Scoreless reviews means less exposure, especially on metacritic. Which leads to less sight traffic, less revenue and less money to pay mods; and me to do nothing.

Pretty sure VGC was neve on metacritic in the first place


Indeed, and tbh Marc from Metacritic clearly had no intentions of ever adding VGC, so to be honest that kind of freed us up to do as we pleased.


But the potential... Have we given up on our talented review team to make meta, just because one person doesn't believe? Must we crush their dreams of fame?

I think that's an oversimplification, no?

My company just acquired two companies, and we're working to unify ourselves. Things are going "back to how it was before," but with 5 times the employees and 10 times the resources.

I said that because gamrReview was part of VGC in old days... you could even add user review or stuffs like that... VGC splited in two or three sites at time.

All these feature was part of VGC in the past.

Well VG Chartz use to be apart of I wanna say GameRankings (or Metacritic) but it's not anymore, maybe they were dropped and there's no chance of being accepted back into it hence not caring to be accepted as a site for reviews on Metacritic/GameRankings.

Scoreless reviews only denies the possibility of being added to the metacritic or gamerankings database thus reducing potential web traffic.

One thing I'd like to see is adaptation to mobile phones, the website as it is is clumsy.

Sounds good. Hopefully this will quell some of those threads on vgchartz fading due to lack of numbers.


Ummm no because the reason everyone is leaving and will continue to do so is lack of number updates (the primary purpose of this site) ive been here 5 yrs and i dont remember it being this bad for an extended period of time.


There's no point in beating a dead horse. He will get back on top of the numbers.

P.S. If anyone else wants to be notified when the recruitment thread goes live let me know.


Yes, I would like to be notified.

Congrats Trucks! Been looking forward to this for a while. I am glad to have the opportunity to put my work out there for you guys to enjoy, and the same applies for the other writers too. This is a good move for a more united VGC and shows that the site is ever changing to help accommodate what is best for its users.

Speaking of...Database anyone?

Database? Is that one of openings?
