NBA 2K11 PC Review

Postby Alphasim on Fri Oct 15, 2010 7:06 pm

I'm sorry if this is out of place, but I thought I'd share the NBA 2K11 PC review that I wrote. I run e-AAGH.net, so that's where it is. I hope folks enjoy it. FYI: I may have gone a wee bit overboard with the pictures. lol

Thank you for your time.

If I may review your review.

The website, it resembles something circa last decade. Spelling, grammar, and so on, could be better. Really, you should explore the concept of criticism, this reads like a PR sheet for the game. Push yourself to find the logical flaws in the game, explore the bugs, evaluate the content properly. Ditch the multitude scoring system and fall back to your 1/5 top score (without the halves) to force people to read your reviews and you to write better reviews.

If your opinion can be fully explained with a series of numbers, anything you write is irrelevant, most idiots will just look at the numbers.

I'd link you to my pretty simple deconstruction of Live 07's (I think) myriad of logical flaws but alas I currently cannot. But truly critical reviews can do great things to inform readers of why they should not only purchase or avoid a game, but most importantly why they should trust you.

Pictures are fine I thought.

edit: Ok, I had wrote a long, winding response, but this isn't really the place for it. :) In short, thank you for your opinion, I'm sorry it doesn't appeal to you, and I'll try to improve in the future.

Just a small update; if you aren't fond of my current look, then I'm afraid you might not like my new design either. :cry: I felt that my old look was overly busy so I'm simplifying everything - simplicity is best. Here's a pre-release preview of the redesign in progress!

The stars did fall from grace, but the numerical ratings remain. I'll likely have the overhaul pretty much done by Halloween.

edit: Or sooner. The site update is finished and live.
