Really? Because what if it gets a 92-93, that means it'll be in the run for GoTY. Not many games hit over 90+. Every 90+ game was practically a contender last year.

Dont kno if your joking or what...

GOTY awards are given from multiple media outlets and multiple events, Metacritic result isn't the defacto signifier of a GOTY winner.

Assassins creed 3 averaged 85, won GamePro's GOTY 2013, Oddworld Abe's oddysee, 85 again, still won Games magazines GOTY in 1999, Ass creed 2 won GamePro's GOTY in 2009 with a score of 86, Dragon Age: Inquisition won EGM's 2014 GOTY award with a meta of 85, Edge awarded Borderlands GOTY in 2009 despite getting a PC meta of 81 and console of 89, Destiny won GamesRadars GOTY despite metas in the mid 70s. Famitsu gave GOTY to Monster Hunter 4 despite metas of 86.

So tell me again how meta is directly linked to GOTY.

Because im talking about majority of GoTY. I didnt list GoTY for Polygon/Ign/etc only. Metacritic reflects that, so i ask again really?

Also you cant cherry pick a console for multiplats, its always the one with the most reviews for obvious reasons. Games you listed are mostly games that won GoTY from 1-3 gaming sites/reviewers/etc.

Once again METACRITIC DOES REFLECT MAJORITY OF GOTY.
