The average person does not want to read 5 paragraphs to understand the point.... I know I don't. To me a review should be as to the point as possible to give the reader a general feel of the game and things it does good and bad.

A general number isn't going to give you the feel for a game. A list of pros and cons will though. A stark number won't help you and only invites debate against a reviewer. It just taints the chance to form your own opinion.

So essentially 95% of reviews on everything is wrong?

 

Applying a number and skim reading gives the reader a general feel of the game and how much the reviewer liked it. There is no reason you cant have a number and pros and cons. Going through comments it looks like must people want numbers.
