Metacritic also gives a score of 100 for grades of 'A.' Last I checked, they can give A+, which should be 100. Metacritic's scale is way off.

Everyone knows 1UP used to score on a scale where 5 was average, but fans couldn't handle it because they assume reviews are based on the grading scale used in school. All the sudden metacritic is assuming their grading is still based on C being a 5 when every other publication is using 7. Very odd. Even so, A should be 95 at most, not 100.
