Not sure what your grading scale is for the numbers on that Zelda one...

I don't think you'd have to spend any time gaming. I think he just wants you to write reviews for games you've already played.

For the Zelda one, I mostly thought back to when it came out and have it opposed to other classics rather than be up against today's games so that it would be fairer...otherwise, it would be a 5 or less...it's on a whole different set of games

I just found it weird that 10/10/9/9/8/7 became an 8. (I also found it weird that it got two 10/10s. Those should be pretty rare.)

Oh, you might also wanna be consistent in naming the console.

Yes, first paragraph. Then look at "Controls".

Controls is well enough explained...it's my not-in-the-least-professional opinion...I'm working on it, ok?

you need to choose a scoring system, write it down so readers can see it, and stick to it.

You should say the game first before you abbreviate it.

What is DR, CoX, NC, or EQ?

I know now what DR is but that's only because of the URL link at the bottom.

good point, but I told you, it was a direct copy from where I had it earlier and that was an MMORPG site where everyone knew those...once again, I need t work on proofreading but anyways:

CoX: City of Heroes/City of Villains
NC: NC Soft, MMO company
WoW: World of Warcraft
DR: Dungeon Runners
EQ: EverQuest

I'll work on that, thanks
