Top scores are handed out a bit too readily these days and makes it difficult to determine which games are worthwhile at times. This new system reminds me of PC Zone's, where they rarely gave out top scores (and a 'Classic' award) unless the game truly was that good, with most getting 'recommended' instead. People will still get pissy, mind. I still remember (and laugh) at the Quake fanbase for getting angry at the magazine for daring to not give Quake III Arena a classic award.
