I always argued the 1-10 scale system is stupid. 1-5 makes more sense, because everything between 1-4 is basically shit. While 5-7 is different levels of tolerable.

That's really only because game reviews are so generous. Any game that isn't fundamentally broken is  pretty much always going to get above a 5, and that doesn't really make sense.

Not necessarily true, I mean a lot of games on 360 scored in the 5s or less.

On metacritic you can see about 3 and half pages of that. http://www.metacritic.com/browse/games/release-date/available/xbox360/metascore?page=6

I bet there are a lot of shit games that aren't on the list simply because they didn't get enough or any reviews.

Also, since games take longer to beat its possible the people assigned to reviews actually have interest in the game they're reviewing. I mean a game like Persona 5 probably reviewed really well PARTLY because it was reviewed by Persona fans.
