Review Scores Explained
WORDS BY: Paul Curthoys
11: Perfect
The unicorn. Will never happen. Never.
10: Classic
One of those rare and very best of games. Every Xbox gamer simply must buy it and play it, whether or not they’re a fan of the genre.
9.0 or 9.5: Awesome
Very impressive. One of the best games around. May have a few minor problems, but they’re small and very easily tolerated.
----Editors’ Choice is 9.0 & above----
8.0 or 8.5: Great
A great game and an A-list title, but either it either has niche appeal, suffers from minor technical or design issues, or has peripheral problems like a crummy interface.
7.0 or 7.5: Good
Has a lot of good things going for it, but there’s a big problem or two, something that limits its appeal or gets downright annoying. Could also be a game that aims low but hits surprisingly high.
6.0 or 6.5: Decent
An adequate game with something interesting to offer, but it has some truly significant issues. Otaku won’t mind much, but the rest of the world will.
5.0 or 5.5: Mediocre
Very unspecial and average in the worst sense of that word. You can’t pound it for being terrible, but it’s hard to find something to recommend it for.
4.0 or 4.5: Deficient
It has some very serious flaws and problems, but you can play it if you’re interested. It works and does what it sets out to do, but it probably never aimed that high in the first place.
3.0 or 3.5: Wounded
It has some crippling problems and is poorly conceived and designed. You can imagine someone wanting to try it, but not that many people, and they all should rent before they buy.
0.0 – 2.5: Broken
Just really bad. Lacks a single redeeming quality, and/or it’s busted to varying degrees in its design, quality, or basic functionality. No gamer of any stripe should bother.
