Actually, 60 would be above average on a 0-100 scale. 

If the scale were used properly, yes. However, gaming journalism has inflated scores so much that a rating in the low 70s is already perceived as insufficient quality.

Yeah but isn't it about time we started forcing the games media (I'm averse to using the term journalist) to use words appropriately, and score things appropriately?  Last gen set an unreasonable standard, due to (in my opinion) over-scoring of games, and the misuse of the word average.   Not sure it's healthy to allow the intentional misuse of a word to spread throughout peoples brains.
