Sweet!

Games aren't the same as movies or books, so they shouldn't be reviewed the same. A review should be something that highlights strong points and issues of a game. The score should be a ballpark judgement of how those strong points and issues rate with a target audience. Someone should be able to read a review and see what things they want and what things they don't want that the game offers.  Above all, a review should be complete.  It should note all possible issues and benefits of owning the game.

The purpose of our reviews isn't to tell you what your opinion should be, but to let you decide for yourself based on a complete listing of a game's features, functions, and issues and add a ballpark score on top for those who like to have a little more guidance.

So yeah, that's how I'd like our reviews to work.

@ Signalstar please send me a sample. I'm looking for quality writing more than long-time members, although I do expect you to be fairly active as a reviewer.  A couple a month isn't too much to ask though.

Maybe I should review Fallout 3. I think it is pretty disgraceful it was given a B.

The review you have outlined is not complete by any stretch of the imagination.

When is the due date for the samples?

^-- That wasn't an outline, it's a guide. :p

There's no due date, we're taking submissions until we have enough good ones.

Okely dokely.

cool.

We have added four new reviewers. Signalstar, Senseinobaka, Mr. Nice, and Colonelstubbs. We have now filled all review spots but PSP.

Just wondering, for the people who didn't get the new position, will we ever get feedback on what we did wrong/need to work on, or is it like in the old saying "what stays in the mod community stays in the mod community?" ;)

Thanks again!

Now we just need more editors...
