I have decided to create an index of my game reviews, sorted by score. I mean, I already have an index of all my posts and reviews HERE, but I thought it would be fun to see where things stand on the score spectrum.
Definitely some surprises when looking back over my old reviews. There are some games that don't deserve their high scores, like The Jungle Book for Sega Genesis. Good game, but it definitely isn't as great as everything else that got an A. There are also games I may have been too harsh on, such as the Mortal Kombat arcade games. I've made an oath not to change the scores for past reviews, since they were written with the games fresh on my mind. My opinions change over time, sure, but as much as it pains me to see some of these old scores I have to leave them as is!
I supposed it is time to get started. Let me give an explanation on each of the grades:
A+ A near flawless game that I had a fantastic time playing. An all-time classic.
A A really great game, but not quite an all-time classic.
A- A really great game that had a few minor flaws.
B+ A super fun game that falls just short of being in the A range.
B A rock solid game.
B- A pretty good game with some minor flaws.
C+ An above average title. Good but not great.
C Average.
C- Slightly below average.
D+ An admittedly bad game, but not without some redeeming aspects.
D Simply not a good game, but not a terrible one.
D- Pretty bad, but at least it is still playable, right?
F I had a rotten time playing this game. It failed at the only thing I care about when it comes to video games: to provide me with a fun time.

Non-canon review scores, just for fun:
I'll start with aggregate scores for games that I re-reviewed. The first score listed is the original score, the second one listed is the re-review score. I took the average score between the two, with "ties" favoring the original score.
