franchises like CoD and Assassins Creed that high.

I'm pretty sure these guys broke the review embargo as well considering the link on metacritic is dead. Plus it's a Dutch site, Europe doesn't get Captain Toad this year. Makes me wonder if they even played it. 

Idk, I'm no expert, but it seems kind of a meh simple kids type of game. Critics' opinions seemed mixed on those types of games, especially this gen.

Games need to be utterly broken before they get such low scores though. You're right that critics' opinions can be very biased regarding such games, but I'd be surprised if this scores below 70%.

This game is being made by the guys (and girls) who made Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario Land and Super Mario 3D World after all.
