I know I'm crazy for granting this forum, but I guess I could give it a chance. If you really want this thing to stay, it'd better wind up being worth while. If it brings no benefit, it'll be dumped into the General Gaming topic faster than you can say random white chocolate bunny rabbit.

Knock yourselves out.

could there be some kind or rubric for these reviews? i always liked the order of it all.

something of the sort:

storyline
gfx
sound effect/music
controlls
multiplayer
singleplayer (might go with storyline)
overall rating

don't know if you do reviews but it may be a good idea to include the good (well written) reviews on the site. good reviews attract audience and especially if they help make a good decision on the game and whether to buy it or not. people keep comming back.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about the reviews on the site.

For the rubric, what you said has now become official. Your review must be in that layout and each category must be given a score of 10. Then you give an overall score and summarize your last thoughts and opinions.

The thing for the site will have to wait though. TiredSikTwisted is working.

Wutai, you're the group moderator of the Game Reviewers. That means not only are you a moderator but you rule the group. If you think somebody else deserves to be in the group you have the power to add them.

If you feel things should be sticked, unstickied, etc, you have that power too. You have all power over this forum in otherwords.

So can we just post our reviews and hope we become official revewers? Do I need to spell? I hate spelling. It gives me gas. :(|):

Uhhh... I think I'm going to change that whole "reviewers" thing. Everybody is kind of a reviewer here... I'll make them review moderators.

No, you just write a nice, juicy review of your favorite games and not only contribute to the community but also your respect level goes up.

Yeah...But I would suggest pasting your posts into Microsoft Word and hitting F7 before you submit your post. It'll fix lots of the spelling.

Mr. Dibnah is the new Game Reviewer moderator. I'm sure he won't ignore his duties...

Moderate this forum.
Sticky/Unsticky, Announce, and keep them interesting.
Maintain these forums.
Perhaps write the occassional review.
Appoint other reviewers (but not often, it should be a small group). Reviewers aren't official reviewers, they're just other moderators of this forum.

Actually, I was intersted. The only reason I didn't do anything is because my cousin that I hardly ever see came over and I never got a chance to get on the computer.

Maybe next time you should ask me before replacing me.
