so if 9.9 is the highest score you want any game given the scale is from 0 - 9.9 which makes 9.9 the new 10.....this is possibly the most pointless thread outside off topic.

10/10 doesn't mean perfect, where did you get this Idea from? Maybe people shouldn't get A's or 100% marks in exams either?

For 'ME' Portal is a perfect game, but even that begs question - what really do you mean by perfect? Does everyone have the same veiw on perfection?



That is a great point.  I would like the OP to think with me.  Let's say your argument holds true, and 10.0 means perfection.  Then the reviewer plays an awesome game (say GTA IV) , it's the best he's played so far but it does have a single dropped frame during an intro, he wants to give it a 9.9, but then he thinks again, GTA V, might be more awesome than this, and when it does come out, he might like it better, so he should reserve 9.9 for that and give this one 9.8, but then again what about GTA VI,  so let's get GTA IV down to 9.7, and on an on, it will go.  SO a mythical GTA might come out one day, that will have really good looking hookers that will let you really touch, smell, and taste them, and after you've done them the health they give you actually means health in real life too.  We should reserve 9.9 for that, because even that one is not perfect, then all GTAs between then and now we reserve lower scores.  Since GTA IV is not bad, we give it 0.1, all other games get 0.0.  Pursuit of perfection is folly.
