    This is what GamerGate wants from sites. It's good to see Kotaku listening. Maybe.

    I really like this idea -- sadly right now you get a ton of hype and info about a game when it has yet to be released, but following its post-release review, you don't hear much of anything about it anymore. And that's natural of course because it's not like new & exciting info is coming out then, but there's still a lot to look at when a game has been released. I hope also that this will lead to more critical analysis of games, which can obviously only be done post-release, and which is absolutely required if we want to treat video games on a similar level to literature or movies (which I certainly do). I also really love the idea of featuring more user-generated content.

    Good on Kotaku then, and since they're such a huge site I'll be happy to see other sites follow in their wake.

    Hella. :'D Let's hope this is the start of a big new wave. I know I'll be surfin' high and joyous on it if it is.
