I can't see any game being better than the near-perfect Portal 2.

EDIT: Other than Minecraft ;)

The only games that I think have real shots at Portal 2 are UC3, Skyrim, Dark Souls, and MW3 (it still scores strong critically, although I bet it'll finish a few points lower than the first two).

I have to go with Zelda seeing as all the 3D ones have a 95 or higher on Metacritic.

You didn't post how high it was rated(95). Ocarina of Time 3D is also 95 with quite a few more reviews.

Wow, i can't believe it is that high. It was good but i didn't think it was nearly that good. I'd be much happier if it and Witcher 2 swapped scores. Oh well, i guess i don't often agree with critics.

I don't think it will remain one of the highest rated games of 2011. At least i really hope it wont. I'm a huge zelda fan so i hope it can manage to be well recieved.

Oh weird you're right. I did a search for it and it was listed as 95. But when you click on it, it changes to 94.

Ya its a remake, but if it was 95 it'd still keep portal 2 from being the single highest rated game.

i agree, portal 2 was damn near flawless. the writing, atmosphere, music, controls, pacing and overall gameplay are spot on. a classic in every sense of the word.

Lot of blockbusters coming out. Uncharted, Gears, Skyrim, Battlefield, COD, Zelda. I'm sure at least one of them will surpase Portal.

Minecraft is great but I don't see it out scoring Portal 2.

I was only being semi-serious, but it's doing well so far. (Only one review, but it's an AAAA review 8))

I think it will hang around the high 80's/ low 90's.

No, I think Zelda: SS and Skyrim will pass it.

No, I highly doubt many will get higher than a 95 or even get a 95 on metacritic.

So? It's a remake of quite possibly the greatest video game of all time.

It's going to be hard for a game to beat Portal 2 on MC, maybe Zelda has a chance. I still think The Witcher 2 is the best game to release this year so far.

Look at it this way. Unless Uncharted3 can pull of a SMG2 which I highly doubt it will even thoughI'm interested in the game a bit there's no chance of it beating Portal 2 in reviews.Themain consoleZelda games have always had a track record of scoring in the low to high 90s overall in review scores.The Uncharted franchise doesn;t really have a track record of scoring in the 90 on MC with only Uncharted 2 scoring above 90 on that site. The critc reviews can be above or below 95% for sure for uncharted 3.They maty even go below 90% so don;t rule that out.

He didn't like it because you couldn't get killstreaks or kill anyone I reckon.
