Excellent news on the new look FH, I'll catch up with ya later, see how its all going.
FC
thanks FC,
Just remind me over a weekend when your online so i can get started on it for you.. Ive been trying my best to get 360-hq.com as a base for everything network wide.. My dreams are slowly coming true now since ive written many custom functions that work sitewide..
So hopefully.. (and i say hopefully) it wont be too much drama to upgrade the xbox games/reviews area on xbox-hq to the same style and version.
anyway, let me know when your keen.. I just dont want to go to all the effort if no one will be writing any.. Come on members.. Get your own reviews in.

I would write some hobbs but they would only have 3 words lol. This game sucks or this game rules. Sorry but I believe if a game sucks it sucks and if its good its good.

Reviews are an integral part of life.
If you were buying a car, you'd have someone tell you about it first. If you were picking holiday destinations, you'd consider destinations rated highly. Each one of us follows a review of others each day, its part of life, it prompts us to try new things or avoid things that could potentially be bad.
Games are no different. Someone with an objective point of view, who has played the game can offer their OPINION on the game. That doesn't mean if it gets a bad review avoid it like the plague, it means that its your choice, but you've been made aware that this could be the outcome. We review things every day. How often have you said "try this, its much better...."? Thats because you've reviewed it and are now passing on your opinion. That helps others.
So I say, long live the Reviews Section.
p.s. FH, I'll try and catch up with you about new look.

Ummm, I had kinda covered that! Now come on, how many of you have heard your mate go: "You must play xxxxxx, its a great game. Try it!"
Then you've played it and loved/hated it? Thats because whether you knew it or not, you're following the advice of the review. And people, thats the key word, ADVICE. Reviews advise you about the game, but as with all things in life, whether you choose to follow advice or not, well thats entirely up to you.
