4 of these games were not rated by either site, 27 games
rated 90% or above, 56 games rated 80%-89%, 53 games rated 70%-79%, 14 games
rated 60%-69%, 10 games rated 50-59%, and 2 game rated 40-49%.
These scores were attained by averaging the scores from Gamespot and IGN, so
they represent an average between two different review sites. These percentages
are not representative of a "grade" as one would receive in school. A '50%'
score should be viewed as completely average, anything above that should be
viewed as above average.
