i am guessing it'll be in the 8-9 range, but then again we've seen plenty of games that looked good but turned out to be okay.
also, the lack of hype, marketing and awareness would probably affect how reviewers see this game. they would want to push the game more into the spotlight.
i was just thinking, if watchdogs and destiny didn't get as much marketing and hype, would they have scored higher? i think most reviewers scored those games not solely by the games' merits but also the added "effects" of marketing and hype, which are both external factors.

No matter what, it will score above Destiny. That's the core of the Nemesis System.

PS4 here
My PC isn't used for gaming (nor would it be capable of playing this anyway), so it's between PS4 and Xbox One, so I'm definitely going with the PS4 version.

IGN and now the tweet above say 12AM EST. New York City is the center of the universe anyway so it drives me nuts when embargo lifts are on PST.
I'm guessing 7.2-8.7 range from IGN.

Pc always. Well depending on your specs
PC here. I prefer KB/M and hopefully mod-ability.

If there isn't a Gandalf skin for Talion by the end of launch week I'm going to be disappointed.
Pre-ordered on PS4. Digital Legion Edition.
That's a huge range, lol.
You're preaching to the choir, my friend. I doubt any of the Destiny refugees here will disagree with you lol

PC.
I'm ready to be burned like a balrog. (Yes I know they don't actually look like that, but Jackson's interpretation is hella awesome.)
That's a huge range when

1.5 points
Yeah, I think it's probably just pretty good or maybe it leans great. I don't expect mediocre or masterful.

Lol like 90% of IGN's review scores fit in that bracket, money hats and total bomb are the only exceptions.
Haha hopefully, that would be awesome.

Is someone going to start a review thread? If it score above 8.5 in average I would buy in a heartbeat. Really interested in the game.

Imagine his wizard robe using that cloak physics they use in the game, so good.

I was thinking the same thing, minus the money hat part.

I can already imagine it freaking out like all physics-based stuff does, only this time there will be an explanation... magic!
I'm getting the PS4 version since I haven't bothered getting a new GPU yet.

Xbox One, even though I own all consoles and a great PC, I'm just attached more to my Xbox account especially since most of my friends are there. That's what happens when you stick with MS beginning of last gen lol.

Am I correct that there is NO multiplayer at all in this game?

I think you're right, but who knew Dark Souls II would have a 92 Metacritic (and it's not as good a game as the first two Souls games imo).

The only connectivity is with the nemesis system. Say a orc kills you...That prev may pop up in your friends game slightly more powerful now. Your friend can now try to avenge you for some reward (I think a rune)
Same here. Waiting for tomorrow to check out footage. If the 60fps or unlocked framerate is true I will probably go PS4 for the extra missions.
Well there's no multiplayer, so might as well go for best version. Which seems to be PS4 or PC. But if that's your preference, I'm sure that version will be fine.
If so, hooray!

There are online components (namely the Vendetta system where you avenge your friend's deaths), but no multiplayer.
And it just struck me that the recently-released Gauntlet has WBplay account stuff. I think this bodes ill for Shadows of Mordor, especially since there is an online component.
PS4, digital pre-order. I have a laptop that can run most games, but until I get the funds to build my own desktop, I'll just make do with the consoles.

I just set up my G-sync monitor and I'm running a 780.
So, PC.

I want to get this for my PC... but PS4 Remote Play with Vita has been so good to me... so so good

Yeah, I know. Lmao at the hdmi in suggestion. It's just that I'm attached to my Xbox account and usually after completing games, I like doing the extra stuff while talking with my friends and all. If things like resolution and frame rates bugged me, I would have left consoles a long time ago and played on PC only since that's where the best of the best is if anyone is bothered by those type of things.
Having a girlfriend and a child, remote play has been life saving.
Can't remember what I did before remote play.

This man gets it!
I don't have a child but I have a wife! Lets just say, letting her watch her movies instead of me playing games is always the right choice. Thank you Vita!

Getting my first PS4 tomorrow and this will be the 2nd game I get. So Physical PS4 copy all the way. I think I might lean 80% physical for most of my games this gen. Also remote play with Vita looks pretty awesome!
Polygon
Oh oh oh, so exciting!
PC version for me I think, although I am tempted to go PS4.
PC, can't beat getting the game and season pass for $49.
If you have an nvidia gpu you can stream to any android device via Limelight @ 1080/60 or even use steam in house streaming.
