This seems like a solid 8-8.5 game. Excellent. Really looking forward to playing it.

 

[Memento]

Wow. I did not expected this at all! 9s and 8s all over the place :0

 

[jacobeid]

I'm surprised to see such high scores and not surprised to see such a low score from Phil Kollar.

 

[Turkoop]

Oh Polygon...

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

Polygon - 6.5/10

Expected.

@notaxation

I can finally talk about Until Dawn. I loved it. I'm surprised to say it's one of the best games of the year. Clever, engaging, and unique.

 

[FelipeMGM]

Polygon gave it a 6.5

Polygon - 6.5/10

As per usual a bullshit review by Polygon!

 

[The Last One]

Gamespot 8.0? I am impressed considering DKC:TF was 6.5.

So?

 

[Justice_Bolt]

Of course Polygon... Lol

I hope Giant Bomb has a Quick Look ready.

 

[LiquidGotti]

Wow this game is getting great reviews. I'm kind of shocked to be honest. Guess I'll pick it up tomorrow

 

[Stilton Disco]

Better received than I expected!

Polygon being blatantly biased as usual mind, but still, great numbers.

Review in a few minutes, but spoiler - I loved the SHIT outta Until Dawn.

 

[Jigorath]

Polygon - 6.5/10

This is gonna derail the entire thread.

 

[Subterranean]

I was really expecting this to tank with reviews but wow, this is surprising. Probably going to get this tomorrow.

[Ledhead]

Wow, was not expecting it to review so well. I still plan on getting this, but further down the line after I have completed my backlog/MGSV

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Well, these reviews have surprised me. Seems to be a better game than I thought. I'll probably grab this when I get a PS4 soon.

[Vaga]

Polygon gonna polygon, great to see it's gettin good reviews overall, it's a really fun game.

 

[krimsoncharge]

great reviews. well done supermassive and co. sony will breathe a huge sigh of relief regarding QD's game and will give it a much bigger push than Until dawn.

 

[esmith08734]

GameTrailers with an 8.5? Woah, need to check this out.

 

[On Demand]

Nobody ever gets my sarcasm.

 

[Volcynika]

Polygon review seems to make a legitimate case for the score, if you actually read it.

 

[Javin98]

Polygon - 6.5/10

LOL, Polygon. This is not surprisingly at all.

 

[biglittleps]

wow! it's getting 8+ scores mostly which I did not expect. Seems like supermaasive games got their first big hit.

 

[Lime]

Sounds really great. I'll probably try it out at some point when I have more time.

 

[XxRampage07xX]

Oh wow, so many good reviews. The game is doing much better than I expected

 

[LiK]

holy shit, both Sterling and Klepek loved Until Dawn.

 

[Ricky_R]

Nobody ever gets my sarcasm.

Then you must know the root of the problem.

There's nothing legitimate about Polygon, NEVER!

 

[labaronx]

Judging by previews most people seemed to like the game so the scores aren't too suprising. Already downloaded on my ps4 for when i get off work tonight

I don't like giving clicks to Polygon.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

Indeed.

Having issues with (many) QTEs is a legitimate complaint, especially if they lead to a characters death. And others have mentioned the story.

 

[TheSlySoul]

holy shit, both Sterling and Klepek loved Until Dawn.

Honestly it seems like a fun game with a few minor issues. Even the Metro 6 review really didn't even say much besides "I didn't find it scary".

 

[jacobeid]

https://twitter.com/notaxation/status/635829358960246784

This is all I really needed to know

Excited to play this even if I am a little scaredy cat.

 

[Javin98]

I think this may actually end up getting a Metascore of 80+ or at the very least, 75+. Surprisingly good reviews overall.

 

[Volcynika]

I don't like giving clicks to Polygon.

Good for you?

This is a weird website name to be reviewing a PS4 game

Polygon - 6.5/10

quote from their review:

Until Dawn exists within a strange duality. It's a game that's generic while being unlike anything else I've ever played. It's bad in some very evident ways, and yet I want everyone I know to try it. It's not a great game, probably not even a good one, but it does things I want every narrative-based game going forward to learn from. I'm still fascinated by it, still planning more playthroughs for myself, still wanting to recommend it to friends. Until Dawn's greatest mystery may be how it manages to remain compelling in spite of such huge flaws.

Push Square 8/10

[Chamber]

I'm surprised at the surprise it's reviewing well. Always looked like a fun game.

 

[Tratorn]

So mostly nice scores overall, but some sites that count more on metacritic, gave it lower than average scores, so that'll hurt its metascore.

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

What's wrong with Polygon?

EDIT: great reviews so far, i was expecting worse.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

LOL

Yeah, but they were bought by a group that reviews everything, so they have console reviews on their site.
