Edge is scaled differently compared to other reviewers, 5/10 from them is average which most other outlets have as 7, Sonic 06 I think got a 2/10 from Edge.

That's part of why I don't like them though. They insist that 5/10 is the average when the rest of the industry has long accepted that it is 7/10. Their own reviews don't even agree with that. According to metacritic the average score issued by Edge is 6.5/10. 

They're right though as their scaling makes sense and the industry's doesn't, 5 is bang in the middle of the scale and easy to navigate and explain while 7 doesn't make sense at all for being average as below 6/10 you have five numbers on the scale for bad. Edge is at least coherent.

1- Avoid
2- Poor
3- Mediocre
4- Below Average
5- Average
6- Above Average
7- Decent
8- Good
9- Exceptional
10- Ground Breaking
