This.

In addition to that, when a game has a shit load of content, the contrast between the weakest and the best content within that game get treated like negatives and positives rather than reviewers saying they are decent additions which other games dont even offer at all.

Mario Karts tend to settle in the upper-eighties, and even EDGE gave this one a 9. Things are looking up.

However, some reviewers might catch extreme hype syndrome and decide that Watch Dogs is the new GOTG.

My guess is MK8 will get more consistent reviews. Watch Dogs is a bit of a gamble, there's more chances that MK8 will be on top.

Mario Kart 8

MK8 unless the critics get onboard the Ninty hate train with the usual ''Nintendo is always doing the same thing... Where are the new IP? MK has been good for 20years so it's playing it to safe, blahblahblah''.... You know? The kind of critics that are using a review of a Ninty game as a platform to bitch about nintendo, reviewing Ninty as a whole instead of the game.

I think MK8 will beat it out. If only because WD will have some glaring issues keeping it in the 80's where MK is a 90's type of game.

We know pretty much everything there is to know about MK8, and seen it all, too.

I haven't been following W_D at all, do we know much about that game?

MK8.

MK8 looks like fun. Watch Dogs looks not like fun. So Watch Dogs.

What is wrong with Mario Kart 8's battle mode?
