Hola.

To make our reviews for the site professional and consistent, i feel we should all keep to the same structure, this is what i propose.

1. Paragraphs and sections - Open with an intro/plot, followed by Gameplay, Graphics, Sound, Final Thoughts. Obviously these can change at your own discretion and often Online is a good one to include. This is a basic template though that usually works well. Remember titles in bold and underlined!

2. I suggest a picture for at least every 2 word document pages, just to make it more eye catching.

3. Arial/Calibri style font size 11-12.

4. Scoring - I think the best system to follow is to write 3 positives and 3 negatives at the end, followed by a percentage score out of 100%. This gives a more defined verdict rather than classing games out of 10.

5. Always remember to sign your work 'By (your name)' and title it!

Take a look at one of my reviews on the site to see this all in action, and let me know if you have any suggestions or can think of improvements!
