Nowadays we get too hung up on review scores. Examples of conversation go like this:
1-"Zelda BotW isn't a perfect 10..."
2-"zbotw IS perfect 10 you f*ck!"
1-"that game is far from perfect"
2-"name a better game?"
1-"uh... Uh... Shawn Whites Cross Country Skiing"
2-"go f*ck off LOL"
1-"2/10 not enough water"
This is not that. I'm just curious what is a perfect game for you and why it should be rescored to a 10, Regardless of official score? In my opinion there are countless 10s out there.(looking back of course) Most of the games they make now are meh...
My example of a 10/10 when looking back would be Final Fantasy Tactics. I think the official scores back then were a 75/100 but looking back there really hasn't been another game that could match it today. It had the CGI cutscenes, matching music, good dialogue, the story, the gameplay, the awesome tech sprites... It even had Cloud Strife in it although he was shitty and weak AF, typical cloud I guess. FFT War of the Lions rereleased for the PSP and they rewrote the dialogue to make it even more gay, which actually made it a little better in addition to adding Luso from the ds series and improved the CGI and load times. I think in retrospect this game gets a 10 regardless of it few flaws, everything just works
And by gay I don't mean it to be offensive, but like this

Go ahead and but a game down, as in original post hopefully this isn't about bashing a game

Well the only people who need score systems is probably professional sites. I for one don't care about score as long as the reviewer get their point across about the game. Most people who do 10/10 don't talk about the bad in a game. People who don't will point out some flaws. Find the good and bad and now is mixed opinion. I prefer to point out all aspects of the game, the graphics, presentation, sound quality, game play, frustrations, difficulties, which is why my reviews are rather long in this site. I know people don't care for my reviews as much cause is "TLR" But I prefer the approach of informing the reader as much as possible about the experience I have with the game and what I think others will find about the game too. Score is basically a visual representation of what the reader sees if they want the short end of the stick when browsing reviews. "Should I buy Super smash bros?" 10/10 "Oh sounds like a yes, though I never played it.
In the end, even those 10/10 games don't mean everyone will want to play it. Even the lowest score of games people play. Is just a struggle between popular opinion. If someone more famous than you likes it, people will hate on you if you don't. I prefer not to share my opinions with people who are like that.
