How We Score Games

Every item we review is extensively tested by a real gamer for at least twenty hours of gaming or until completion - whichever comes first. This may lead to our reviews being a little slower than others, but does hopefully mean each titles gets a fair crack of the whip. Wherever possible games are reviewed by a person who is at least a fan of the genre in which the game in question belongs.

We score everything we review on a sliding scale from 0 to 10 in increments of 0.5, the score explanations below do relate to games but are also relevant for the gaming hardware we cover from time to time.
