Has to be GOTY there's nothing else to compete with?

As much as i want this game to be GOTY, there is still Zelda and thats gonna be a real contender, so yeah... but i will be rooting for Bloodborne of course.

happy to see this game still getting perfect scores, cant wait for the IGN and Polygon reviews so we can see the definitive score

I don't doubt IGN will give the game at least a 9.

Polygon on the other hand.  I don't know what to expect.  

"Too hard 3/10."

"Too much blood 4/10"

"Amazing game, but not one to be played with children 1/10"

"Too good 2/10"

i think its to late to get some clickbait to be honest, since everyone already knows that the game is great, but then again Polygon is not exactly the best site out there so who knows, lets hope they dont do that.

It appears Polygon passed the first enemy, but in trouble with the second. Full Review coming Mid of April.

Eurogamer 10/10

Essential

An old friend sent me a quote from the review.

"The fact is that few other studios in the world can match what From Software is doing in big-budget games. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki is possessed of a rare talent, an all-encompassing design sensibility capable of tying everything that matters - aesthetics, narrative, sound and mechanical design - together in a manner where each feeds into and enhances the others. The structure underlying Bloodborne is not just original but coherent, and because of this the impact of everything it does is commensurately greater. This is total design. It feels wonderful to have a world like this and, over a week of solid play later, feel that there's so much more to discover. And it's awful to know that, in all likelihood, it will be a painfully long time until I play anything else that matches up to Bloodborne's breadth of vision, generosity of content, and - yes - genius."



I'm loving the great reviews! I am currently working out of town but will be able to come home and play it tonight. My wife sent me a teaser pic of my Bloodborne CE. I'm so ready!

Well here we are at last:

2/4 (50/100)

http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/review-bloodborne-punishing-trek-haunted-city-29923089

Not that they're after hits of course.


Finally a "its too hard! :(" review lol

"The studio has built an impressive cult audience for its brand of abuse, but if you're the type of person who plays a game to relax and unwind, "Bloodborne" is not for you. I admire its uncompromising vision — but I don't particularly like it"

He shouldn't of reviewed it if he knew anything about the game and a 4 star system!? that makes no sense.

To all those who think Bloodborne is amazing, pls take the time to go on Amazon and Metacritic and score it a 10/10 to offset the haters with an obvious agenda to lower the score of the game out of salty spite.

Giving 10/10 reviews to a game to offset haters giving 0/10 is just stooping down to their level, in my opinion.

The best course of action is writing an honest and complete review when you've had time to play through the game. Anyone who spent some time on Metacritic or Amazon knows one line reviews are worthless and that all exclusive are bound to be plagued by those extreme reviews (both positive and negative). The average user scores on these sites are useless but there are still good, honest and thorough reviews to be found and those are the ones people consider when making a purchase.

You make a good point, but when a game is actually close to 8/9/10 in reviews a 0 is much worst then someone giving it a 10, atleast the 10 is close to the actual score.

If stating objective points such as difficultly of a gaming series that prides itself on said element is being used as a negative, then it really shouldn't count towards BloodBorne's metacritic.
