Overall, this is a good idea. So I will just quibble about the details, specifically the terms used for the ratings. Some terms are comparitive and others are not. A game is average or below average only in relation to other games. A game is poor or good independently of what is average. Depending on the quality of most games, the average game might be either poor or good. The use of both sets of terms can be confusing. I recommend going with a set of terms that is either entirely comparitive or entirely non-comparitive. An entirely comparitive set could be Among the Worst, Below Average, Average, Above Average, and Among the Best. An entirely non-comparitive set could be Poor, Mediocre, Okay, Good, and Excellent.
