are games that score 4/5 been conned out of potentially a better score if the grading system was out of 100? the simple answer is yes.

 

Reviews need to exist in a vacuum. It does not matter how they affect aggregate scores. Worrying about that is not a reviewer's job.

 

Then reviews need to realise there is a fine line between scoring 4/5......... and 89% out of 100%

Its a potential 9% loss for the game if they go with 5/5............. its WRONG

No it's not. Reviewers absolute should not worry about aggregate scores.

Metacritic is not what people need to worry about. A game is a 4/5 or a 5/5 on that scale. There is no 89%.

Therefore there is no 4/5, percentages are THE MOST ACCURATE way of scoring a game, 9/10,5/5, 4/4, A+/B-, 5/6 ect SUCK
