I presume the one score of 90% that is mentioned is from GAMES tm magazine.
They do not give out fractions of a whole so it was either 9 or 10 from them for SMG.
I previously incorrectly stated the magazine gave HALO 3 10/10, when actually it was 9/10

This is what they say about the way they score reviews:

"Three of the numbers in a ten-point scale are of greater importance than the others: five, seven and of course ten. Some publications would fool you into believing that a 7/10 game is average, but that just not make sense to us.
GAMES tm reviews videogames on their entertainment value, and so any title that simply performs to an edaquate standard will recieve a 5/10.
The elusive 10 is reserved for games of incredible irrefutable qualit, but please be aware that a score of 10 no way professes to mean perfection.
Perfection is an unattainable goal, and on a 10 point scale nothing should be unattainable."


I will also post this in the offical thread.
