Holy crap its at 96 with 44 reviews so far!!  I expect it to settle down between a 94 and 95. 

Definitly RPG of the year and contender for overal GOTY!

Yeah, this game is going to definitely settle in the 90's
But like there was any doubt, right?



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

Obligatory dick measuring Gaming Laptop Specs: Sager NP8270-GTX: 17.3" FULL HD (1920X1080) LED Matte LC, nVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M, Intel Core i7-4700MQ, 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3, 750GB SATA II 3GB/s 7,200 RPM Hard Drive

I expect it to settle in at a 95. Metacritic has the annoying habbit of randomly throwing in some low score reviews after awhile. This happened to both Uncharted 2 and L4D2, amongst others.

As for the highest rated game this year, I think it will be Super Mario Galaxy 2. The first one got an average of a 97. All the second one has to do it match it.



Nah, I think SMG2 will be more of the same, it's gonna be 90+ for sure, but it's not gonna have the same impact, it won't be "the new thing". But hey, I don't care about Mario and think it's insanely overrated, so i'm probably wrong.

What i'm finding weird atm is the amount of ME2 PC reviews that give it 88 or 89, which is very specific in that those reviewers still feel the game isn't great enough (although reading the actual reviews, that's not what they say).



Still at 96. I reckon I am around halfway through.

Epic game.
