Well GamrReview isn't our problem any more! Now we just need all our functions back and I can start working on Database again, until they are back I won't be doing any DB work expect accepting stuff and cheacking it over!

That's the default banner actually, guess the coder is a big Catherine fan.
Far as the split goes, as I've said before I'm not a huge fan of the idea in general, but I understand that gamrReview does not really fit in well with a simplified sales focused VGChartz or an aggregate site like GameWise, so this is the only avenue left. I'm hopeful that it'll work out for the best, but it'll be sad to not see the usual commentors on my reviews any more. c'est la vie.

Is there such a thing ? :p
TBH I don't understand why can't GamrReview and GameWise be an integration, kind of thw way Vgchartz.gamrreview was. Well, it doesn't matter now. I think the new GamrReview is nice and easy to read, I also like Disqus, there is a profile editing and a notification system.
Hopfully everyone would check it out every now and then.

It will be 3 sites. gamrreview for reviews, vgchartz for sales and gamewise for the database/gaming forums/etc.

Is there going to be added features to each site or is everything going to be the same just different websites. I prefer not to have to go to three different websites personally but I will wait to see the final product(s).

Well, you can't even log into gamrreview from what I know, unless you are a writer. You can use disqus to comment on articles though, but that's it.
VGC is probably going to be the same from what I've heard, it has already gone through some changes.
Gamewise will definitely have some cool features for sure.

So I can't go there to troll? Well, then the site split doesn't bother me one bit, because there's no reason to read any reviews anymore.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV (360+PS3) would outsell SSBB. I was wrong.

No need for diqus. Just use facebook or google or even twitter account. Or you can even post as a guest.
