Slightly off topic, but I had a slightly different idea/concept for a review system.
The "review graph".
The y-axis is your score out of 10, the x-axis is how long you have spent playing the game.
Always plot a point after 5 min (start), and one at the end (completed) game - your overall (final) score for the game.
Then every hour (or whenever your impression of the game drastically changes), you plot another point.
...
In the end you draw your graph, and post it. Just thought it was a slightly more interesting way to review a game than by giving it a single overall number. Some games might start slow, then pick up gradually. Some may start off with a bang, then fall away badly towards the end.
You could also extend the idea to work with categories within the game (gfx, gameplay, etc..) and also with multiple reviewers.
...
Anyway, just an idea - something I hadn't seen done before.
