Yeah, in the end, a place like this has more people worthy of my attention for game reviews than any given gaming web site. So this is a thread that's a bit like "I got a new game!", except maybe it's more like "I got a new game a few weeks ago and here is what I think of it!". Also, it seems "All Other Games" has been slow recently...
Not necessarily looking for really long and thorough reviews though. You can type in 10 pages if you want, but a few lines will still be useful to other gamers I'm sure. Try to give us a mark for the game. I suggest that we use a somewhat homogeneous grading system, and that we don't use the common commercial review system that seems to give every game by a major company at least 85%, seriously if EA releases a game that gets 79% on commercial websites, in reality it's probably is worse than Bebe's kids on SNES or the worst junk you've ever played. If you don't rate the game, you will get FTGCM = Failed to give clear mark.
It's perfectly fine to discuss the reviews, argue and whatnot. Just make sure your review posts are easy to spot.
It's also fine to review board games or card games or any games.
