It is time

Spoiler

96

 

[AmyS]

And so it begins.

 

[Dahaka]

bring on the 10s

 

[Octavianus]

best commercial ever

 

[Dystify]

The reviews will come out right at time. From what I have heard quite a few people will live stream the game right away, too.

 

[LotusHD]

Refreshing you preorder to see if it shipped doesn't count as things to do

I was completing a project...

Spoiler

And also doing that.

 

[massoluk]

I feel like that N64 Christmas kid right now. Highballing it at 98%

 

[mentallyinept]

Prediction: 93 Metacritic.

I'm thinking this is going to get some resistance based on technical issues.

 

[Plum]

It's time. Nothing can stop this hype train now.

 

[WarrenD]

As long as we get at least one review with an 8.8 score I'll be happy. That'll keep the day interesting for sure.

 

[BlueSparrow]

Shaking with excitement already... im nearly 40yrs old

Excitement for Zelda is normal for all ages buddy.

Temper expectations

Don't bust out pitchforks for anyone who gives this game below 90

 

[ckaneo]

We all know this is a Horizon vs Zelda thread in disguise

 

[stalker]

When does emabrgo end exactly?

 

[balgajo]

I will try to look only at scores. Let's see if I can...

 

[AmyS]

#PatchThePlateau

 

[Karanlos]

When does emabrgo end exactly?

in 53 minutes

 

[Octavianus]

I should get out of bed and do things before I end up spending an entire day reading reviews..

 

[LotusHD]

[SinCityAssassin]

When does emabrgo end exactly?

less than an hour.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

Before this thread gets crazy, I want to commend you, Dystify, on your fantastic graphics work. I really admire and appreciate what you manage to put together for a thread on a forum.

EDIT: 90 for my MC guess because I'd rather be under than over. Not that it being under 90 isn't a possibility, of course.

 

[Kolx]

Isn't it a bit early to open a thread? reviews are not out until ~2 hours from now. The first 10 pages won't have anything but "I'm excited" etc... replies.

edit: oh so it's less than hour.

 

[unrenowned]

Would be great if OP could indicate if reviews are for Switch/Wii U or both. Guessing most review copies Nintendo sent out were for Switch though.

Edit: I hope it won't end up a fanboy war, but it's probably inevitable.

 

[MosquitoSmasher]

About 52 minutes left right?

 

[Catvoca]

Not really that excited about reviews since we basically know from the previews that the game is great and will review well. I'm looking forward to everyone shitting on an outlier score as per usual though! 😉

 

[SuperSah]

HERE WE GO.

LES GO BOYZ

 

[Altairre]

That feeling when you're having a blast with Horizon Zero Dawn and know that you can look forward to playing Breath of the Wild immediately after. This year is crazy so far.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

They are less than an hour away.

 

[sazzy]

OK now I'm hyped

Temper expectations

Don't bust out pitchforks for anyone who gives this game below 90

You just know that's going to happen. Just like anyone who gives it a lower than average score is "doing it for the clicks".

This thread gon' be good tho'!

 

[Cloukyo]

The wind, it is... blowing.

Calling 94 MC

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I need to get home so I can sleep but at least I get reviews for the train ride

 

[Nugg]

Don't bust out pitchforks for anyone who gives this game below 90

This is the most important thing to remember. It's important to respect opinions, especially when you're talking about a game you haven't played yet.

 

[Gurish]

First game to exceed the 93 this gen, I'm predicting 95.

 

[13ruce]

Temper expectations

Don't bust out pitchforks for anyone who gives this game below 90

Only if it's a 8.8

 

[CEJames]

86. Come at me.

 

[forknknife]

Posting in the most epic thread for the best game ever!

Still, I bet for a 93 metacritic score... hope I'm wrong and it's higher!

 

[Zemm]

This gif will be getting a work-out I feel

I don't think Jim Sterling got a review copy. Could be wrong, but we might have to wait longer for his review.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I'll go with 93 average.

 

[SpookyBlackFish]

10 and 9 incoming! And certainly some fucking clickbait 6.5! Glorious day!

 

[RedAssedApe]

Guessing 90. Always gonna be a few sites that score it lower than everyone else.

 

[duckroll]

I have waited for this moment for over five years!!!

First game to exceed the 93 this gen, I'm predicting 95.

98.

 

[Octavianus]

People here really do care about that metacritic score huh.

 

[LotusHD]

People here really do care about that metacritic score huh.

Yes.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I'll go with 93 average.

That's my guess.
Not getting too crazy though it could be low.

 

[JayBabay]

I'll go with 93 average.
