Yeah, games get a 9 way way too easy nowadays. As posted in another thread, an average game (i.e. good, but nothing special) should get a 5, hardly any game should get 9 and 10s!
G4, xplays scale is much more balanced, as the average rateing is 3 out of 5, even though the show is stupid there rateings are still something to consider

very few ever get that honour from them and they never give 10s. EVER.

Exactly! Its like 1up giving a launch game a 10. So for the life of the 360 thats as good as it gets? It makes no sense!
I rhymed!

Think about what ratings you are giving some of these games for a second people.

Now correct me if I'm wrong but I dl'ed the masterbit clip from IGN and when the Lambo hit the wall the trunk took damage, also when he took a quick look at the front of the car the hood was popping up and down. Can anyone confirm damage in PGR3, That is one thing that I havent seen anything about in any reviews prior to this remark.
They must have mistyped this. As you can see in the review, they said that the damage received is just for cosmetic purposes and doesn't affect the way the car handles (just like PGR2)
I don't care what anyone says a launch title can get a high score. Don't purposely bring a score down to leave room for improvement. Maybe they should have a look back once a year and re-rate the scores. That would probably just create more problems though. I just think that a game should have a 0% bias. If it kicks pgr2's ass i give it a 10 cuz pgr2 was great.
