I think they are being fair. Last gen they were way too generous. Even average games were getting good scores and which they didn't deserve.

Agreed. This might potentially add a bit of pressure on developers, forcing them to make better and more poilished games.

Thank Arceus we have Nintendo!!!!! :P

Well.. Nintendo's games haven't been scoring that high either. Wii U's first year was pretty average wasn't it?

Thats true but for wat its worth, it had few games and it has the current highest Metascore game of this gen :) http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193641&page=1
