I voted no. It's a bit like when the Aussies voted in a refurrendum on whether to become a republic. Most people wanted to become a republic, but they didn't like the alternative option to staying under the British Monarchy that was put forward, so the majority ended up voting against the republic proposal.
I don't like the number rating system the way it is right now in the gaming world. But all entertainment reviewers use a "quick reference" guide to the overall outcome of their review, and so should games. Perhaps a star rating is better. 5 stars which can only be further broken down by 1/2 stars. KZ2 and MW2 and Uncharted 2 and AC II and Mass Effect 2 and , and, and can all get 4 1/2 stars and the world won't come to an end. They can even get 5 stars, because 5 stars doesn't mean perfection, unlike the implications of a 10/10 or a 100.
Less is more really. It would be nice if VGC tried to lead the charge in the maturation of game reviewing as a critical excercise.
