Hitman for Game of the Year. You heard it here first!

I wonder how BioShock: Infinite and God of War: Ascension will fare with critics next year. If Halo 4 can't get 90, then I highly doubt that Gears of War: Judgment can.

This sucks. My two most anticipated titles of the fall (AC III and Halo 4) have received underwhelming review scores. It pisses me off that the overrated Dishonored will probably be winning all of the GotY awards.

I've yet to play Dishonored, but I'm curious as to what makes it overrated.


Very short. Me and my mate finished it in 6 hours. The gameplay is fairly good. But its not as good as Skyrim or Deus Ex. Id give it a 7. Nice new IP. Just lacks in gameplay and especially visulas in comparison to other games out there.

What does sales2099 say now?


I was wondering when you'd be back to chime in; he certainly walked right into it.

VestmanX, if anyone wants to add me

He's banned until Thursday.  Score may have stabalised by then.  If it's still in the 80's, though, he dug himself into a bit of a hole with the AC3 thread =/

I haven't played Dishonored, but it seems odd to compare it to Skyrim. They appear to be vastly different games.

9.4! I think I predicted that from him?

 

Nice review! I wonder why meta doesn't include gamrreview, they are certainly a quality reviewer.

High profile games like this are expected to get above 90%, more like 93% or 94%. Now Halo 4 has a low score of 89 on metacritic. Halo 4 is not AAA quality.

AAA is the bugdet of the game not the critic score.

hopefully the gamrreview will bump it up on meta



Yay!!!
