Genetically Different  Posts: 480 Joined: 26 Dec 2007    | Can we put any reviews we've recently written but put in the Gaming Discussion forum here? Or is it a 'sleeping dogs lie' case? |
Staff Emeritus Posts: 1124 Joined: 7 Jul 2006 | Mostly the latter. I may take an hour or so at some point this week to move a few of the more active threads over, but let's stick to the grandfather clause for now. |

If you'd really like one moved, send me a PM (little envelope next to my name on this post) with a link to the thread(s) and I'll drop it in this forum when I get a chance. |

Muckraker  Posts: 307 Joined: 17 Oct 2007   | I'm currently writing a report on my experiences with a system, not a game, would that go here or in "gaming discussion"? |

Would you consider said report to be something people might read if they were considering buying said console? |

Yep, its basically a log of the (very drawn-out and difficult) purchase of and initial reactions to the Wii, along with brief reviews of a few games. |

Muckraker  Posts: 338 Joined: 12 Oct 2007   | Hurray! So much for doing more Gamespot user reviews. Their .5 system can kiss .5 of the fattest part of my...cat. You heard me. |
Paperboy Posts: 37 Joined: 3 Dec 2007  | Am I required to complete all of the game or is 10% ok? |

Sure you can. Hell, I may even review a game on its cover art. While Lost Planet has you standing in the snow alot, you do look mighty cool. 5/5 |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 816 Joined: 19 Dec 2007  | Are we allowed to review any game, regardless of age? Or are we limited to only games that are shiny and new? |

Beat Writer Posts: 183 Joined: 28 Nov 2007  | Good show! Less clutter and a good way to avoid newbies getting hammered; through structuring and sanctioning a separate space for this. Maybe I'll even hazard posting an amateurish review of my own now! |

You're browsing along, minding your own business, when all of a sudden you see a new forum here in Escapistland: User Reviews.
If you've been here more than a week, you'll notice we get a fair amount of user-written reviews posted to the Game Discussion forum. "Jees," you likely think, "there's enough reviews here for an entire forum!" And you'd think right! To eliminate some clutter, as well as make things a bit more sanctioned, we've created this forum for, well, user reviews. Post your reviews of videogames here, and leave game discussion to, well, Game Discussion.
Here's some guidelines for the User Reviews forum:
Carry on, and enjoy!
