Logically, for any game to receive a score of 100 on Metacritic, it would have to receive a maximum score from every reviewer that uploads to the aggregate website.
Still, if there’s one game that might stand the best chance of scoring 100 on Metacritic, the odds would be inGrand Theft AutoVI’s favour.
“No.Ocarina of Time(99) andSoulCalibur(98) have the highest Meta scores, but they have less than 25 reviews each. Most modern AAA games have 100-150 reviews,” said 4000kd making a very valid point.
“I’d wager 96-97 is a safe bet. I wanna say 96, belowGTA VIandRDR2only because I’m worried some might score it slightly lower due to the story,” OsamaBeenLagggin replied.
