Re: NPD Predicts Switch Will Be 2018's Best-Selling Console Despite PS4's Current Lead

That list looks about right except for the fact that Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee and Smash Ultimate will be somewhere on that list. Sure, they are only on one console but they are also potential console sellers so I'm pretty confident about my guess.

Also, the only games on that list that pique my interest are RDR2 (still need to play the others though), God of War (recently beat it and it's my GotY so far), Monster Hunter World (have it but haven't played it yet), and Spider-Man (already have it pre-ordered).

@Yasaal I'll be honest with you. The new God of War is my first experience with the series. I think that it is so good that I want to play the rest of the series afterwards. I am aware that it plays differently from the old games but the setting, lore, character design, and simple but refined gameplay of the new one just feels so right to me. If anything, I know more GoW fans who were disappointed by Ascension than this new one. But hey, it's all personal preference.

As for the critics, I think that biases are absolutely prevalent in review culture and perhaps some people are swayed by money in some occasions but I think the reviews for God of War are genuine. I don't think GOTY goes solely to those with the "best graphics". If that were the case, Horizon probably would have won at the GOTY Awards last year. I'm so glad Zelda won just because of how solid and how different they managed to make it from the other series.

@Yasaal Have you even played the new God of War? It's not a remake. In fact, it should have been called God of War 4 because it takes place many years after GoW 3. Also, as someone who typically likes what Nintendo puts out, GoW might become my GOTY. The only thing I could see topping it is Smash or if Bayo 3 or Metroid Prime 4 came out this year and I doubt that either one will.
