I really don't think GTAIV is worthy of the scores

Yeah, it definitely doesn't deserve 10s. I mean, it may be great, but 10 is usually reserved for games that just can't get any better when they are released, and will probably still be great for years to come. GTAIV definitely doesn't pass the former, and the latter is debatable, imo.

I think it's still a AAA, though.

Every game has flaws, though. A 10/10 just means the game is that good compared to everything else out.

See this is where my problem is everything I know of that involves judging on a scale of 1 - 10 with decimals requires it to be perfect.

 A gymnast doesn't get a 10 because she was so much better then the others. She gets a 10 because she was perfect.

No, she appeared perfect compared to what everyone else has done. The more accurate comparison is movies, where 4 or 5 stars (whichever is highest on a particular scale) are given all the time. Also, Rotten Tomatoes where a movie is given a good or bad, and when a movie gets 100% good no one says it's perfect, just that it has a perfect rating.
