There is no score
========================
All this demonstrates Polyphony’s time since Gran Turismo 4 has, on the whole, been well spent. There’s a massive amount to see and do, some features we’ve not seen before (the mid-race day/night transitions are beautiful) and the insane amount of detail on the Premium cars will ensure that the game’s Photo Mode will find favour with photography enthusiasts just as much as it would with motorsport fans – GT5 is capable of some amazing looking real-time shots, some of which are dotted about this article and are untouched, straight from the game.
So, gran Turismo 5: finished, complete, perfect. Right?
No, not quite, but it’s pretty damned near close. Gran Turismo 5 is essential gaming for race sim fans, something that will grow with you the more you play. Sure, there’s some visual issues here and there and the game’s UI is fussier than it needs to be, but as a racing game, which is presumably the reason everyone’s buying the game for, it’s unmatched, unrivalled and as comprehensive as you could have ever hoped for. It’s unfair to score the game at this point, though, we’re barely a quarter of the way through A-Spec and less through B and it has continued to get better every step of the way.
But it doesn’t matter anyway – just go and buy it.

I beg you people to read the entire review at the link below. TheSixthAxis is definitely far more creditable and publish unbiased accurate reviews. Just read the whole thing.

Says who? That just sounds like... this review is positive therefore its accurate.
You cant pick and choose and really it doesnt matter that some reviews are lower than expected. Just get the game and be happy.
There is no conspiracy, its all becoming a bit paranoid.

Yes, there are. A lot of reviews without online mode and just some hours of play? Sorry but the actual review system is broken... not for GT5 but for all game on the market.
IMO.

My only criticism at this point is them not handing out lower scores more frequently, to help separate high ranked games from one another. We're at the point where if a game rates below 70 on Metacritic, then it's seriously flawed and may even suck for some - when 70 "should" represent an alright game (which now, sits at low 80's rated games). Where as movies that rate in the 60's are considered positive reviews!
Now, while I do agree with there being flaws, I do not believe reviewers are stupid and do not represent a good benchmark for taste, because they do. I do on occasion find myself disagreeing with reviewers on some games - but not many. That's for your better judgment to decide, just like every other industry. I feel the scores just need to be scaled properly - and I feel they've felt enough heat for the GTA4 fiasco to make that mistake again.
