People have different opinions. The readers are aware of this as well.
Reviewer A could appreciate the Social Link system of Persona 3, while Reviewer B dislikes it, and even finds that it becomes a hindrance to their gameplay experience since ignoring it has a negative consequences on the battle system. If their opinions continue to differ on different aspects of the game, the score could, and should, become noticably different. I wouldn't say that a 1.2 point difference on a scale of 10 is "wildly vary" though.


If that is the case, then one of those reviewers is a bad reviewer. How much something is rewarding is part of the design of the game. If reviews are this volatile and opinated then the scoring system makes no sense and is arbitrary. 

At the end of the day, what we have in this case is the same game with less features (and this was a game created with the gamepad in mind and loses alot of its appeal without it). How can it possibly score higher? I can't account this to simply "opinion" and i can't clear the publication of the past review published for the same game. None of this is serious. If it isnt serious, i can't trust either of their reviews. Both of them are untrustworthy.

You have a whole range of different opinions for almost every game. ZombiU goes from 4.5 to 9.2: http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii-u/zombiu/critic-reviews

So almost all of these reviews are bad reviews because they don't come to the same conclusion as yourself?

And that the game "loses alot of its appeal without the second screen" is your own personal opinion, have you even tried the other version? You also ignore that some aspects of the game are better in the new versions. Even if these adjustments don't matter to you... they can still matter to other people.
