I start off with the story. I don't give the story a numerical score, unlike the others, because story in a game doesn't matter. Sure it can make a game more interesting but you don't need a story.
I then go to game play. I talk about what I like and don't like about it and then give it a numerical score based on What I feel the gameplay deserves. Usually if the gameplay has a low score motpre than likely so well the final score.
I then talk about sound. This includes voices, music, and other sound fx.
This is not a very important category but it still has some value.
Then I do graphics. Pretty self explanatory and like sound not a very important category but still has value.
Then we come to the big one. My enjoyment. Enjoyment is the biggest factor so unlike the other categories I take this one out of 20 points instead of 10.
After that I add up all the scores so the final score is out of 50.
So let's just say I gave gameplay 7/10 sound 3/10 graphics 3/10 and enjoyment 10/20.
That means the final score is 23/50
I then do division to get a percentage. So with this score I would do 23 divided by 50.
So that would be 0.46 or 46%. That's an F
Heres the grade scale
100%-A+
99-90%-A
89-80-B
79-70-C
69-60-D
59 or below-F
So as you can see a game as a pretty high chance of getting an F. Now sometime I don't agree with a score. For example let's say I give a game a 9/10 on gameplay and a 18/20 in enjoyment but a 3/10 for sound and graphics. That's 33/50 33 divided by 50 would give the game a 66% which is a D. Hopefully this won't happen but this is a major flaw in my system cause as I said music and graphics aren't as important but yet still have major weight when deciding what grade a game gets. If I disagree with any score I'll say so but sometimes a game deserves it's score. Like wizard of Oz.
So hope that shed some light on things. See you later.
