Top 10 games by reviewer score

Joystiq has listed GameRankings' top ten games based upon cumulative scores, and it's a rather interesting read:

1. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64, Nintendo, 97.8 avg. review)
2. Soul Calibur (DC, Namco, 96.4 avg. review)
3. Metroid Prime (GC, Nintendo, 96.3 avg. review)

5. GoldenEye 007 (N64, Nintendo, 96.0 avg. review)
6. Resident Evil 4 (GC, Capcom, 95.9 avg. review)
7. Super Mario 64 (N64, Nintendo, 95.8 avg. review)
8. Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox, Microsoft Game Studios, 95.7 avg. review)
9. Resident Evil 4 (PS2, Capcom, 95.7 avg. review)
10. Half-Life 2 (PC, VU Games, 95.6 avg. review)

GameRankings is an aggregator, so the scores above represent a range of accredited game review sources from both print and other media.

There's a nice mix of old and new titles here, suggesting that there's at least a consistency across the years. I'm most intrigued to discover that the biggest brands - i.e., the sports sims, Grand Theft Auto, Tomb Raider and The Sims - aren't represented at all.
