Zelda, cause it is Zelda. There is no discussion.



Around the Network

Zelda, but it will be a close one.



Bets:

1. If the Wii U sells closer to 10 million LTD by 1/3/2015 I win. If it sells closer to 9.5 million LTD by 1/3/2015 OfficerRaichu15 wins (winner gets 2 weeks of avatar control)--Lost.

Of the choices you gave...Zelda or Uncharted. But I would definitely add Xenoblade Chronicles X as a contender.



Upcoming Games To Get

Definite: Kirby Star Allies (Switch), Mario Tennis Aces (Switch), Fire Emblem (Switch), Yoshi (Switch), Pokemon (Switch), Kingdom Hearts 3 (PS4), Monster Hunter World (PS4)

Considering: Fe (Switch), Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze (Switch), The World Ends With You (Switch), Ys VIII (Switch), Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition (PS4), Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Remix (PS4), The Last Guardian (PS4), Shadow of the Colossus HD (PS4), Anthem (PS4), Shenmue 3 (PS4), WiLD (PS4)

The Witness.



I have a feeling Zelda will take it. That being said, UC4, MGS and The Witcher should give it a run for its money. XCX has a shot as well, given the original's reception.

I think Uncharted 4 will squeeze Zelda out by a small bit.



I find it quite interesting that last gen Sony, Nintendo, and MS all had a very similar number of games that scored 90+:

Nintendo:
SMG1
SMG2
LoZ:TP
LoZ:SS
SSBB
Xenoblade
Metroid Prime 3

Sony:
Uncharted 2
The Last of Us
LittleBigPlanet
God of War 3
LittleBigPlanet 2
Uncharted 3
Killzone 2
MLB 10

Microsoft:
Gear
Halo 3
Gears 2
Forza 3
Halo Reach
Gears 3
Forza 4

The big difference was in their 80+ games where Sony lead by a huge margin with 27 games, while MS was second with 15, and Nintendo had 11 games. Which is why I usually can't help but laugh when someone says Nintendo has the best first party games...

Not to mention out of the top ten highest rated IPs last gen 6 were multiplatform games (though not available on a Nintendo console), 3 were Sony first party, and 1 was nintendo first party, while MS failed to secure a spot on the list. Once you look at these facts it becomes quite clear why PS4 is selling so well, they really won gamers on their side throughout the last generation.



I mean, the first true Zelda in HD is coming this year. It's totally going to take the title.

at the end of the day,the highest rated will be a Nintendo game


and not get many GoTY awards

 Also inb4 Remasters/Ports count :-/ (yes so no DS2/LoZ MM/XC3D/etc)


Bayonetta 2 won GOTY for quite a few websites

 

and i dont think remasters/ports should count either
