Hey guys,

I haven't talked to Green about this yet (Sorry babe ♥) but I thought I would see what you guys think!

I am contemplating allowing people to review certain hardware including:
-Consoles
-Console accessories (mics, headsets, controllers etc)
-TV's
-DVD players

And I am also contemplating letting people review DVD's, but it will only be DVD's because you can also review the extra content that is included, and I would prefer no-one to ruin new releases for people :) This would include:
-Movies (normal and Blu-Ray)
-TV Shows (normal and Blu-Ray)
-Documentaries (normal and Blu-Ray)
-Porn

Don't actually review porn or I will kill you :P

Please vote for one of the options in the poll and post to let me know your opinion! I am for both of these, but please let me know (Green vote and leave your opinion so at least I know where you stand on this :) )

Also the reviews will just be added to the Other Genres section ;)

If my word counts for anything.

I am not for hardware reviews at the moment. I would say we start out with Movies at this stage and see how this goes before we move onto TV shows and what not.

Even though i sort of support Movies this is gaming review section. But I like the idea of adding Movie reviews

I voted for hardware but not DVD's, because in my opinion I don't really see much point reviewing DVD's if we already post about Films & TV Show's on another forum. But Hardware Reviews could be very useful!

Of course your word counts for something, you are the co-leader of this section ;)

I understand what you mean, so I'll try to PM you tomorrow and we can discuss about the Movie Reviews, but as some have said they do like the Hardware.

I voted none as there is no value in a review without porn.






I voted no as this is a gaming community and taking emphasis away from games makes it another community forum. I feel value in reading a thread about a product/game/tv show/movie where it is discussion and not one person posting a wall of text or a non standardised opinion peice.

I think this for me comes as I prefer to read a full review from someone with similar tastes and expectations to myself (so I can value the review and it gives it weight).

Having said that, it would be as easy to avoid as the nintendo parts of the anwa forums so I shouldn't care :)

There are only...5 pieces of gaming hardware? I think movie reviews should be allowed but in another section.

Hardware would cover peripherals too I think Brink. Headsets, controllers, chargers, all that stuff.

I would only say hardware. Don't see the need for the rest.

Hardware would be a good addition to the reviews sections. As previously stated this doesnt have to be restriced to consoles - Im looking at getting a new TV so stuff like that would also be worthwhile for me anyway.

I guess you could review and talk about movies in the tv and movies section.

OK I want everything to slow down just a tad! I certainly think hardware reviews is a natural extension of game reviews but I think hardware reviews can cause problems.

Unfortunately with gaming communities such as ours comes the fan boy problem eg. People reviewing hardware their don't own but think they are entitled to because they "borrowed it off their mate!" Giving video game console hardware will be troublesome when we already have an unhealthy split brewing between COD & BF players and their opinions on each others games.

Unless such things are satisfied, I have to say NO!

Luminal, I think that if we steer clear of the consoles themselves, then it should be fine. As long as the person has had enough experience with the device *cough* OWNS IT *cough* then the reviews should be good. Even the controllers could be reviewed as long as the person owns all the consoles (we are looking at you Luminal!). I don't see how fanboyism can appear on peripherals!
