Review embargos end at noon today.

So far the reviews are a disappointment has its Metacritic score right now is only a 75 so far compared to the last 2 games and like high 80's type of scores.

I have so much to keep me busy for the next year I have a backloaded log of games I have still yet to beat o the Pro and the X. I ll also wait for this on sale.


As I have RDR2 p-ordered on both consoles, just don't have time for it right now.

Mine is pre-loaded. Less than two days away.

That's kind of where I'm at now. I'm trying to get better about only buying single player games once I've finished some other ones first. I really want to play this, but I've just started Yakuza Kiwami 2 and am pretty close to finishing Horizon. I've wasted so much money on games that literally just sit on my hard drive. Sports and multiplayer stuff is a little different to me because they're not quite the time investment. I'm definitely looking forward to playing this, though.

I am with you guys. It’s a 77 on Metacritic right now and probably still changing. Too many games at the moment. Will wait for Christmas. I do think I will end up liking this game better than Spiderman which I’m lukewarm on right now.

Like most the people I want to play this game its just going to have to wait till at best early 2019. RDR, Spiderman and NBA2K are easily enough to hold me over for the next 4 months plus I have a few games in my backlog to hold me over till I get my hands on Spiderman. I really enjoyed the last game just something had to give.


Hopefully the reviews will bump up the 80's when more comes in

Gamespot was a bit harsh with a 6/10. I didn’t like reading that a lot of combat areas are confined, smaller spaces. That and the lack of variety last time (much improved for Shadow tho) bothered me with the second game. The tombs are supposed to be good but the story telling still fails in comparison to Uncharted.
