people saying 8 is a good score need a reality check. In the video game industry where dozens to hundreds of games have achieved well beyond 9 aggregate scores, 8 is horrible. If you look at IMDB, an aggregate of reader scores for movies, you will see that not even the highest rated movie of all time has managed to achieve a 9!! An 8 in that industry is high, in the VG industry it is a joke.

This may very well be the most hilarious post of all time.  And that's saying a lot.  Sorry, man.

As much as I loved RE4, the review scores were a bit high imo.  It deserves at least a 9, but a lot of the scores from reputable ( ... ) sources were closer to a 10 and that felt like a bit much to me.

 

 

If you think this is hilarious, go over and check IMDB. When the highest movie of all time is rated an 8.9 and in the VG industry 9's and 10's are handed out left and right like candies you know something is wrong. An 8 in the film industry aggregate is enormous, in the VG industry, it's the equivalent of about a 5 in the film industry.
