If you need proof of what I'm saying about the rating system, just read Tom McShea's comment in this review: http://www.gamespot.com/disney-castle-of-illusion-starring-mickey-mouse/reviews/disney-castle-of-illusion-hd-review-6414005/
ATTENTION EVERYONE! For anyone who cares about the score, I just found out Gamespot doesn't use .5's scores anymore. So this game couldn't have gotten an 9.5, and the argument of claiming that this reviewer thinks Gone Home deserved a higher score than this game doesn't make any sense whatsoever, because besides of being two completely different types of games, they were rated in two different rating scales. Just sayin'... Peace!

@GameBeaten @bruno_fmenedes Thanks! I didn't know that! Gamespot should've had an article of some sort announcing that and explaining their resons for doing it. I think the .5's system worked great but can understand why they probably made the change... I bet that most people the see GTA V's score think the reviewer could've given it a 9.5 (I thought that!) but apparently not XD
@SloganYams @bruno_fmenedes The reviews also take into account the value of the game, so that gamers know is being overpriced or not before buying it. And a 10$ game can't be reviewed in the same way as a 30$ game or a 60$ game, that would be unjust. Plus, I bet the people, like me, that already have the old version want the reviewer to take the price into account, to take into account if there is enough new content and improvements to justify spending all that money in a remake of a game they already have.
@NoblesseOblige_ It's price is 50$. But I agree it's overpriced for a remake with no significant new content. That's probably one of the reasons for the 8.0 this Gamespot's reviewer gave it. If it was priced at ~30$ it would probably have gotten a 8.5 score, IMHO.
