I can see your point with regard to context. But again, I see some validity in the critical reception measurement. And it's not just me. The big 3 have all at some point referred to Metacritic as a measure of their games in one way or another.
You cannot completely debunk aggregate reviews as a measure of game quality or library quality. I a world where personal taste is removed, it is likely that the average consumer would tend to find a large quantity of high quality experiences on the PS2 for example, in line with the critical reception it's library received.
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS
