The try fit any any game, even fighting games and platformers to the same universal criteria which doesn;t even apply to all games. IMO, the only thing that matters for a game is how much enjoyment and entertainment it gives you. Yep and besides, game review scores as very flawed.

As Jetlogs mentioned before, review is reall based on the reviewer's taste, so the score they give to the games are never accurate.(In fact, I personally think most of them are not accurate at all, most of the popular series are over-rated by them) When I read the review, I'm just more interested to get the information of the game from it so I can decide rather the game sounds like my type of game or not to see I should even bother to try it out or not.
