I like IGN's system. I find it hard to see what makes a game a 9.6 instead of a 9.7. Much easier to see what makes a game a 7.5 rather than a 8. Know what I mean?
And I don't think IGNs editors have been too lenient with their 10/10s. I think they are all justified in the written reviews, with the exception of GTAIV, I remember reading the review for that years ago and thinking the score wasn't honestly justified, it's a great game, but there are significant flaws. I really don't think that game is a 10/10, I wouldn't call it a masterpiece. I don't think a game deserves a 10/10 when it has significant flaws. But I guess that's just an opinion.
I trust IGN, I trust all of the editors that I hear in their podcasts apart from Arthur Gies, but he's not at IGN anymore. I also trust Gamespots score, this sites score, the guardians score and edges scores. To be honest I trust most reviews :P Apart from ones that troll or are just dishonest.
