Our rating system
has been created and optimized with the intent of offering a simple
but informative way of introducing reviews. In addition to our list
of pros and cons, we use an often unseen text-based rating scheme.
It effectively summarizes a review without getting caught up in numbered
scoring.
Here's a breakdown of the system and what each rating means:
|
Excellent
|
|
Games
within this range are the epitome of excellence and quality.
Our "excellent" status is an acknowledgement that a game is
nothing short of remarkable, and should not be missed by any
game player, new or old. Games of this caliber are even recommendable
to those who aren't fans of the genre at hand. |
|
Good
|
|
A
game that rates within this range is what we consider to be
good to great. The "good" classification indicates that
there may be some issues or annoyances that detract from the
experience, but overall, the game is still fun. |
|
Mediocre
|
|
A
game marked as "mediocre" is merely average in a quality.
A rating within this range indicates that there are significant
problems that can directly affect your experience in a negative
way. Although some redeemable qualities can be found, the issues
within the game make it hard to recommend to anyone but enthusiasts
of a particular series or genre. |
|
Poor
|
|
Anything
that rates within this range is not worth your time. Games
marked as "poor" indicate that there are severe gameplay
and/or technical problems that render the experience completely
devoid of enjoyment. |
