Woah, woah, woah, hold on a minute. Splatoon is being held to different standards than a significantly cheaper indie game?

Someone call the prints, i think we've found ourselves a conspiracy. 

yeah. All games should be rated by same criteria. Otherwhise this scores are senseless.

I think you missed my sarcasm. OlliOlli is significantly cheaper than Splatoon (and still a great game, even if it doesn't appeal to you). Even if it's held to the same general standards, it's going to be scored differently on that fact alone. You can't just linearly compare scores, they have a context that needs to be considered.
