77 metacritic. Good quality as I am a fan of 70-79 rated games but certainly below the impossible standard PS3 fans hype up their exclusives.

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Twisted Metal didn't get much hype at all, plus wait for more reviews. It is 80+ on gamerankings now

Oh pleeeeease. First, gamerankings is second string. We use metacritic. Second, every, and I mean every big PS3 retail exclusive is expected to get 90+ by the forum dwellers.

I for one, set realistic expectations. I predict Alan Wake AN to be in the mid 80's.

Doing as I expected so far. (slightly under 80)
Don't think that anyone here expected a 90+ score.

I've gotta Echo this.

I've made a bet with Dsage01, where he predicted 85 and above and I predicted 84 and below basically. The thought of 90 didn't even hit either one of us and I am arguably one of the biggest sony fanboys here :'P. I played TM2 as a kid and my love for this serie is just nostalgia x500. I was sceptical on how it would ..do in our time now and im glad to say it's a game any TM fan will enjoy madly. The folkes over at Gaf seem more than very satisfied and the constant praise is actually shocking. I too got the "omg i'm home" when i booted up the demo x'). Great game that caters to the fans, despite being a game that probably has a genre which is dying or even dead practically.

What really makes me happy though is that I finally got the go-to game for 4 player splitscreen. My friends LOVED TM2 when we were kids. We had like tournaments and shit every day. Thank you Sony, Eat sleep play & Jaffe. Best of luck to you and I hope the rumors about the sales being somewhat higher than expected is true!

On another note:
Loving the game :D and Dsage01: Things are looking grimm bro! Starhawk better deliver that 85+ xD
