6 months

cyrix · 02-10-2005

For the sake of keeping the reivews more recent and keeping some ridiculous reviews for games (like say Midnight club, or GTA3, or MGS 2) from popping up (seeing as most of by now know what the games like) I suggested a 6 month rule.

So far the response to that has been about even, though only a few responded.

So here is a poll, you the edge forum users decide. I felt a more democratic approach would be best.

I encourage everyone to cast a vote.

So....VOTE!!

I think there should be some rule, but not six months. That's just too much of a short term. I don't think people reviewing Midnight Club and Metal Gear Solid 2 is rediculous, since they are two excellent games in a world full of mediocre budget titles. People should know what games in the bargain bin they can consider. That's my opinion, mind you.

The question don't make sence.

**ZCAB** · 02-10-2005

He asks if people should be allowed to review games older than six months or not.

Free Mike · 02-10-2005

Yeah, the question is slightly confusing at first, but I voted 'No'.

Cooper. · 02-10-2005

If i voted 'no' what would i be saying? That i think you should be able to reveiw games over 6 months or not be able.

Free Mike · 02-10-2005

Should NOT be able to.

cyrix · 02-10-2005

I'll edit the title if I can or ask a mod too

EDIT: nvm...I forgot I can't...

YO MODS!!

Can you edit the title to say "Review games older than 6 months?"

**zombienm** · 02-10-2005

i think 6 months is a little short...like maybe a year though or something

Yes because not eveyone buys the latest games and if a game that is older than 6 months is reviewd on here and they like the sound of it they might buy it, so everyone will b happy.
