Just made a thread for white Knight Chronicles, got Bad Company 2 and think i'll make one this weekend for it, need to play the game first, will make some more for older games.

EDIT: Also made one for Aliens Vs. Predator

So to anyone who has the game give your thoughts about the game(and of course also the the other games if you have one of them)and don't be shy to put up a new Verdict for a game.

So far we have five entries to the TSA Verdict.. thanks Flex and there must be many peeps that can add a review to these games. Unfortunately I only have one of the games so far that I can add a score to ( the one I added Frown) but I will hopefully add Superstars V8 Next Challenge tomorrow seeing as it is completed to platinum but only three people have bought the game.

@Freezebug: Well, after PM'ing Cb, he rightfully said that there needs to be enough interest, ie more threads being made, more reviews in each thread etc, before it can get its own TSA's Verdict sub forum.

So everyone get adding new threads!

@Bunimo: A sub-section for games is a good idea. Although I don't think there needs to be a different one for the demos, opinions on the full games are more likely to be accurate. Sub-sections for Retail and PSN games maybe? But again, more threads needed.

@Casey: A price section is also nice idea but it may be difficult for people to decide how much they would pay for a game.

Seriously guys, don't be shy to start a thread, as soon as you think you have a grasp of a game, get a verdict thread going.

Bad Company 2 came out today, anyone got it and willing to make a thread?


The way I see it you just need to go through each price category and best see which one the game is worth. The more I think about it the more I feel it would work as a way to see, at a glance how good a game is, aswell as making purchasing decisions easier. But thats just me.

Also, is the idea that only people who have played the game give a verdict or that every member should be giving a verdict? because unless its the latter, choices D and E in the current format are unneccesary.

I see what you mean about the pricing, it could work I suppose, although we don't want to make them too complicated – we are getting very few reviews as it is.

Yes, the point of choices D and E are for those who haven't got the game. It shows everyone else whether or not there is interest in a game or not. For example, if someone wanted a game but couldn't afford it, they can't give a review on it, but they can show they are interested by choosing option D.

It would work but there's a minor problem, as there are members from different countries then you'll all sorts of money mixed together.

And maybe it's an idea if we give every verdict a score ranging from 1 to 10. that way people can see faster if people think it's a good game. then if they want to see what people like about the game the can read what people think are the pro's and the cons of the games.

Fair point I'l let that idea die then. tongue

I agree with a score, maybe out of 5 though to make things simpler?

Well i don't think i'll make a bad company 2 one yet as i got Final Fantasy XIII todayCooltongue,maybe i'll make one for that game instead in a few days, but from what i've played from the game it's absolutely amazing. all games i was working on have come to a halt because i want to play this game so bad, as this is THE game i was waiting for from the moment it was anounced.

I tend to add the prices anyway to my reviews and where to buy 99% shopto.net but anyhow Shock where is the point at which we can have all of these topics grouped into a thread of it's own? 100..200..hits, what's the going rate.

I'm waiting for a new area for us before writing a PSN review or two. If it's not forthcoming, I'll get on the case in General Chat.

Awesome, thanks nofi. And loving the tagline. :D

I'll put up the results of the Heavy Rain Verdict tomorrow or Friday, as I was busy all weekend.

Not really sure how I should do it though…

Add all the scores and get the average, then take the most common pro and con in your view of reading them and add those to the final verdict with maybe an excellent, good, average or poor at the end.

Awesome, really glad you could make this happen, hopefully this'll help get more people involved.

@shock, maybe you could put in the final verdict at the end an then eventually we could have a mod edit it into the first post. Though that might be too much extra work.

Nice ideas guys, that'll make it pretty easy to see.

I'll see if I can get Mikey to edit it into the first post once I've done it.

Might I suggest getting this thread pinned as it's the one people need to read if they're new to TSA Verdict

You might suggest that. Mikey?

Although, at the moment, there aren't enough threads for this to fall to the second page yet, but good idea.
