Is it worth reviewing all our major games? BEEF2, COD2 CS:S, EVE etc..

Might inspire some cross-5punking and I'm sure we've no lack of people with an opinion on them.

Very much so, we've had a few 'what should I buy' threads, and this might help them decide.

I'd like to see review for older games that people may have missed. I've just done one for Morrowind which is a firm favourite of mine, and I imagine that many other peolple have games a few years old which not everyone will have heard of or played, so this could be a good general theme for reviews?

I'm nearly finished on one I was working on today but please do if you're up for it, there's no reason why we can't have two or more, the more opinions the better. :likesitall:

I'm putting off the Psychonauts one until I've completed the game or at least played more. Right now I have to find The Milkman, whoever that is :?

It's great idea, people often know a lot about new games, or perhaps just buy them anyway - but there's a whole catalogue of great games out there which are cheap, or even free. You've already encouraged me to put Morrowind back in the "games I'm playing" pile.

Perhaps one month we could even have a "review a Spectrum game" or a "worst game Evar" theme, which while no-one's going to consider buying them might be a bit of fun and bring back some good/bad memories.

We are keen on getting as many views on the "big" current games too, of course - particularly HL2 and it's variants, BeeF and of course the CoD, as we're always pimping them in the "Hi, I'm new!" threads.

Naturally, people are reviewing all of the games that they like the most. However, along with my call for reviewing lesser-known games, it would also be interesting to see some reviews of games that people weren't so keen on. It would be good to have an in-depth review like the others too rather than just "OMG this is shite". However, the main drawback I can see here is that if I don't like a game, I won't keep playing it enough to be able to write a review on it, and I guess that this is the case for most people. But anyway, was just a thought.
