I think it would be cool to have the option to give fangames scores like 6.5, 9.5, 0.5, etc.

Not a suggestion of extreme necessity, but nonetheless still good I guess.

I think the staff already decided to oversimplify the score system and make it a 5 star system or something like that. I still don't like this idea but eh whatever.

Personally I don't like scores on reviews. If I had my way, we'd scrap them and go with a thumbs up/thumbs down rating (based on number of thumbs up vs. thumbs down) instead for search/sorting purposes. Let the text of the review do the rest of the talking.

Like Pedigree, I don't particularly care for review scores, but I hate trends like half-points even more. Now it's not really a score out of ten, but twenty, or a hundred, and in the end what is the practical difference between an 8.5 and a 9 anyway? Or a 9.7 and a 10?

As far as I'm concerned, there isn't one. I'll admit I'm even advocating for a smaller scale out of five, if we MUST have scores, 'cause then the distinction is greater.
