I'll admit it, I pretty much buy games based on your reviews, it started with Area 51 and I've been doing it that way ever since. Keep up the good work!

Wow thanks TP.

I'd also like people to keep in mind that currently the sR grading system is kind of weak. We are only doing grades 1-5 with no half marks... its just the way the site was originally coded. We plan on updating this in the future, for a more accurate score. In reality, PoP SoT would def get a higher grade than 3 out of 5 D-keys.

Question
No Xbox or 360 reviews?? is their a different person for those reviews or have u not gotten to any yet? Same with nintendo, different person or no time to review them??

Ever since I made the mistake of buying chromehounds I have gone by reviews and downloads of demos ever since, so im looking for a good review base for M$ console games.

Yeh this is one thing we at straferight are trying to do, to find a dedicated Microsoft and Nintendo reviewer. I don't own any of those consoles so I won't be writing reviews for them. But we are looking for reviewers for those consoles as well as some handhelds. If anyone is interested please contact me either here or on straferight. Dukefrukem[at]straferight.com

Duke, I'll gladly review any 360 game you want. You can check my GT card, I pretty much played and totally completed every game out there. So if you guys want some 360 reviews, I would be more than happy to offer some .

Got your e-mail. I'll send you all that information tomorrow morning. I would have done it tonight, but month-end work related items have to be taken care of first.

Duke, my favorite (video) review of yours is NFS carbon, i thought you did a very good job on that. One suggestion though, have a little more inthuseasm when you talk. other than that, good job, keep of the great work.
post #15 of 68

edit- I went to the Carbon review, but can't find any video link..

Thanks Trama... yes I have terrible voice over. Maybe in the future someone could read what i write and I'd just use their voice...plus my mic sucks.

Dman, the video review was taken down because Im working on 3 or 4 right now, adding sR watermarks and better video quality and whatnot. Im hoping to have those videos back up, but I just have a lot of work to do over the next few weeks with RL stuff.

less alcohol time = more work time..
I look forward to the completed reviews. The print ones are really high quality, I'm impressed.

thanks Dman

unrelated: stay tuned for NBF's first video laptop review in the near future...
post #19 of 68
Hmm maybe we can be like XPlay, Video game reviews, with screenies and vids of the best and worst parts, and Laptop/software reviews. Now if only we could post tutorials on how to mod stuff with videos attached.......oh wait we can
post #20 of 68
Don't have any games for my PS3 ... will probably pick up R:FoM now that I've read your review, Duke. Thanks.
