This is just a small idea, probably not needed, but still nonetheless would be interesting to have on this site. After every review, have a voting option for members to select.
Did this review help you decide whether or not to purchase this game?
Yes, I'm definitely buying this game now!
Maybe I'll just rent this game instead.
No, just not into *genre* games.
Nah, I already own this game.
You could even allow members only to rate each game on a scale of 1...10 for each game, so that each game would have the review score and then the overall score that members rate it at.
x360a Members Rating: 8.7 <- or something of the sort
This may have been suggested, but I didn't manage to find anything about it, so feel free to discuss the idea as you wish. Pros/Cons of having something such as this implemented in the future.

Great idea, i hope this gets a yes from the mods and admins

Well you can post comments yourself about the review's effect on you, like people already do.
But the second idea is good, I don't know why we don't have it already.

Before with the older server, adding features like this wasn't necessary or feasible because you needed all the processing power for the site and forums themselves. It would have been far too much workload for the old server. Now, with a server that is more capable of a much greater workload, adding new features like this would be more easily feasible to have.

I must say that i didn't know that ratings were being worked on and I'm a pretty frequent member to the site :S Maybe post it as a news bulletin or something showing us what new features of the site will be :S?
Peace

Peace We'll get announcements when everything's ready and officially released. No need for spoilers. ;)

Plus, if you use the search, or go through the feedback section, there must be 50 posts talking about ratings

Glad this is in the works as it will let people just rate stuff rather than rant that a review is just wrong, ha ha! Not saying a don't like a critique but I can only cry myself to sleep so many nights a week and still feel all tough and manly. ;)

http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj185/Ash3nx360a/ratingbutton.png My comment was directed more at the act of telling us new features ahead of time in general.
Those look nice though.

Can't wait for this. It would be nice to have a section with upcoming things for the site, the expected release dates of those new features, etc... That would cut down on a lot of people mentioning the same idea several times, as it takes forever now to scroll through the forums to read every single idea that has been mentioned and to see what hasn't been mentioned yet. *hint hint*
It would take a lot of time to search through the Feedback forum and then compile all of those ideas, etc... into one thread, but I think it'd be a worthy sticky if something of the sort were to be done and I think the x360a staff may agree. Something like this would eliminate a lot of headache and more than likely be of great benefit to x360a! ;)
