MGS 4, Halo 3, Crysis,  Mass Effect, and Bioshock all seem to have potential

mass effect, bioshock, metroid prime 3, metal gear solid 4, halo 3, or crysis are my picks to pull it of.

I doubt anything this gen will break 9.6, but I'm hoping that Spore will.

call me crazy, but I have a crazy feeling that Mario Galaxy has a chance to surpass 9.6, and even has a shot at AAAA. I mean Myamoto is a genius and it looks like this new Mario game has the charm of the better games in the series, and some of you don't realize how good the Mario games have been, some of you have really lost sight of that. There have been 6 games in the series and 80% of those games are pretty much universally considered among the greatest games of all time (Mario Bros. 1, Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and Mario 64), no series can come close to that domination. It would be like if 9 of the games in the Final Fantasy Series (FF1-12) were as critically acclaimed and influential as Final Fantasy 7. And I'm not a Nintendo Homer either, for example despite all the hype it's getting from Sheep I think Metroid Prime will be the first sub 9.0 Metroid Prime.

It won't be Mass Effect: Kotor only got a 9.1, and that game was amazing. I'm going to say GTAIV, because Gamespot seems to love GTA.

I'll go with Crysis and Spore.  I'd say Half Life Episode Two too, but they'd dock points for it being too short.

Metal Gear Solid 4 : Guns Of The Patriots or Devil May Cry 4 or Motorstorm or maybe Killzone 2 who knows :)

AgentA-Mi6

MGS 3 --- 8.7

DMC 3 --- 8.7

Killzone --- 6.9

What on earth makes you think that any of those titles you listed will even reach AAA much less score higher than 9.6?   By the way, a game hasn't scored higher than 9.6 in 5 years...

I'll take the safe route, either:

Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Super Mario Galaxy

or

Metroid Prime 3

this dude is right, gamespot will find a reason to give those games low scores example killzone 2 the good extremly fast gameplay great graphics the bad little fuzzy lines on the gun make it extremly annoying when you play

Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Super Mario Galaxy

or

Metroid Prime 3

DS_fan_atic

SSB --- 7.5

SSBM --- 8.9

SMS --- 8.0

MP2 --- 9.1

What safe route was that?  I'm just saying this whole topic is kinda pointless to begin with because no game in 5 years has surpassed 9.6....I can't even begin to think of a game that even has the remote possiblity of reaching a 9.7 or higher.

I know, that's why I said Gamespot loves GTA. Those games have scored consistently high here, which is why GTAIV has the best chance.

Halo 3
MGS 4
DMC 4
Final Fantasy 13

Have very little chance of breaking the barrier because that they all will recycle the main gameplay mechaincs an new ideas and concepts are very important to Gamespot once you breach 8.5.

MP3 and GTA 4 have a slightly larger chance than the previous 4 because they are likely to be qiute a bit more different from their previous installments.

But where the real chance stands in new games that is based on something completely new like.

Mass effect (most likely to be first)
Spore
Crysis
Banjo 3 (this one stands as much of a chance as a new game because its been nearly a decade since the last one.)
The Crossing (that game is either going to be one of the best games ever or it's going to flat out suck)

DMC4 WILL NOT EVEN GET AAA and how dare you say that Halo 3 wont score high because of recycled gameplay mechanics, then go on to say GTA4 of all things would...

It wont be a PC game, even Starcraft got a 9.1 becuase of the PC's higher standards.

GS tends to underate MGS games, Mass Effect? KOTOR got 9.1 I beleive, it would have to be amazing.

Im guessing GTAIV if Jeff reviews it maybe even 9.7... we'll see.

KILLZONE 2!!!

JP JP JP JP JP!!!! :P That would be uber ownage if that happened though...but it won't :P. My vote goes to Mass Effect. What say you?

DA_B0MB

KILLZONE2 ?  LMAO. This game is going to be like a torpedo hitting a sinking ship when it launches.  For Sony's sake I hope all those coders they have working overtime on this baby have a real system seller on their hands or else.

No idea. It's way too early to score-hype games like Halo 3 and MGS4.
