Poll So which outlet will be the one to lowball this game in the reviews? (455 votes)
We all know some site will do this just for hits, so let's make a game of this. Make your predictions now. Also by "lowball" I mean give an 8/8.5 instead of a 9 or a 10 because we all know that's a terrible score, but it's just low enough to drive gamers into a frenzy. Also I'm sure I'm missing some sites, but I got the main ones covered so whatever.
If I had to make a guess I'd say people will vote for Polygon or Gamespot. Both seem to be notorious for giving out harsher scores. Gametrailers is a bit of a dark horse to me. However you want to take reviewers into account. I wanna say most sites have stated who will be reviewing the game for them. I know Chris Plante will be for Polygon (if it was Arthur this would probably the the frontrunner), and Jeff for our own Giant Bomb. No idea for IGN. If Tom McShea does for Gamespot that seems like a shoo in for the winner, but I'm unsure. I'm sure some are thinking Jim Sterling, but I don't think so.
This is mostly for fun and my own curiosity, so don't take it SUPER serious.
