Title: Red Dead Redemption 2: bet on the metacritic
Post by: Legend on Oct 19, 2018, 05:47 PM
Main Betting Thread (http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?topic=6810). Give a high, medium, and low prediction. Please see the main thread for a breakdown of how scoring works.

IE you expect it to get a 95 so you set that as your middle. Then you set 97 as your high because you don't think the game has a good chance of scoring above that. Then you set 88 as your low because you don't expect the game to score lower than that.

Review embargo ends when the countdown ends. Feel free to post predictions and edit them up till that time.

I thought GTA V did better.  

You right, there's like no way that it'll match IV .

Yeah GTAV was 97, IV was an outlier. I think 97 is possible but 95/96 is most likely.

Would be the biggest shock of the century as far as game reviews go.

Opencritic says you're 10 hours too early with this countdown. So does my memory.

I see some clickbait reviews bringing it down from its rightful 102 score.

There's already one 5/5 review on opencritic which says it's one of the games of the gen. Not so surprising but still a good sign.

It's happening!

Given how much Spidey sold, I wonder how much this game will sell. 5m+ combined in the US first month?

Benji expects it to have a better launch week than Blops 4, but with Blops 4 having much longer to sell he thinks Blops will claim #1 for the month. He also said COD is looking to be down a fair bit YOY, mainly thanks to lacking BF and not having as many days tracked. WW2 sold 4.4M in Nov last year, so seems to me like Benji is expecting RDR2 to fall short of 4M or just around 4M.

And that sounds about right to me, if I were to make a guess I'd say 4-4.5M for RDR2.

I'm thinking around 300-400k FW in the UK as well, which would be quite far above Blops 4. This one is harder to judge though.

Also just a heads up, this is a big game and it deserves its own review thread. This thread will stay focused on our predictions and what not.


Who wants to claim the review thread?

So its looking like its 97/98 right now. If it does manage to reach 98 all that does is give negative points to Legend and kerotan right? As pez, Pi and banana will still be joint 1st.
