Will Super Mario Odyssey be the first game with a 100 Metacritic

No, there will never be a game with a 100 Metacritic scrore no matter how good it is.

No, because I'll give it a 70 at most.

No /thread

>>382147071
this. Contrarianism will always reign supreme, even if a game was truly 10/10 (there hasn't been one yet, doubt there ever will be) someone would rate it 0 or 50 or something just because.

review scores dont matter and its entirely idiotic to base purchasing decisions around them

>>382146947
No game will ever get 100, even if there is a perfect game that everyone unanimously believes is 10/10, some controversial titjob will give it a lower score for clicks.

>only 100
Step up Your game. Metacritic is gonna create a even higher score which will be represented by a golden star.

>>382146947
All ~100 people who review it would have to score it 10/10. Even one 9 would knock it down csnce Metacritic doesn't round up, only down. 99.987 would be listed as 99, not 100.

>>382148395
Metacritic mattered for BotW and Uncharted 4. It didn't for ARMS or The Last Guardian. Take that as you will. Generally, I believe Metacritic score matters but fanboys will constantly flip-flop when an exclusives gets a great/bad score.

A game as derivative as mario doesn't deserve a 100 score, regardless. Imitating RARE when you've run out of ideas isn't innovation, and besides mario is too long running for it to get a 100. My definition of good (tm) mario is probably not the same as yours.

tetris is far from perfect, it's continually being refined, and even then, if you want to talk the original, it's way way way too easy. Speed never reaches an apex of challenge like TGM series does, it's always just plain tetris, not enough to it.

But it's used very tastefully. It's not even waggling, it's just a flick of the wrist, which feels extremely natural to use, it doesn't tire out your arm and is generally very well integrated into the gameplay, as is the pointing.

I think barely any game uses the wiimote system to its full potential and it usually ends up being a hindrance, but the Galaxy games absolutely nailed it.

In fact, I think it won't even beat BotW's 97. It'll probably be at 94 or 95 or so.

Unfortunately, TLOU is a cinematic experience, meaning we mustn't pay attention to its score since it is falsified and invalid.
BotW is neither, so its score is legit.

The reason it got a 98 is because all the video game magazines at the time had very basic scales and it got a 9/10 and 10/10 most of the time. With Internet reviews today there's more people out there and more opportunity to be a contrarian and vote it differently.

Because of how much attention you children gave jim sterling over his botw review, expect a few more people to do the same thing with their review. Congratulations, you just played yourself.

This is the truth. Imagine if we were back in 1997 with the same sort of grading system, clickbait and social media we have today. Someone would give Ocarina of Time a 50 by making some pointless or off the mark nitpick.


It would be great if Nintendo tried to bar Jim Sterling's reviews because they're clearly biased and he has said in the past people should steal Nintendo games. The amount of butthurt it would generate would be great.

Even if it isn't lightning fast like some of the more recent Tetrises, you aren't afforded these forgivable infinite T-spins. If anything I find the original Tetris harder because mistakes can't be undone as easily as they can in recent ones. You can't just slide your pieces along surfaces for long periods of time, or spin them around forever.

But that's just me.

You know what's funny? In the old days of Nintendo Power, they had an extremely strict grading scale and even in the golden age of 8 and 16 bit gaming. They NEVER, EVER gave a perfect score to any game in ANY of the categories they rated. The closest anyone got was 4.8 out of 5.0. In anything.

Nintendo knew how to grade games back then and knew a perfect score would mean it was the end all.

Either way, you're all missing the fucking point. Ocarina of Time got a 98 because it came out in an era when it could still do that. It was that mentally where perfectly playable but average games could get stuck with a 40 just because some IGN writer hated it, now you can release a buggy piece of shit and you can still get a 70.

Thanks for the reminder, anon!

JIM STERLING LAUGHS AT YOUR 100

>It's not perfect if one asshole decides to rate it 0 out of 10 for shits and giggles

This is why review scores are fucking worthless

Holy shit Nintenbros can't be this delusional. Can they? My goodness.

Give me a good game

I'm a massive Witcher 3 fan but the XP and level system alone drop it down to a 9/10.

Mario Odyssey looks pretty generic desu. Not sure why people unanimously rate it 100 on the Metacritic charts.

>>382150460
why not

Whoa whoa whoa. Are you saying a professional gaming journalist is a hypocrite and a retard? Stop the presses!

It could score a 150 and i still wouldnt buy it because im not enabling nintendo to keep pumping out mario games while they let better franchises rot.

Xd look mom im do da odyssy !! =ddDdD

Such as?

>>382146947
If it did, Jim Sterling would give it a 4/10 review to mark it down.

>>382146947
No because Sonybros are going to get triggered en masse and give it 0 ratings like they did with BotW

>>382152381
What has Shadman become?

even if it deserves it, there's too many "journalists" nowadays for all of them to be honest. there will be some run-of-the-mill child who wants to engage in console wars, or who is mad about nintendo's youtube monetization, or something else just like that who will give it a low score on purpose.

I've said this a million times but the only perfect game so far is called "Snake" and I'm not even kidding. It's absolutely flawless.

>>382162968
>>382149817
Both of these are correct. Mario platformers got better until they peaked with Galaxy

>>382146947
Odyssey may prove to be BotW's equal, but not its superior.

>>382163156
But which iteration of snake?

My vote is for Pajama Sam's version.

>>382149448

>>382146947
>100 possible
Nope there will always be one review that's biased/contrarian like Jim Sterling in order to get views on their site.

>>382163156
Unironically this
