PSU Community Review Index [congratz spyrde!]

[Ghost-Rhayne]

I'll have two reviews in the new 2 weeks ready for this section....Paper Mario and WWE 13 for ps3...

Are Hardware reviews to be posted in this section as well...I have a Wii U deluxe set im going to be doing soon...

I think we could make provisions for hardware...of course...it would require a new shiney graphic...

[DeviousOne]

We alreayd have some Wii U ones and going forward we will need them for xbox and PS4...

[ps3freak18]

I've just recently got a heap of games sure to BF so I'll have plenty of ammo. Skyrim, MLB 12 The Show, Dead Island GOTY, and Ghost Recon Future Soldier all on the docket. I also have Farcry 3 next week. I'm going to be one busy gamer this holiday season.

I think we should stick to video games, for now. We only really have the Wii U coming out so those can be posted in the Nintendo subforum.

Awesome. The more the merrier.

Fair point!

[DeviousOne]

Im with blacksite we can just move the ones we have already there and go from there...

@ freak im with you bro ive been a busy gamer as of late LOL feels great to have that free time to do so this holiday season!

I think it's important to give some freedom with writing and presenting the reviews. Yes they should follow the same kind of structure but if it varies slightly due to different people's writing styles or some people chose to include lots of images or none, should be up to them.

We don't want to be reading the same reviews over and over where they all look the exact same. Like of someone includes subheadings for 'Sound:' and 'Graphics:' and someone doesn't, that shouldn't be an issue. We shouldn't be restricting so much as it limits creativity

Its good to have a basic structure that can be modified it'll give the forum some kind of consistency. this is going to be an evolving sitaution to say the least however going forward it'll all work out

[Ghost-Rhayne]

Vote on the poll please!

Was a fucking hard call for me. I love both sets as they both have a different visual approach. In the end I chose Blacksite's because it kind of suits PSU's theme somehow. Much thanks to both of you for the entries, your artistic ability plays an important part of my vision for this project.

[DarkVincent07]

Very very hard decision, ended up going for BS too, because yeah the colours and stuff do reflect PSU more, not that this was really in the criteria but it helps.

I prefer the sizes of Spryde's work though, and his are still fantastic

[brebaz]

They are both fantastic, but i ended up choosing Spyrde, as i like the sepia toning a bit more.

[CloudStrife37]

I can't wait to tackle some Nintendo titles. Writing official reviews for PSU is great, but Nintendo has part of my heart as well ;O

[Ghost-Rhayne]

I agree Mr Dark. I want to try and find the right balance between uniformity and freedom. I want the reviews to be a fun and creative experience for the writer, but want them to have visual qualities that give them an identity as part of our new area.

[Soldier 95B]

I have to go with Blacksite, with the nice color. Not a fan of Sepia.

[Ixion]

Both designs are quite good, but I prefer the darker tone of Spyrde's design.

[Nitey]

Just had a chance to go through this thread. This is brilliant! Hopefully I can contribute a review here and there .

Difficult choice but I chose spyrde's design

[DeviousOne]

had to go with Blacksite so he doesnt ban me LMAO...jk but i loved both but i felt that blacksite coincide better with the PSU website as a whole.

but great effort but both spyre and BS!

[Cybertox]

Definitely Spyrdes design.

[GTR1986]

I prefer Spyrdes design but both are good.

[imINxile]

Can't see Blacksites Sony sub-forum banner for some reason, but I'm on mobile atm so that could be the case. Both sets look great honestly.

As I've said before, looking forward to the reviews. I just hope they are relatively spoiler free though. I'm not by any means trying to insult the Intelligence of anyone in the community or the writers for that matter...I just see this actually being really popular and many people wanting to contribute.

Will visit regardless, good job for making this happen.

[Soldier 95B]

Spoiler free might be a tough one. Most reviews I read in general all have spoilers in them. My first review that gets posted here will have spoilers in them.

[F34R]

Principles of the games don't require plot spoilers.

[Ghost-Rhayne]

It's not so hard is it? We don't need a plot analysis! Eg. Assassins Creed 3 is the story of a native american/european assassin called conor who seeks to destroy the templar threat in order to protect his village.

[Soldier 95B]

The spoiler in my Halo 4 reviews explains how the Halo was resurfaced with asphalt.

[imINxile]

I really only meant major spoilers written into the review but not hidden. Again not a huge concern, will be reading regardless.
