Amazing internet journalism from nintendoeverything.com.

And that is only one of the 3 platforms It was on. It has plenty more on PS3 and PC.

edit: after a quick check GTAV also has more across all platforms.

GTAIV is such an overratted piece of Garbage. Now GTA V deserves all the accolades.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

This thread is confusing.

Did it beat a game only counting 1 platform? Or the source was wrong?

Source is wrong. GTAIV beats it on 360 alone with many more perfect scores on PS3 and PC. GTAV beats it easily with all platforms combined. The author of the article obviously didn't do much research.

Well the dust hasn't settled for Zelda yet. You have to give it some time. 

Dude, unlike GTAIV, Zelda BOTW will be seen as a great game and a classic long after the dust has settled just like OOT.

You could tell a few minutes into GTAIV it wasnt the game reviews where making it out to be. Thats not the case with Zelda BOTW.

I never said it wasn't, i just said that the dust hasn't settled. Im sure Zelda will be talked about for years to come. My original comment was only aimed at GTA IV and its surprisingly high metacritic score. 



"Nearly more" isn't a record though.

But yeah reception has been terrific, by critics, but also by fans and other gamers it seems. Nintendo, well mister Aonuma and his team, really outdid themselves. This might even break the cursed Zelda-cycle for once!



GOTG it would seem, definite GOTY by the looks of it!

Love the change in title and yeah, it certainly was met with resounding critical acclaim. Certainly caught me off guard.

It's currently 48 for GTAIV on 360 vs 45 for BOTW on Switch. I doubt it'll get many more reviews but we'll see in a few months, I suppose.

As for GTAV on all platforms: wouldn't that be multi-dipping, though? I'm under the impression that some sites would review each version, lending to a duplicative effect and inflating the overall count. It'd be one thing if somebody already separated out the unique reviews from each site. Has that been done?

That's really impressive and a testament to how serious Nintendo takes their craft. Well deserved and well done. Next up for the Switch is what? Mario Kart and Super Mario Odyssey? Not bad for a Console's first year.

Probably Xenoblade 2 too, may it release this year (please )



It's incredible.  I played for 3 hours last nigh, and pretty much didnt do anything.  Just ran around....  Which is awesome.  



It was worth the wait. I can see how it got so many high scores.
