League Overview:
Welcome to Year 6 of the GameTZ Fantasy Gaming League! This is basically fantasy football with games. Each person picks 10 games and those 10 games make up your "team" for the year. The Metacritic scores for your 10 games are tallied up at the end of the year to determine your total. Highest overall score wins. You also get 2 alternate picks (these should be safe choices) just in case one of your picks gets delayed into 2024. So if you shoot for the moon with a game like Armored Core VI and it gets pushed into 2024, one of your alternates takes its place and you don't end up with 0 points for that game. The goal is to pick games that you think have a very good chance of releasing in 2023. Don't YOLO your way into a bunch of 0s lol.
The Rules:
1. No DLC or Expansions
2. No Ports or Remasters (full remakes are allowed)
3. Alternate picks can only replace games delayed into 2024. They cannot be used to replace games in your top 10 that review poorly.
The Prizes:
1st Place: A $50 Amazon Gift Card
2nd Place: A $20 Amazon Gift Card
3rd Place: A $10 Amazon Gift Card

League Overview:
Welcome to Year 6 of the GameTZ Fantasy Gaming League! This is basically fantasy football with games. Each person picks 10 games and those 10 games make up your "team" for the year. The Metacritic scores for your 10 games are tallied up at the end of the year to determine your total. Highest overall score wins. You also get 2 alternate picks (these should be safe choices) just in case one of your picks gets delayed into 2024. So if you shoot for the moon with a game like Armored Core VI and it gets pushed into 2024, one of your alternates takes its place and you don't end up with 0 points for that game. The goal is to pick games that you think have a very good chance of releasing in 2023. Don't YOLO your way into a bunch of 0s lol.
The Rules:
1. No DLC or Expansions
2. No Ports or Remasters (full remakes are allowed)
3. Alternate picks can only replace games delayed into 2024. They cannot be used to replace games in your top 10 that review poorly.
The Prizes:
1st Place: A $50 Amazon Gift Card
2nd Place: A $20 Amazon Gift Card
3rd Place: A $10 Amazon Gift Card

OP updated with scores for Armored Core 6 and WrestleQuest. They are sitting at 87 and 70 respectively on Metacritic.
Next up should be reviews for Sea of Stars in a few days. Really curious to see how it reviews because the demo was quite good.

So I honestly think I have the top 3 on lock as of now. Unless Spider Man 2 and Starfield both score below 85 which could happen but honestly do not see happening. I think Starfield is gonna average around 89-90 with Spider around the same score. It is gonna come down to Horizon as well. If Horizon scores in the 90s and Starfield and Spider man fall below 90 then heavy4 is gonna take it. Thebest1989 really needs Horizon to review an 89 or lower and will have a good shot at 1st or 2nd depending on Starfield and Spiderman.
Now, I did not look through everyones list and rankings so please forgive me if I am discounting anyone!

It's a close one this year.
Spiderman seems like a solid 85 to me but I'm sure there will be fan service that will push it over the top.

Spider-Man 2 I’ll predict will come in at a 90-93 on MC due to fan padding for sure. Works for me tho. Can’t wait for it.

Yeah, something is odd with their system currently. I see a score for it in search results. But the actual game pages have nothing.
I've been skimming some of the reviews over on opencritic. And even the "lower" score reviews are very positive on it. They are just docking it for not being Fallout 5 or Skyrim 2.0. Which is odd. Not like if this game scored a 99 I'd win anyways.
Looks like its at 87 from 40 on Xbox.
