Damn. I was looking through one of those review kits. Didn't gave it a score or whatever, clicked on continue to look further and bang I 'made' a review.
Any possible way to delete it?

It would be nice to link review from a user's profile as well. That way, I can see all a users review at one time.

Hopefully there is no feature to sort all games by review scores. That caused problem last time with people reviewing games just to bump scores up/down.

I was actually going to ask about this, but it might be better if it's left off altogether, I suppose.

That would be a nice feature!

I like the system so far, I've added my reviews for Prince of Persia and Mirror's Edge.

I wondered, what about games where the game is pretty much the same game across multiple platforms? Like my two reviews, are they going to share reviews in some way with the 360 versions, or..?

Do submitted reviews get automatically posted or are they added to the DB queue?

 

As oliist has just learned - they automatically get posted...

 


Now it's gone. How did know which game I was talking about?

The reviews will not share across platforms. Might be something we could consider though, but it's a subject we've struggled with even with 'official' VGChartz reviews. Sometimes games are identical - sometimes they are not. And a 9.0 for a PS3 version may not be an acceptable grade for a Wii version - and vice versa.

Hard to say at this point what (if anything) we do about this...

Ah, okay.

Also, will there be an option to see the newest reviews added to the database? I think that would eventually make the reviews much more legitimate (because more people would see them, and more scores would be rated), and also make the feature more popular.

EDIT: I mean something like a box on the front page, like "Most Popular Games" you have one called "Newest User Reviews" or something like that.

Sweet. I can't wait to make a review of Dragon Quest VIII, but I hope it's not kicked down automatically just for the bad score

Awesome, now I can add my Battle Fantasia and Golden Axe reviews

I guess this means a further delay of VGC 2.0

EDIT: Unless it is already a part of VGC 2.0, and all of us who are unknowing should be held in the dark! This is the better option by the way, you can make a surprise release of VCG 2.0 now

Well, that's the beauty of the new system. People 'bumping scores' is self-correcting as other users from the community rate their scoring - if you fall below a 50% rating, your scores become obsolete and ignored...

 

Hopefully 'bumping review ratings' does not become the new 'bumping scores'.
