You should read the NX/Switch thread where people were making their predictions man that thread turned into a warzone after Switch launched and did well. |
Do you have a link? That sounds like a fun read lol

Sadly Just like Zelda and Horizon, there will be reviewers that will score it lower to get them "views"
Pocky Lover Boy!

The Metacritic thread will def be a good one to watch. I'm guessing at least a 96 or above. Can't wait for this gaaaaaaame~!

I think it is pretty readable. |
That reads more like an overview than a review. They mostly just described the game, didn't really go in depth or analyze much. I don't know, guess I was expecting to learn something I didn't already know that would help me understand where people saying it's a 10/10 are coming from.

I mean, everyone does reviews differently. There will surely be reviews that go more the angle you're looking for in terms of what specific gameplay they enjoyed so much, although that one does seem to mention a few things. Also obvs in the end what matters most is your own personal review and experience, and can't have that until you've played the game so.

Well their way of doing reviews is not very informative. They didn't even mention any faults or negatives the game has. Doesn't bode well for their credibility in my book. I'll definitely be checking out other reviews though, do we know when the embargo lifts?

Perhaps they felt there was very little in the way of criticisms to be had in their mind? That is a thing you know, it does happen. Even Yahtzee, who makes a living being a cynical, overly critical prick had nothing negative to say about Portal.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a great game, but I just don't see what makes it the god tier 10/10 game that many claim it to be. |

You must of missed the many trailers gameplay and impressions. There's plenty of info to form an educated opinion with now. Everyone is talking like that, myself and those saying it's a 10/10.
Uh no, not every game is a Mario game. If a non-Mario game gets a 10/10, it being a Mario game obviously can't be a reason for the score. |

A wild idea- maybe just try the game when it comes out and see for yourself?
You seem to be obssessed with doing research on the game and trying to add to your "educated opinion" that it already can't be a 10/10, but I think you seem to be forgetting that it's a video game(form of interactive media).
If so many people are raving about it and you can't understand why, then the only way you'll get a true persepective is to actually play the game. All the reviews in the world won't be able to replicate the experience of actually playing the game.
Even if the game isn't a 10/10 for you, I doubt it'll be so bad that you'll regret the purchase.

What I find funny about his "of course it got a 10 it's Mario" sentiment is that Edge did not give a 10 to Sunshine, 3D Land, 3D World, or any of the New Super Mario games.
