This brings back memories, as I used to use something similar. After time away from reviewing games, I came to the conclusion a lot of that is fun but unnecessary complexity for what's basically an opinion piece.
If I were to jump back in, I'd use a 1-5 rating system, no .5's, with 3 being GOOD - ie, I wanted a fun football game and got one - 2 and 4 being underwhelming and outstanding respectively, and 1 and 5 being monumental for quality or lack thereof. A separate little paragraph would cover value (possible and likely time investment, worth buying for x amount, etc.), and if the soundtrack is good enough to warrant a separate purchase.
Edit: Considering the nature of patches nowadays, a separate dated paragraph for each major revision seems necessary as well.
