That's actually really tough to tell. MK will definitely get something above 80 but the potential to go near 90 isn't really there. Watch Dogs could go either way and maybe even down to the 70s but it definitely has a good potential to reach the 90s.

Going with MK as a safe bet.

MK8.

MK8 - MC
WD - sales

Watch_Dogs has already lost the battle, the recent controversy regarding 'downscaling' from original E3 footage will already have some people convinced its going to be a terrible game regardless of how the finished product turns out.

Unless some grumpy morons gives Mario Kart a low score just to give it a low score i say Mario Kart will get the highest Metacritic

Quarter to Three!

Mario Kart 8. If it's getting a 9 from EDGE it's going to get 10s elsewhere.

Watch Dogs will be good I think, mid eighties meta. I have a feeling it's also the kind of game where some might give it a particularly harsh review to get clicks and attention, which will affect it's overall standing slightly

Hard to say, mk8 at the lowest will likely get in the high 80s, top out in the mid 90s. Watch Dogs, with all the hype, good and bad, I could see it getting mixed reviews and scoring anywhere between 70-90. So I'd lean towards the safer money in mk8.

I think we're looking at a 81 for Watch Dogs, 90 for Mario Kart 8. I think Watch Dogs might lose a few points for being a "jack of all trades, master of none."

mk8
heres why
pretty much all(well most) critics believe the graphics lv design and items and characters(even if they arent new theres still more characters)and all they will hate is probly battle mode(which shouldnt take it down much)
wd is interesting it will most likely get good reviews but its a new ip so we cant tell how crtics are going to think about it
my guess
MK8:92
WD:87
