I agree with this. Let's see if The Last of Us, BioShock Infinite, Crysis 3, Aliens: Colonial Marines, GTA 5, and Dead Space 3, among others, end up breaking 90.
That being said, it is true that the bar keeps being raised over the course of a generation. Halo 4, to borrow your example, is being compared against every other major game of this generation. What if it had released -before- games like Uncharted 2, Arkham City, Borderlands 2, or Mass Effect 2/3? Would they have seen a lower score as a result of following Halo 4? It's probably not quite fair, but videogame scores are highly subjective relative to previous games in the same gen.
