This Review Example is a combination of both #1 and #2. It contains an actual review of specific points in the game along with the Pros/Cons list and the Editors Recommendation.

Each review must have atleast 3 Pros and 3 Cons.

Pros/Cons List:

  • Pros:
  1. Great Gameplay
  2. In depth Storyline
  3. Attentive Customer Support
  4. Friendly UI
  5. Easy to play
  • Cons:
  1. Lack of quests
  2. Very grindy
  3. Small community

Each review must have these categories reviewed.

Specific review:

  • Player Vs. Environment: 8/10

This is where a review on the PvE system would go. Of course, if there is no PvE system in the game then this will not be in the review. PvE means Player Versus Environment. When we say environment we mean things such as Monsters in within the game.

  • Player Vs. Player: 9/10

Player versus player should be pretty self explanatory. When we say PvP we obviously mean the system in which a Human player fights another Human player or players. This can be a Duel system or an all out war system.

  • Skill System: 6/10

This is where the skill system of the game would go. Skill system meaning the different moves, special attacks, etc you gain as you level up. Some games do not have a skill system so this may not be applicable for all online MMO’s.

  • Storyline: 10/10

Storyline will include quests and the basic background story. If the quests do not follow a clear line and it was not intentioned then we may not give it a high score but if it follows a clear and well thought out story then it will get a higher score.

  • Graphics: 5/10

Graphics will be reviewed on how detailed they may be. Older games can still get better graphic ratings than newer games. When we mention the graphics of a game we don’t just mean the looks of the character that uses Unreal Engine 3. It can also mean the landscape and details of the game.

  • Community: 9/10

The community grade is based on how active, large and kind a community may be. If a game has a small community but has very nice people then it may get a higher review than those that have a large community but have very rude people. Please note though that there are nice and bad in all games.

  • Customer Support: 7/10

Customer support is a review based on the support (of course) given in game or out of game by the Community Service team of the game. This can be the Game Masters or anyone else with authority.

  • Recommendation:

I would definately recommend this game to those that enjoy a great story background in games and has a great gameplay and skill system. Those who care mostly about the size of community and the grind may not enjoy this game as much. The developers used Unreal Engine 3 to develop this game so it has a great graphics base and never gets old. The only downside to that is you may be required to have an updated computer system.

  • Overall Score

The overall score is then calculated by the 7 categories.

Example:

  1. PvE: 8/10
  2. PvP: 9/10
  3. Skill System: 6/10
  4. Storyline: 10/10
  5. Graphics: 5/10
  6. Community: 9/10
  7. Customer Support: 7/10

= 7.7/10 = Round up to 8
