Far Cry 2 has the best chance to get 90+ of the games that are left, but I don't think it'll make it. If the story is amazing (like they're hyping it up to be), reviewers will naturally go into hyperbole mode. I don't know about the multiplayer though


I believe you're right.  Maybe Hitman but I dont see that either. Reviews have been really harsh this year so Im not expecting any 90s next year besides Last of Us at the moment

Well, I am hoping God of War : A gets good reviews. It would be a shame otherwise, although it is a prequel.


Im sure it will get great reviews.  Anything between 86-92 probably.  Looks like a great game  and plus there isnt very many games like God of War.


There are many games like God of War, its jut that God of War is best in class, kind of like how Halo is for shooters. Darksiders 2 just came out, DMC is coming out and GOW:ascension is coming out. Being that its a prequel the game should get more hours of play. I got more hours out of Ghost of Sparta than I did part 3 even though 3 was aboslutely gorgeous.


That's what I meant.  The only ones I could think that is kind of respected is Ninja Gaiden, Devil May Cry, and Bayonetta but none of those games are nearly as good as God of War.  And like you said Halo is respected as being a top tier FPS.  Itll be interesting to see what Ascension gets.  If you ask me it looks like the best God of War.

It looks utterly brutal and now that Ghost of Sparta finally made sense out of the character of kratos he actually has more than one reason to fight instead of being angry for no apparent reason. its going to be very, very brutal and this is a much younger Kratos, so I am sure hes going to be more wreckless.

God of War is made by Santa Monica though; and it is coming after 3 years since the last God of War by them. I am sure it will be great.

What are you trying to say here?  Neither one of those things will effect the score

I mean, SMS make God of Wars really well. So after 3 years time, they should make it pretty good. Maybe it won't affect the score but it should be great.

I know.  Ill prob get both the PSP games on PS3 sometime, just putting it in my back catalog for when I have time.  I always hated the PSP so I skipped them.l  The only game I bought for my PSP was Peace Walker and that's because Hideo Kojima was making it.

I hope they put that EGM reviewer to review COD:Black OPS2 and if that game gets a better score,
that guy should be fired and his credibility is shit.

I got both on the PS3. They both look like PS2 HD games but are still very fun.
