Game database reviews - how should we do it?

[kn]

Here's an idea that I guarantee no-one else is doing and would draw traffic here in a heartbeat... copyrightable even...

Grab the individual reviews from the top 10 or 15 magazines from around the globe... average them up to a 10 or 100 or whatever number you want. Provide each review in a list as an individual contributor to the total composite you are coming up with in the total. So, say for example you use 10 magazines for Halo 3 and you get a spread of 8.9 to 10. with an average of 9.3.... That's standard fare... but THEN....

Compare each magazine to the composite -- under/over percentage. I.e. IGN +10% over composite. Play Magazine -12% under composite. But wait, there's more...

Also add console specifics... This is a 360 game... Keep a running log of the over/under per game and per platform and keep a running average that also appears with the review.... It would look something like this:

Halo 3 (360)composite score from 10 sources (this could be less if all mags don't cover)
Composite score: 93
O/U Consoles
Magazine Score O/U Composite 360 PS3 Wii
Mag 1 97 +5% +9% -11% -17%
Mag 2 93 - -1% +7% -11%

How cool would that be?

This would be called, in my honor, of course, the KNRanking System, lol. Or, you could just steal the idea and I'll let you slide.
