I really don't get how this game can get 10 in all subscores and the total score. I've read quite a few other reviews, and most of the reviews are able to point to some serious flaws and shortcomings; such as some of the cutscenes being pompous and straight out boring, levels being linear, multiple install sessions (yes, it even installs between chapters), etc.

If you give this a 10.0 (that's a 100 point scale), you are not setting the standard high enough. Tho I do not think that a game needs to be "perfect" to get a 10.0, it should be free of major annoyances like I just mentioned.

My main problem is the useless 100 point scale anyway, what exactly is the difference between a 94 and a 95 in terms of something tangible?

In Norway the press uses dice in the review of games/movies/cds/concerts etc. It's very simple.

1 sucks beyond belief, 2 is bad, 3 is mediocre, 4 is ok, 5 is great, 6 is amazing.

What other distincton do you need? It's more than enough to make a buying decision, if you bother to read the review as well. This is a 6 point scale, a 10 point scale would be more than enough, 100 points is just silly.
