I think the '7-10' scoring system is stupid. I do put stock in review scores because I am a numbers guy and having a uniform rating system helps me process information. Of course the text of the review is also very important but who has time to read all these reviews? It's just silly that we live in a world where a 7 score is a 'bad' game and the difference between 9.25 and 9.5 is bigger than the difference between 4 and 6.
