Funtime on 12 September 2010

10 out of the first 20 scores are perfect. That's pretty solid. If a game is good enough that half of the people who play it believe it is flawless you can't really ask for much more.

Giant Bomb 4/5

http://www.giantbomb.com/halo-reach/61-26786/reviews/

That's when you realize how flawed a 5 point scale is.


They could have still given it a 4.5/5 in that scale if they believed it was 90 game. 

No they don't give 0.5

Are you sure? That would be really strange if they don't.

I'm pretty sure yeah.

That's why it's flawed.

I agree than it is flawed. Given the whole review system now a days is a little bit flawed.

All reviews are in the OP, so check if I missed any.


Can you order them in terms of highest to lowest?

I've never seen Giant Bomb or G4 either for that matter (big advocates of the 5 point scale) score anything by 0.5s.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

That is strange, I always thought the 5 point scales went in .5s. Like it does in newspaper print.

But then it's a ten point scale

Great numbers so far for sure :) the out of 5 scores suck tbh, they lower the meta in a stupid way. many games get affected by this which is sad

but 93 meta is what I think
