I would really like for review sites to stop giving out numeric or letter grades all together ...
Classifying a game (or elements of a game) into a scale of {awful, poor, average, good, great} and possibly associating it to 10 other games that it is similar to in order to aid in making a decision as to whether you’d like it. The way I see it is that it is more meaningful to say that "Borderlands is a great game that you would really enjoy if you liked Bioshock and Fallout 3" than "Borderlands is an 8 out of 10"
