i have that problem... the best i can come up with is learn from the game reports. they seem to unlock hints to making good games. but i have yet to score a perfect 10 game. came close with 10,10,10,9 but im not sure what made the game so good. im thinking its a bit of random chance honestly.

I've gotten 8's, 7,s and 6's.
I think you have to pick good topics, and do research and stuff.

1: get a high score (for design and tech in a game)
2: pick an easy topic and easy genre(s) (fantasy, rpg/adventure works well)
3: in three dev areas, achieve the perfect balance (for fantasy rpg/adventure, for dev1 put all in story/quests, none in engine, half in the middle one. for dev2, all dialog, half gameplay, no sound. dev3 all world design, half level design etc.

4: most important, make sure you beat your high score by at least 10.
5: watch the dope ass reviews roll in.

I suggest you read my guide! I cover a lot of ground and give you great advice of everything I have learned thus far.

Easiest way?
Specialization, specialization,specialization.

1. Find a couple topic/genre combos you like (helps if it's a "great combo")
2. Keep the genre the same (action, sim, etc) but be sure to change the topic each time
3. Develop for a system that it's a good match for & target the correct age
4. Once the game reports rank the development categories (you do those right?), I put "+++" sliders at 100%, "++" at 75%, and everything else at 0%
5. Follow the above and just keep churning them out! As long as your design and tech for each game is slowly rising, you'll get a 9.75+ in no time

Pros: effective and you never have to touch the sliders (or staff assignments) again
Cons: can sometimes be dull, though my favorite playthrough was focusing on sims
