i'll drop ya some reviews if you can get a blog tool for the site. i'll be posting them under a pseudonym, though, like SCARY LARRY'S PALPITATING ASSHOLE.

I'd contribute if we had a review or editorial page

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #124 on:** January 20, 2012, 10:22:39 PM »

Why are we discussing this in a foc thread

Akala · « **Reply #125 on:** January 20, 2012, 10:49:21 PM »

it's kinda the perfect place to discuss.

reviews could be funny. imagine side bets to force people through crappy games.

"oh sorry, 3DS didn't break 50k/Saints lost...I want an Iron Roses review in two weeks."

Mupepe · « **Reply #126 on:** January 21, 2012, 01:23:56 AM »

I'd contribute reviews as well but be aware I tend to be easily satisfied by games

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #127 on:** January 21, 2012, 02:24:31 AM »

I will undertake the terrible task of reviewing Nintendo games. Note that I don't own any nintendo consoles or handhelds, but that's ok.

Rename FoCReturns to FoC. Easier that way, isn't it?

Also, welcome back FoC. Still playing Magic any?

Yeah, neither is anyone else. Myself included.

No numerical scores plz

benjipwns · « **Reply #131 on:** January 21, 2012, 07:00:14 AM »

What about a scale that goes from 9 to 10?

Nah, I sold it along with my XBOX. I had a ton of legacy stuff got about $3K for it all. I live right across the street from a magic shop though and I go and hang out with some friends from time to time. I really like the new set.

I like the notion of giving specialized scores for each game, such as "this pathetic offering scores -4 shriveled Shiggy testicles out of 5" or the like.

Nonsensical scores would force people to actually read the review

But metacritic would still add it into the overall average as a standard score. $:-\$

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #137 on:** January 21, 2012, 05:57:30 PM »

We wouldn't be listed on Metacritic, only Metametacritic.

FlameofCallandorReturns · « **Reply #138 on:** January 21, 2012, 06:55:51 PM »

I like the idea of reviewing games that have a meaningless score for exactly the reason stated - you'd be forced to read it.

Instead of a numerical score, we should use symbols that can't be quantitative in any way. Bad games could get a score of moldy peach, expired coupon, crying baby in a movie theater, etc.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #141 on:** January 23, 2012, 10:47:20 PM »

Do away with numbers and just put games into 3 categories: Ignore, Rent, and Buy.

How does that relate to all the disgusting poor thieves here?

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #143 on:** January 23, 2012, 11:40:52 PM »

Okay, how about: Pirate, Steal, Thieve

Trent Dole · « **Reply #144 on:** January 24, 2012, 12:55:23 AM »

If we get to give each game an arbitrary utterly meaningless nonsensical score I'd write some reviews.

Haven't done reviews in a couple of years, but I'd be down. Sounds fun!
