| - Scoring like a craft knife through cardboard:
Jurassic World Evolution 2 - first I've heard of this one. The original got in the late 60s-mid 70s, so I'll assume it's going to be a bit shinier and go for 79
Forza Horizon 5 - people are loving this. 93
Shin Megami Tensei V - the one review I've seen so far says it's the best SMT yet, but I'm guessing the grim tone won't gel with everyone. 85
BDSP - think a lot of people are going to give it high marks because older Pokémon, and a lot of others will be underwhelmed. Omega Ruby got 83 on Meta, so I'll say this'll underwhelm faintly in comparison and come in at my second 79 of the month. okay I've seen some leaks now and I'm going to lower it to 74. If that's not okay Muss then just stick with 79.

| Here's hoping I can cling on to my 4th place for another month. - My Georgie Dawes:
Jurassic World Evolution 2: 73%
Based purely on what Muss said!
Forza Horizon 5: 90%
I don't really know anything about Forza other than I think they're pretty well made?!
Shin Megami Tensei V: 86%
I played SMTIV and did not really click with it, but could see how it was good and distinctive, and why critics would like the series. I reckon this will be received pretty well but it's too niche to be big score territory.
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl: 75%
I know I'll probably enjoy this, and it'll be faithful and functional, but probably too much so.

Forza Horizon 5 (Out November 9th) - 92 - Oh like the last one eh
Shin Megami Tensei V (out November 12th) - 82 - Oh like the last one eh
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl (Out November 19th) - 77 - Oh like the last one eh

| I don't mind if you want to substitute Forza for a game that you haven't seen any reviews for. |

| Both Forza and SMTV both got reviews early, as one had a early access version and know people had SMTV had a month early because I guess be rather long to play. |

| If you're happy with me subbing out Forza, Muss, I'll replace it with the new Battlefield game. - Jurassic World Evolution 2:
We'll go for an 80 for this one.
- Battlefield 2042:
CoD/Battlefields never review super well, so maybe a 78 here.
- SMTV:
Will probably do decently. 86.
- Pokermons:
Pokemon never gets lambasted in reviews, but I think this one will be lower than normal. 77

| I've not seen any reviews but have heard Forza is GOTY material, therefore I'll do a Jay: - Jurassic World Evolution 2::
I have no idea what this is, but movie licenses do well these days. 75
- Battlefield 2042::
I have no idea if Battlefield is any good these days. 77
- SMTV::
I have no idea if this series is any good. 79
- Pokemon::
I have no idea. 81

| Just updated the December Games Thread to have some Digital Highlights for a bit a more variety to pick as part of the 4 games for this, but I ask will we be doing Halo Infinite?
Why I ask as it's clearly the biggest game of the month and the campaign isn't out till December 8th, however we already have reviews for the game based on just the Multiplayer component. Scores like we've seen with the Fantasy Critic can go up or down, which will happen for Halo. |

| Hope we're resurrecting this for January Muss? I thought it was fun, and we all need more of Buska's 'scores' in our lives. |

| Yeah I'll bring this back, haven't jotted up the scores for November yet. But I'm fine with doing Pokemon Legends, Windjammers 2, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction , and... um oh Christ I have no idea what the last one should be. I guess Cricket 22. Yeah. Cricket 22, as I don't think you get annually released cricket games so nobody will have any idea what the duckworth lewis will be.
The first games come out on the 20th, so plenty of time to put your guesses in (and for me to jot up the scores). |

| - Let's-a go:
Pokémon Legends - Ooh boy, I don't know how to feel about this. I'm a bit worried that Game Freak don't have the nous, or indeed the time, to do anything particularly impressive outside their comfort zone, and it could all go horribly wrong. I hope not. 82Windjammers 2 - 1 has 81, so I'm going to say this shoots a bit higher and gets 85Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction - Are these games any good these days? I'll say it's going to be a tad worse than Siege. 77Cricket 22 - 60. Nah, I'll guess it'll drift slightly higher and get 62

| - My January Predictions:
Pokemon Legends: 77
"Hey, Mr. Peterson, Jack Frost nipping at your nose?
Yeah. Now let's get Joe Beer nipping at my liver, huh?"
Windjammers 2: 80
"How are you today, Mr. Peterson?
Never been better, Woody. You know, just once I'd like to be better."
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction: 78
"What's happening, Mr. Peterson?
The question is, Woody, why is it happening to me?"

| - January Scores:
Pokemon Legends - 75
Seems like some folk are tired of main pokemon games now & the stupid visuals argument won't help it.
Windjammers 2 - 88
Jam the wind baby!
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction- 70
I can't see this getting any higher than what Back 4 blood did.
