I don't understand some of you people....

If a 10 is a stupid score because it means the game is perfect, which no game is perfect, then the best score would be a 9.9...and then sooner or later after soo many reviewers start giving 9.9's, meaning that's the most perfect anybody will get, a 9.9 would become the new 10....then everybody will say the 9.9 is now lame and they will just pay attention to just 9's...and the cycle will just continue on and on....

I think the understanding of giving out 10/10 for everybody is that yes, we all know a game will never really be perfect, but it is that good that it is hard to make things any better than it already is. Does SSBB deserve that score? I don't know, since I don't have the game yet....but what I do know is that this game is already legendary....Nintendo has done more than it had to in order to please video gamers of all types, whether you are a Nintendo fan, a casual, or even a SEGA fan or a Solid Snake and Sony fan...and yet they still went beyond what is required of them to do. They could just give us Melee, added three or four new stages, added three or four more characters, improved the graphics a bit and call it a day. Enough gamers would buy the game to call it a success and we would move on with our lives. But we all know that didn't happen. It's more than what people should expect of Nintendo to do.

Of course, I know I am going to get the response "Bu...But-but...what about the voice chat?!?!....no leaderboards or stats?!Lammeee1!!...Mario is teh gayz lololol..." blah blah blah but in the end of the day for every one of you who have that opinion need to know that there are a hundred more who just don't give a crap...they want a game that is fun, a game they can play with their friends next to each other, play the game, order a pizza and have a blast. And if they aren't there, there is still plenty to do just on your own to keep you busy....So I don't know about you, but that kind of experience alone, deserves at least a 9...and the way Nintendo perfected the game and added as much as possible without alienating those who are just casuals, that in my book warrants a 10 out of 10....

But of course, scores like these are opinions only so who gives a damn in the end right?

 

Edit: azrm2k explains the perfect score part a bit better than I did, but yeah exactly that...everybody knows anything human beings makes are automatically faulty, but we still recognize that there are certain things are perfect, in the sense that they get as close to it as possible...so yes, certain games do deserve a 10/10 and anybody who disagrees to it will tell all their faults, but we all know that the only reasons they don't agree about it is because they just don't have a taste for that game, end of discussion. No need for further explanation, reasons or excuses. Nothing to be ashamed about it....(unless its a game that is universally accepted as one of the greatest ever and you claim its the poorest ever...then you are just somebody who cries for attention and needs a hug.)
