The only thing for which I will have the same hype is the final season of Game of Thrones, next year.
Are there timezones with 30 minutes difference? Didn't know that.
Isn't that game sitting at 90+ to?I think Brandon Jones once said that MGSV made him bawl so I don't know if this really means much.
Until this gets all reviewers to inflate their score to get to that 99 MC, at which point David Jaffe comes out to slaughter Atreus and Kratos and just stares into the camera. "Game critique is dead."At the end of the game Kratos and Atreus reaches a very dark place.
Then suddenly brights lights everywhere iluminates the area, after shaking away his confussion he sees a wall with a paint on it, says:"Metacritic score will decide the fate of your son less than 99, Atreus dies"
The game will check the online score of the game at that moment in MC and you will get a definitive ending depending of the score and nothing can be done to prevent the bad ending unless game reaches a 99 in MC.
So, the good ending can't never be viewed by anyone, no matter how hard you try. A metacommentary about how much significance we put into reviews, that's why reviwers thinks is that amazing and why they are sheding tears.
Just enjoy this thread while it lasts y'all. Review thread is going to be a shitstorm no matter what. Let's predict the negative/ridiculous reactions for each score
If it gets around a 97 - "Sony bias?!" "Did Sony pay them off?!" "Any AAA first party single player game is like an automatic 97 anyway. Reviews don't matter"
If it gets around a 94 - "of course it did, only Nintendo and Rockstar games get 97s because of bias!"
If it gets below 90 - "game must suck! Flop confirmed"
I got 60 word pages worth of comments ready for a wall of shame.The people who are waiting to do this are sad and pathetic. Some people are literally waiting to start drama so they can get that hot take opinion quoted for +20 pages. Look at the meltdown Jim got for 7/10 Zelda review for example.
I'll just lurk around for the scores only.
We found the key to a 98 MC score ;)Sean Bean should play one of the Gods only to get brutally murdered by Kratos
Hype afI like this Skill Up guy. His BotW review checks out (thinks the game has issues, but is still a remarkable achievement). His excitement + the fact that he embraces games with great mechanical depth = Me excited
Hoping God of War gets a 97 so I can say that it was nostalgia for old God of Wars that gave it that score.
:^)
Cory posted hereWow this thread has 249 pages!!! What are you all talking about for 249 pages!!!!!!!?
Everytime I hope back in here it grows by like 5 pages. Once the reviews go live, I cant imagine the chaos for good or bad that will arise.
"Those people who were teens when GOW1 came out are now in their 20s reviewing games, nostalgia plays a big part here."Hoping God of War gets a 97 so I can say that it was nostalgia for old God of Wars that gave it that score.

Don't trust these reviewers hype, they just want to get more click, nothing to do with the quality of the game.

This game will force reviews to move to a GPA scale. 4.75 GPA for God of War
Can anyone point me to the post with the recap of the first trilogy!? This thread has grown so fast I'm not sure where the post was.
And Cory!!!! How's it going
"The one thing I don't like about GOW is that is almost too good"

Welp, there's one review I won't be watching for fear of spoilers.
So what is everyone's favorite trailer? For me it's hard to figure if I like the Story trailer or Be a Warrior better.
Source?There will be meltdowns tomorrow, but It won't it be the people that are excited for this game.
Someone asked about that and they said they're only going to be using footage from early in the game, what we've seen in the previews.
