Did any review remove points for the lack of multiplayer?


Not that I have seen, probably because it lasts longer then 4 hours..

It's obvious the press is using a different rating for next games, and i'm very happy for that. Basically now a 75-80 on metacritic is what a 85-90 was last gen.

Wow critical flop added to the title. That's interesting

I just want to spare us from having 10 different threads saying it is a flop. I'm doing us all a favor here.

Since when is 80 a flop ? If thats the case we have what 2,3 games that arent a flop per year ?

I guess only FPS work nowadays in america.


all these reviews are form the US?


Most of them are, and the most relevant in score. Metacritic score is mostly made by american reviews.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Not bad so far! 78-82 is what I am thinking it will settle at! Which for me is very good! From what I remember 2 didn't score that well either BUT none the less I had a TON of fun in part 1 and 2. So if this game falls in line with them then I will have a blast with this game as well! Still as of right now my most hyped PS4 game.

It is not a flop, looks like a good game, but right now is bellow spectations.

2 had a meta of 83, 1 had a meta of 85. I personaly think 2 is vastly superior to 1 so Im almost sure the trend will continue now with 3.

Looks like it will stabilize at 80. Good but not great. Only 6 points off GOTG though,so we can't be too negative

Edge (UK, last 3 reviews)

Dark Souls II : 9

Metal Gear GZ : 9

inFamous : 7

The EDGE review is an interesting read, seems fair.  They are juts unhappy at the lack of variety of game play and basic errors, such as repetitive scenery.

Thanks for pointing out the that MGS score. Just lol.
