Both are trash. Reducing it to a number so fanboys can war over it. A number says nothing.

Nah, it does vehicle something, but it's highly an unreliable metric to rely on. 

Best example I could think of are the reviews done by IGN, when they could legitimately blast a game and end up giving a decent 7-8 score which feels just weird when the written portion didn't portray this kind of opinion.

7.8: Too much water.
