Add review dates to console reviews?

Postby Verm3 » July 1st, 2015, 3:03 am

Pretty much what the subject states?

I figure that would help viewers with regards to the relevancy of the text (i.e prices. collectability etc)?

You should find a "reviewed" date with each review, under the title and publisher.

I thought this is what he was asking as well until I read it again. He is referring to the Console review sections of the site (where you do reviews for console specific reviews like for the Wii console, PS3 console, etc).

Oh I see. Yeah that would be a good idea!

Indeed, I was referring to the reviews of the consoles, rather than the games.

My apologies for not making that clearer :)

As I have noted before, the sections of each system review that address collecting are long out of date. I was just looking at the Sega CD review, and it notes that the games are easy to find for cheap both new and used. That isn't the case anymore. The 'must have' games are all in the $60+ price range now.

Adding "review published" info could help new readers contextualize the information if the reviews aren't updated to reflect current market conditions.

Perhaps I should remove the collect-ability sections, since they are outdated?

Yeah I agree personally I'm more interested in your view of the system rather than some subjective collectibility info.

I updated the spelling in the title because for some reason it was bothering me... :?

Anyway, I like the collectible console information but it definitely needs to be updated or removed. It is pretty out of date.
