Why do I suspect the real issue isn't so much the 8/10 as the concern by some about "winning" some metacritic score competition?
8 is far from poor, is the same as the score they gave to Gears 3 so it's hardly that odd, and while compared to other reviews it seems at odds with the more consensus view, it's just a score.
How I wish we didn't live in a time of obsession when "scoring" things to assign value to them has gone overboard.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
