head to head
Mario Kart: Super Circuit asks more than The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and the gap is execution.

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.
