I have a real problem with sites reviewing with the 10 point scale. If anything rates lower than a 6, that is a viewed as bad or below average. So the 1-5 is basically useless.
I actually prefer the show X-Play's reviews. They rate on a scale of 1-5 with no half points. I'm pretty sure that Bioshock, Metroid Prime 3 and Halo 3 will all get a 5 from X-Play. If everyone reviewed this way, the web wouldn't explode with anger every time their favorite game got .5 less than another game.
The only complaints that I feel are justified are of the reviews themselves, namely gamespots poor written review and other reviews that praise the game and insult at the same time.
