So is an 8.0 like a 10.0 for the Wii now?

In my opinion "10" is a score that shouldn't be given to any game.

 

I wouldn't agree with that. I just think that it should be very difficult to get.  For it's time Super Mario 64, for example, probably should have gotten a 10.  Some of the newer games that are getting 10's are only getting them due to hype, anti-Wii bias, or that they're being paid off or all of the above. 

I agree with you... I think Wii reviews in terms of scores (even though I don't really like the scoing system) are pretty good, like Endless Ocean is an 8 on IGN, which is an excellent score.

Many non-Wii games in particular (and Zelda too, even though I love the franchise I think it is often scored too highly) are getting 8s when they are thouroughly mediocre games..... so it's not that websites are anti Wii, it's that they have experienced a score inflation for PS360 games that are essentially last gens average games beefed up slightly.
