Two very good points brought up in this thread so far:

- I'm really looking forward to playing Lightning Returns, but if it's reviewing like this I might just wait a month or two until it's in the bargain bins.

- He gave XIII-2 a 5/10. I really, really loved XIII-2. Therefore I don't much care for this review.

Thats why I think the text is so much more important than the score at the end. This seems to be a reviewer who uses the full 0- 10 scale, with 5 beeing average.

I have liked a lot of "average" (or games that other people think are average) games over the course of the years.

Btw. didn´t FF XIII-2 drop to 15 pounds in just one or two weeks in the UK ? I remember that someone talked about the price dropping even faster in Britain than in america.

I thinking you're misusing the scale. 5 is mediorce. A game that isn't good but not bad. I would hope that the competence of the industry would lead to more good games than bad games. So, you'll never an average of 5, because life doesn't work on a bell curve.
