Hello modders,

I've thrown my hands up in the air because I just can't decide so maybe you can help. We will be doing lots more game reviews than in the past and I can't decide whether to move them all to the games forum or the reviews forum. What do ya'll think would be better?

You could always put a sub section into Reviews/Previews for Games.

Or put a subsection for Reviews in the Games section.

But, if games are becoming part of this (which it looks like they are), do what Scotty suggested and put a Games section in Reviews.

well that's the idea, it's going to be one or the other.

IMO, it's a review. I think it should stay in the review section.

Best of both worlds: Game sub section in review, and have a review sub section in games redirect to the Game sub section?

Actually, scratch that...now that I think about it that way, it's a bit confusing.

My vote is for the Game subsection in the Review section, since it's closer to the top of the page.

HTH,

Wow, no wonder you are asking us. lol

Hmmm, wow. I have no clue. I thought at first for having a subsection under the review section, but then I thought about having a subsection under the game section. So I guess your pretty much fine with whatever you decided to choose, except you have to choose. ...lol well good luck with that...

Maybe add a poll on where to put the subsection? Just don't put "idk", I think just about everyone would put that. lol

Just had an idea. Why not have a subsection under reviews/previews for every other thing? Video Games, PC Hardware, Electronics, Software, etc. ?

If you put them in the Video Games section, that part of the forums might see more traffic which will result in some of the threads there to be noticed more and get more responses. I do like the idea of a subsection under the Reviews/Previews part... I also know that it'll take some work moving everything... so if you don't want to make another bunch of sub-forums, just move the lot of 'em.

I kinda like that idea, maybe that's what I'll do.

You should sub-topic the Review channel.

Hardware Reviews
Game/Software Reviews

Put the sub forum in both and have it redirect to the same forum. I know you cando that with Invision Power Boards but i dont know about vBulletin. All you do is make a forum in one and then the other forum like redirects. easy really! best of both worlds!
