The Last Guardian: Possibly. The third game from team ICO. The first two both crossed the 90 mark on metacritic. Will TLG follow the same fate? I'm not sure. With many people running around citing SOTC as the greatest game ever, critics are going to have some very high expectations for this game. No matter how good the game is, I'm not sure it'll be good enough to reach 90 meta.

This may be another case where too much hype is a bad thing. Also, the game doesn't seem to be as action-oriented as SOTC. This can be  a let down for some critics. But then again, it is team ICO. They have the potential to dazzle critics one more time.

My bet's on ICO collection

The Last Guardian is the only game I know for sure, 100%, guarantee that will get 90+ on Metacritic.

Possibly God of War Orgins because the games were great I just hated the fact that they were portable.

Twisted Metal, Starhawk and Last guardian look like to have a pretty good chance too

1.See that part is key, what you wouldn't call great.

2.Even Reach was called "more of the same", yet maintained a 90+ Meta score. As for Ico/SotC Collection, again, more speculation.

3.All I can say; look at the God of War Collection. Even more, it didn't even get the labor of extra polish the Ico/SotC Collection is getting, yet it sits pretty @ 91 on Metacritic.

Just some things to consider.


1. Besides Guerilla I can't think of one Sony 1st party dev that passed the 90+ on their first attempt on the PS3.

2. Reach was average and didn't deserve to be in the 80s, let alone the 90s. And it was docked a good amount of points from the last major Halo.

3. This is an interesting one, that i will make subpoints for.

A. Ico, and SotC came out long before GoW 1 and 2. This gen was already well under way when GoW 2 was finally released. So the voting metric hadn't changed as muched.

B. GoW series had an average metacritic of 93.5, and then the rerelease had a Metacritic average of 91. That's a 2.5 point drop. If we were to do the same to the Ico collection that would put the score under 90. And that was with GoW being a much newer series.

C. rereleases are no longer new. Not sure if that will effect the score, but just saying/

The Last Guardian. A couple of those games have a shot at a 90+ rating, but the only one I'm completely sure about it The Last Guardian.

The critic scores are bullshit.

The Last Guardian. Ico Collection will suffer from being old. Standards have changed in ways we don’t even pick up on unless we go back and play older games. I've been playing old Gamecube/PS2 games (at my kid's request) and they aren't holding up nearly as well as I expected. TLG should be more in line with what we consider the standard to be.


Tell that to all the reviewers who enabled Ocarina of Time 3D to score a Meta of 94. Also don't forget about GoW Collection with a Meta of 91.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

Or tell that to me.  I'm playing Twilight Princess at the request of my daughter.  It's all I can think about, now.  HD consoles, be damned!!
