Happy 5th anniversary to IGN's 10-point rating system. I'd say it's gone alright!
Yes, a lot of dudes love to meme about us giving everything 7s, but A) that's less tiresome than them arguing over a 7.7 vs a 7.8, and B) they haven't bothered to check if that's correct (it objectively isn't).

1. Wish I hadn’t played
2. Good but wouldn’t play it again or more often
3. Would absolutely play again
But yeah, can you imagine the reaction if IGN gave a major game a 1, 2, or 3? Heads would explode!
7.8 / 10 " too much water"
I will never forget (or forgive) all the people who didn't read the review but dunked on it anyway.
Still, douches.
In practice, though, our system is 6 points - if you consider everything 5 and under to be "one star." It's just a matter of how much we disliked them.
