Edit:Oh god can't find their quote online, had to type this up and gave up partway XD, edit whole quote up (for future references XD):
Make of you will with their metacritic history:The Average The Average
Three of the numbers in a ten scale are of greater importance than the others: five, seven , and of course ten. Some publications would fool you into believing that a 7/10 game is average, but that just doesn't make sense to us, gamestm reviews videogames on their entertainment value, and so any title that simply performs to an adequate standard will recieve a 5/10. Simple. The elusive ten is reserved for games of incredible, irrefutable quality, but please be aware that a score of ten in no way professes to mean perfection.Perfection is an unattainable goal, and on a ten-point scale nothing should be unattainable. again, simple. Our reviews are not a checklist of technical features with points knocked off for flaws, neither are they PR-pressured fluff-fest - we'd never let that happen, and besides you'd smell it a mile off. And finally, the reviews you find within these pages are most certainly not statements of fact, they are opinions of schooled, knowledgeable videogame journalists, designed to enlighten, inform, and engage. The gospel according to gamestm.
