GT6 is going up against all odds!

80% is the new meh, modest, flop, etc...

Curious.....what was the hype bracket for GT6?

80's or 90's final meta?

Any prediction is personal

 I actually said  that, cause it started on 75% and now its on 80%

Wow this usually doesn't happen on metacritic....like hardly ever. The numbers fluctuate give or take 5 points but then tend to settle. Its almost like all remaining reviewers who didn't submit their score yet saw the meta score and didn't want to keep it there. Their inner child that played GT 1-3 couldn't allow them to keep the score in the 70's :P

Is this Metacritic thing your god or something?


Yes.

But seriously, I assumed GT6 was going to get a much better metascore and that would lead to boasting. But thus far, that doesn't seem to be the case. Which is good.


and you based this off just 14 critics when it was at 75, now its at 81 with just 25 while forza 5 has 81 with 54 critics, lets wait and see when GT6 has as many critics as forza 5 to see what it scores eh.

Actually this was inevitable to happen since ppl started flaming the meta with 15 reviews... GT5 has like 80 reviews! Big change is gonna happen still

New Question: Where will the rise of the score end? I think at 84: Which is same as GT5 I think

Apparently yes, because it goes to show how many people are unable to think for themselves.


THIS. i still ignore reviews and ratings. like it was back in the day u get feed back from playing it at friends house to see if u want it and if no one has it u take the chance for ur friends.

I just hope the reviews stay low enough to keep boasting down.

Is that too much to ask for?

Curious...what is a hype bracket? 

When a fan group hypes a game and predicts the bracket it settles on.

70-79, 80-89, or 90+. I havent kept track and was wondering if GT6 fans predicted a 80 or 90 bracket. If they said 80's, then hype met.
