Where’s the “donate for review” button?

J/K.

Curious, do you think metacritic will pull in your reviews?

Can’t. Metacritic has some pretty specific requirements, including that we can’t edit our reviews, must assign a score, and must mention our review hardware in every review. I’m not totally opposed to any of that, but we decided we’d rather just conclude with an idea of who might be interested in checking out a game and who should probably give it a miss.

That said, we’re our own bosses here, so pretty much anything is up for grabs. If you can think of a policy change you think would improve things, tell us what and why!

EDIT: I am apparently behind the times! I just glanced at reviews for Dishonored 2, and there is a section for “in progress and unscored” reviews. I’ll have to check into that once we’ve expanded a bit.

Oh so that’s where you were hiding :slight_smile: Glad I found this site. I was actually trying to find where ex-PT writers had gone, is anywhere, then found the link in Dave’s Twitter bio… Also good to see you now write about more varied topics.

Well alright! I actually never got over to PT much back in the day, but I’ve been an avid reader of the iOS feed on BGG for years.

Let’s do this thing.

So this is where the party went! Nice to once again see many of the old faces.

And congratulations to the hale and hearty mutineers!

Hey! Just stumbled across this site thanks to Dave mentioning it at BGG. Glad to see this site is up with all those great writers.

My first thought was “I must inform all the old-PT members”, but when I joined this site’s forum I immediately felt at home. Very nice to see all your familiar faces/avatars/names.

How am I just finding out about this site now?! There’ll be no work done at all today while I catch up on the articles… Great to see all the old PT faces together again!

I thought you knew, or I would have said something.

Had no idea… par for the course lol.

Konnichiwa bitches!

As par of the course, it took me a lot longer to ‘discover’ SP. Fortunately, a recent article on PT mentioned the “other forum”, so naturally I have gravitated over here to discover all of the ‘old’ TA/PT crew.

Good to see @ShaunMusgrave on SP. His RPG Reloaded column is one of the best gaming articles I have read, period. I have never been a console otaku, thus had almost zero knowledge of Japanese RPGs before iOS and discovering the FF series via TA. From dipping my toes into FF (I am still on the final dungeon in FFIII 4 years after I bought the sodding game in the Christmas sale. Seriously), I have discovered Visual Novels.

I’ll let JapanNewbie know about the new site.

It’s pretty much GameCenter, which Apple has abandoned. Most online-multiplayer games now have longtime players scratching their heads when they can’t seem to find past opponents.

It is, frankly, verging on the ludicrous how happy I am to have finally turned up here. Thanks to JammaTal for letting me know that we, the exiles, have a home. stiff upper lip, manly handshakes all round
