I would make it very simple.  Just an average among :

1) Graphics/Art Design

2) Sound/Music

3) Game-play and Controls.

4) Story/Story telling

5) Longevity/Value/Bugs/features/MP.

Just go with a Score which is the average, then the Reviewer will give the full review, and you will make an idea reading all the review, and not just looking at the Score.  Doing like this, you will 'cut' garbage like some reviews from Quarter to Three, who gave Halo4 a 20/100.  No way you can rate Halo4(example) 20/100 if you apply the 'old style Rating'; I mean, you should never rate Halo4 less than 7/10, but in this way you can't cheat, and you would look like a joke if you try to make an everage of 20/100 with Halo4 or The Order 1886. ( I'm not comparing these two games).

That would be the best choice if an agreement cant be achived and it would beat by far anything we have now. The only thing I dont like is saying everithing is just as important, some things are added value That a game could do great without, like sound for me, but your method would be the simplest and fastest way to solve the issue we have right know.

We should probably do one of those petitions to send to metacritic to enforce this new review system. Whats that site called that helps makes those?

That's a great idea mate ;)    And WE ALL as gamers, developers, publishers, deserve a better Metacritic. We should try. Let's do this Petitions !

Right now I don't know that much about that site that might help with this, but I will do a search.
