[General Discussion] Best review scale?

I used to wonder all the time why movies were on a 4 star system, but when you make it concise, I guess it helps some people draw a hard line between the cream and the curd.

Of course, if you don't have a long-running understanding with your readers, they might balk at a 4 or 5 star system. I.E. "Who is this guy, and what's an 'average' game for him?"

10 star systems help to do away with some of that, and I personally prefer a more detailed score. It's not going to be objective, by any means, but I feel that the more specific the score, the more specific the reviewer has to get to justify it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
