I agree. It needs to look more exciting. I still think the review system should be built into this website, though.

i think that sort of thing would work best separate from the BYOND website. maybe it wouldn't get as much use, but maybe its not that useful. if it was part of the BYOND website, who could review games? if only approved volunteers could do that, well, we've seen how well that system works.

if anyone can post a review for a game, then i just don't think that would work too well. people would tend to review games that they only love or hate, both being extremely objective. of course people love the games they have GM in, and they hate the games they got banned from, but that doesn't make for a good review. if there were a lot of bad reviews, someone has to police them.

allowing anyone to post reviews could work if some people just went through the hub and tried a lot of games and reviewed them legitimately. but, if someone was dedicated enough to do that, they could start up their own website for the reviews =)
