Eh, that's what a 8 and 9 is for, in my grading. You can't just give a 10 lightly to something. My opinion of course. I just don't like someone having a LIST of the "10's"; It cheapens the effect somehow. You can't trust a critic when he doesn't differentiates ESPECIALLY at the upper and lower spectrum. Someone giving out 10's and 1's... meh... not my thing.IamSofaKingRaw said:
hmm...
The only game I played that I feel is worthy of a perfect 10 is "The World ends with you". That game gave us so much freedom, and played so well, and had such a fun story....MAN that game was good!
Although there are TONS of games in my 9 to 9.9 range...
Like Tales of Symphonia, Okami, Shadow of the collosus, Pheonix wright, Sonic colors, Sonic 3...*voice trails on for at least 5 more games*.
PS: 0_o What the...I swear my captcha just said "altman". ...Are these captchas...made by unitologists?!
EDIT: BTW, I absolutely HATEHATEHATE number scores. They mean different things to everyone, and are thus so hard to quantify. I like to use a simple scale of "Avoid - Decent - Solid - AMAZING" when grading games.

Shenmue - Beautiful, Evocative, Deep, Moving. A true classic.
Okami - Buy it! If you don't have a PS2 (assuming that's even possible), get one. You won't be dissapointed.
Breath of Fire IV - A gripping story, innovative battle system, and a quickly lovable cast.
All also have some of the most spectacular soundtracks in gaming.

Thats exactly why I only find Uncharted 2 and MGS4 to be deserving. To me, a 8 or 9 is a game like Gears of War or Killzone. They do a lot of things well but don't deliver really well on what they wanted to do.Summerstorm said:
For Gears its the bad narrative and disappointingly bad boss battles, and for Killzone its the (also) bad narrative and inconsistent pacing (in KZ3 they try to make the game cinematic but keep on stopping the action to show you a cutscene of the main character doing something you could easily be doing in game) Both games are excellent however, but its that there flaws are very noticeable. (In Uncharted 2 I couldn't help but admire the excellent writing and character reactions and animations)
Red Dead Redemption
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
Animal Crossing DS
Pokemon Gold
Super Mario World
Games which come close include: Uncharted 1 + 2, Kingdom Hearts 2 (would be a 10 if i didn't find it so damn repetitive) and COD: Modern Warfare

God, I must really be an old fart. Either that, or my tastes are just completely different.
No actually perfect games, per se, though the ones that really come to mind that are masterpieces are...
Chrono Trigger
Secret of Mana
Final Fantasy 3
LUNAR: Silver Star Story Complete
LUNAR: Eternal Blue Complete
And, although I haven't played them yet, I imagine Persona 4 and, soon to be released, Catherine would get a nod toward that list.

I got it 3 days ago, I'd give it a nine from the 5-6 hours I've played it. Not a masterpiece IMO.
Portal: The only drawback was how short it was, and with the coming sequal that will soon be remeidied.
Jak II: A shining star of the Jak and Daxter tirlogy with excellent story and varied gameplay making up for the cartoony look, though I honestly don't mind it either. Some may mark Jak 3 the winner, but it loses points with me for a haphazard forth wall break, some odd story changes (romance plot getting mussed up) and parts of the story failing to pull me in.
Banjo Kazooie: Classic. Just Classic.
I have a lot of games that I love, but these are certainly big in my book.

Perfect? None.
Games that I'd round up to a 10/10: (roughly 96-99 on a hundred point scale)
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time...no need to elaborate on that one.
Metroid Prime (so far, anyway. I've just started it, but besides a few small problems with the tutorial, I haven't found any problems with it. Playing the Wii version incase anyone's wondering...)
Left 4 Dead (biggest issue is the freaking survivor AI--it somehow manages to screw me over no matter which side I'm playing in versus...but, still--rounding)
Portal. Kind of short, took me a while to think of "portaling" a missle into the cube tube (The tubes are destructable...the ONE thing they forgot to cover in the tutorial).
Minecraft. Not much in the area of actual goals, but you can make your own. Besides, it's neat to see a game made almost entirely out of a customizable/destructable environment.
Morrowind. Crappy combat, but a helpful glitch fixed that right up (go to Balmora, get that sword from the kitty's shop, summon sword that buffs sword stat, swap weapons and the game keeps the stat boost permantly. Long Sword skill of over 1000 within the first few minutes
). The amount of detail is amazing...houses are cluttered, cultures in conflict, ect.
Chrono Trigger. I honestly don't have a complaint...but I'm sure someone can think of a minor flaw. And while I'm listing SNES, which is home to several games that I have no complaints for....
Super Mario World (one giant world map, so many secrets in the levels, a secret world, a second secret world unlocked for finishing the secret world, and yoshi? Awesome)
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Gameplay from Zelda 1...just bigger and better...with two worlds, towns, and some great boss fights)
Super Metroid (hard to elaborate on this one, since this is the earliest Metroid I've played. Seems to be, like Mario World and LttP, the perfection of the original formula and gameplay).

Kingdom Hearts 2 and Mass Effect 2. Love 'em both but I don't think any of them could be completely perfect. But I'd rate them as a 10/10
