Combo timing and dodges carry the spectacle combat
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Bricks cannot fight back
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Stormtroopers follow simple fixed scripts
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Alleyway
Ball physics are deterministic with minor bounce uncertainty
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

Alleyway
Brick-clearing order barely matters beyond basics
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Upgrade choices barely matter against forgiving difficulty
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
