I think they judge the games based on their genre. The FPS genre is crowded by excellent titles, and if you look past its shiny exterior for one second there's been a lot of talk about sluggish controls. Maybe that's what brought it's score down. A lot of people seem to have divided opinions about the 'weightier' feel of the controls. Some love them while others consider them game-breaking.
In any case it will be interesting to read the full review and see why they came to their conclusions.
