    Cool. I don't know if I can compare scores from different categories, but World of Goo and Real Racing 2 both scored higher than Dead Space 2 on the 360.

    I noticed this. I wonder why TA isn't represented on either this or the iPhone quality index. I'm guessing it's that TA doesn't give a numbered review.

    I saw TA included in the 9 bug heroes reviews. They converted 4 1/2 stars into a 90 out of 100. Seems pretty reasonable, and its probably what they do for all reviewers that give stars. The larger problem is that there arent as many reviewers they hit as for console games, and the reliability is not going to be great. Still, a nice way to screen games that have made a splash that you might have missed.

    Do you realize that that comparison makes absolute no sense?

    Isn't that the point he was trying to make? The website is supposedly there for the very sake of comparison.

    TA's reviews are included too. You might have to click on "See all Critics Reviews" link to see it though.
