Yep. It is nice to see someone actually reviewing a game based on its merits - or lack thereof. In years past, Madden and NCAA were always good for an 8.5 or higher, regardless of whether or not the game being reviewed was actually better than previous years or not.

And, it's not like 7.5 out of 10 is a terrible score.
