Feedback for the new review system: Keep the graphics, etc scores...

...But have them be superfluous to the actual end score.

I know this may sound more like IGNs current way of doing things, but I honestly think it would help a lot for the quick-glance reviews that users won't actually want to read all the way through. Transformers comes to mind, the good/bad parts help distinguish at a glance where the score is coming from, but that's about it unless you want to read the whole review. Having a small scale like

Graphics - 6
Controls -7
Sound - 6
Tilt - 7

This would at least give users some broad idea on how the games were scored. People like having number values associated with things so they have a feel on where in the spectrum it gets its chops from, and something like this would definitely be an edge. Other than this, I'm really liking the new layout and everything...But it's almost too minimalist.

Thanks for listening/reading. I know there has been many threads about the changes, and I don't want to add to the clutter, but at the same time I felt that this was actual feedback and not the typical groaning.

Quite the contrary in my opinion. I thought it was much easier to differentiate between two games when their scores were 8.3 and 8.7. Now they're just both 8.5 and that doesn't help me at all.

YYEEEEESSSS!!!! Somebody agrees with me about graphics, gameplay scores!! they are really HELPFUL!!
