Gaming - What is Gamewise... - View Post

Well maybe this comes back a little to the whole "review scores are broken" idea. A five star rating with half stars gives 10 points you can rate - that should be enough if you consider a 2.5/5 as average rather than 7/10 as average... Scores have all become too inflated these days which is why you feel like you need more points at the top end to differentiate.


Yes, I agree about this, that's why I mentioned PCZone, they weren't generous at all with their ratings. Obviously, reading often reviews or reading or asking other gamers' opinions before buying, not buying just launched games, and, except a few rip-offs and a few average games, having gathered a library of games consistent with my tastes, the average score I give to my games is quite high, but I know it's a very personal opinion, it won't ever be a professional rating, and I wouldn't trust self-proclaimed professional reviewers giving too many games the high scores I give only to my limited selection of games.
