I think people are forgetting the subtle magic that goes into a game which deserves a high rating. Its very hard to make a game which shines and engages the player in a fun gameplay environment. Theres a reason why games like Gears of War and Halo make people go ape about them and hell you can call Halo 3 generic until you're blue in the face but even if its generic its still a generic which engages the player.
Tease.
