That's a very good point.
If a 1-5 gives a game a 1.5, that doesn't neccessarily mean it would have gotten a 3 on a 1-10 scale.
They go by .5, right? So 5.0 is a perfect game. The same as 10.0
Now, 4.5 is the second best score, not 9.0. 4.5 is more like 95%, and 4.0 is perhaps 87% or something.
I think all reviewers should have 4 scores only.
1 - Bad, do not buy.
2 - Average.
3 - Recommended.
4 - Awesome.
Twilight Princess, Halo, Metroid Prime 3, Uncharted, and so on, would go into nr. 3. Only a really great game would get 10 (ala what they have given MP1, OoT, SMG and Orange Box)
