The Last Guardian review embargo lifts on December 5th at 7am PST/10am EST/16.00 CET

My only concern is whether there will be a watermelon ending. I expect this game to get the same reception ico and sotc got if they were released now. So I dock 2 points off for technical problems so it's a 8 and add/subtract 1 point depending on the games story and ether it appeals to you.
 
I've seen a lot of people dump Trico's stubborn AI, but honestly, when I previewed this earlier in the year I found it to be one of the most refreshing gaming experiences I'd had in a long time.

I'd gotten so used to predictable AI over the years that followed at a set distance behind or alongside me - moving when I moved, idling when I idled - that it was genuinely exciting to be lumped with a companion that really seemed to have a mind of its own.

I remember coming to the end of the corridor and this big ledge that fell away in front of me. I was doing the ordinary gamer this of iching towards the edge and carefully peering over to look for traps when the giant dog-bird bounded over my head and crashed down below me.

It reminded me what asshole my cat is and it really just made me smile.
 
My expectation is low 70's. especially after seeing the trophy list:

Lightning Emissary
Reach the end of the game in 5 hours or less.
 
Do you know what's going to be worse than review thread?
The DF framerate test thread.

"They have been working on this for 10 years and they could not even get 30 fps locked"

Framerate dropping should be noted and score be lowered dependent on the reviewers tolerance (also based on overall experience) but that thread will be terrible.

Resident Evil had a reward for finishing it in under three hours that would certainly have been a trophy now. Don't really see the correlation of game time and quality.

Disclaimer: I have no interest in this game.

Yeah, I'm not sure how that thread will go but probably not well.

Tom did all the coverage for it so we'll see how it goes.

I choose not to do this one since I wanted to savor the game for myself without deadlines.

The remake actual does have that trophy.
