Eurogamer Germany 7/10:

"[...] Luigi's Mansion qualifies as a really good game. It's just not the fantastic one it could have been."

Statements like this make me cringe.

Because they are vague and smell of undue criticism?

Because they should take the game and review it for what it is and not for what they wish it would be. Nobody took Skyrim and measured it up against some imaginary perfect RPG, even though it has glaring flaws.

This doesnt make sense, if a game has glaring flaws thats why it probably is getting s 7 and 8s instead of 9 and 10s. I reviewer probably noted some flaws or even design decisions where he/she felt that the game would have been even better if it was ironed out.

That's not what the review says.
