I think it really isn't a problem. We just need to know where the line between a game you'll pay good money for and a game you won't is (which is usually 7/10). Everyone knows something below a 7/10 isn't worth getting. A movie only costs 6 bucks to see in the movies so a six or a 5 in a review isn't bad, plus they are much more subjective; some might think a movie sucks when others say it's a classic. With games it's usually quite obective which ones suck and for which reasons (graphics, polish, controls etc...) The 7/10 avarage is something us gamers know and can relate to since we bought our first nintendo magazine (at least this is the truth for me). Game reviews are by gamers for gamers and as long as this stays this way, no probs. At least on my behalf.
