I agree with you Zen, 100%. Ratchet and clank got a 7.5 from gamespot and Twilight princess and 8.5 or something.
I enjoy lots of games that got bad reviews, and have disliked many critically acclaimed games. I'm sure most everyone has. I like the descriptions for learning what is in a game, and whether or not it's flaws will break it for me, or if I will be willing to overlook them for the games finer points.
I have said it a thousand times and I will say it again. The numerical aspect of Reviews are only used as fodder for fanboy wars. Go look in the topic "wii hit's 20 million sellers" it devolved into a flame war based on numerical ratings of games. That is the only purpose of reviews.
You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.
