I only wanted to point out, that rating purely on "fun" (or with "fun" as the by far most dominant factor) is a double edged sword. It can get a game easy "perfect" ratings, but just as easy there can be very low ratings, if the reviewer didn't feel the game.
If there is a balance of "qualities" and "fun" in ratings you usually get a more consistent view and idealy "fun" should be a logical consequence of a games "qualities", which just isn't always the case.
For example I really liked Bladestorm, although the game can't be really rated higher than 5.5 based on it's qualities. On the other hand I was totally bored by Oblivion, which definately has a higher quality standard than many games I liked, but well.. wasn't fun to me.
