I don't know about EaB, but Generals probably doesn't deserve more than a 75. It has a lot of very stupid problems that make it very clear that it was rushed out the door before they even tried to start polishing it. Expect a long string of patches in the future.
Earth and beyond was NOT a game worthy of a 90 rating. anyone who played it more than a day knows this. It's BORING, repetetive and completely lacks any kind of content. It shore wuz purdy tho. If those scores were flipped, it would be more accurate. Also, I don't know WTF kind of problems people are having with Generals, but I've run into ZERO problems. My guess is that it's a case of mass PEBKAC errors, either that or PICNIC errors or CKI issues:
*PEBKAC (pronounced "peb-kack") = Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair
* CKI issue - the problem with the chair-keyboard interface
* PICNIC - "Problem In Chair, Not In Computer"
