Using that Batman as an example, it seems to have got a 7.5 based on the fact that the guy reviewing it doesn't really like 2D fighters or the art style or something. It looks like a very well made, solid game.

My problem with it is that reviewing anything is subjective and numbers suggest it's objective. As if there's some dark science to evalutating a game/movie/album/whatever. Bump mapping on level 3 is worth 0.04 review score points, poor checkpointing is -0.3 and the delivery of this character's final soliloquy has a -1.5 to 3.0 range. Reductive and dishonest nonsense.
