Why do people hate low review scores?

[Runa216]

I know Noobs love Eddie Gordo the same way Noobs like Maxi...button mash to cool-looking excellence.

But like I said, in my time with tekken I've liked about a half dozen characters and my love for Eddie has nothing to do with noobishness, but because I love the style. my favorite in Tekken 4 was Hworang, loved how he switched feet and styles on a whim, making for some awesome combos. Law was also kind of awesome.

and I agree, I hate high scores. I've only ever given two games super high scores since reviewing for the site, one of which in retrospect deserves a slightly lower score (Resistance 3 deserves perhaps an 8.6 or 8.7, tops, I gave it a 9 because...well, I was really overjoyed at the fact that it had health and a weapon wheel, not to mention the game's presentation, controls, length, and all that jazz was really good.) I stand by my Dungeon Defenders review and think that should be higher now that I've spent almost 100 hours on it without growing bored of it.
