Would anyone be interested in reading my reviews for the MGS games?

Elai · February 17, 2015, 11:52:36 PM

I was thinking of doing it for awhile... as a big fan of the series, I think it would be a fun thing to do. But I don't wanna waste my time if there's no demand, y'know?

I was thinking of doing something like this:

Dividing up the game into categories to be judged. Such as:

Story:
-Plot
--Events that take place during the game
-Performance
--Actors performance as well as dialogue
-Presentation
--How the game presents itself

Gameplay:
-Controls
--How the player controls (responsiveness, user-friendliness, tutorials, etc.)
-Setting/Atmosphere (Art Style/Music)
--How the above traits add to the game
-Other things like difficulty, level design, etc.

Misc.:
-easter eggs
-little Pet peeves or things I enjoyed
-etc.

I wouldn't rate the game other than like this: play it or don't play it. I would elaborate on why I think you should/shouldn't.

I can also assure you that this will be nostalgia-free. No bias here.

Thoughts?

Oh shit, thanks for reminding me. I got to make a review on Halo Wars.

OT: I'll be interested in reading them.

Considering you're a big fan of the series maybe put how you feel it fits into the series and what not. To intice super fanboy discussion maybe? That'd be cool.

I'd check them out

That's a good idea...

I guess I got the go-ahead from you guys. I'll start with Metal Gear.

I have absolutely no nostalgia for these games, dude. Just FYI.

Only a liar would insist he's not a liar! My logic is without flaw!

I know next to nothing about the game so I doubt I'd understand all of it, but I wouldn't mind reading it.

Most of the review will be spoiler-free (and anything that isn't will be spoiler-tagged), so you don't have to worry about ruining it.

I'm a bit of a spoiler-Nazi, and I won't even say things like "the end of the game will make you cry" or something like that. I hate that, it sets expectations and can ruin the game for some people.

That's good. I hate it when people spoil games for me. I had a friend tell me something from a game as I was playing it that I thought was just background lore, 5 minutes later I discover that what he said was a main part of the plot.

I can just destroy any enjoyability you might get. It sucks. A lot.
