Well, the standardation is off, but like I said. The game still got a nice review. IGN has always been off on standardation, which is why the review score is not an average. If so, then people would go off because they're more lax with their numbers than most.

Well you could say it's the other sites that's off as well given it a 10. IMO no game should get a 10 on graphics unless it is the best looking console game of this generation no matter which console is happen to be on.

 

 Are you saying that each category can only get one 10 per generation?

 

 I think Brawl, Galaxy, and Wii Sports should all have 9.5 to 10.0 scores for everything.  I also feel the same way about Portal, Geometry Wars, Katamari, Advance Wars, and Viewtiful Joe.  Other than that, I'd max out every other game of the past 5 years at 8.0.  Ooh ooh, except No More Heroes, that'd be an 8.8, tied with Zelda.  Hahaha.  This is why I don't review games... yet.  I'd also give Doom a 9.5 and Doom II a 10.0, and then every single FPS since then would be 0.1 less for bringing nothing new to the table, and today we'd have COD4 and Halo 3 in the low 0s and 1s range.  But HL2, CS2, and TF2 would be 9.0, and Portal would be 10.0.
