The 1510 movement!!!

How do you really justify a 10 point game rating system. What seperates a 7 from a 7.5 or an 8. I mean there is basically only three kinds of games. The ones you hate, the ones you think are average and only worth renting and the ones you think are good enough to own. I am getting frustrated with recent games that are totally awesome in some aspects and totally screwed in others. How can you possable give a good score to something with such little content or such obvious bugs and glitches no matter how good it is??

I think I am going to start using a 1, 5, 10 system for rating games. Hmmm guess that still doesnt help trying to decide if a game is worth playing even if it has bugs. Oh well. Thoughts?? Do you have an easy or hard time picking scores?? I go into games totally unbiased and just react to what the experience is like and how it stacks up to others in its genre, when it comes time for scoring I just go with my gut and feelings instead of from a technical standpoint.

I tend to read full reviews rather than just go on scores. If you read around you should be able to find someone who mentions any bugs, glitches, gameplay problems etc. that someone else may not notice. Once you have done a nice meta-analysis of reviews you can usually decide whether the positive points outweigh the negative points. mercer88
