Game reviews
What are game reviews?
The definition of a review is an examination, report, survey or evaluation. An example of review is a supervisor evaluating an employee's performance as a reason to give a salary increase. They would apply this exact definition to games just like they do with films and it would give a large or popular company to review them an decide upon a recommendation or not as well as an audience being either pushed to buy the game depending on what the reviews and real customers have to say.
Another definition may be 'Video game journalism', which is a branch of journalism concerned with the reporting and discussion of video games. It is typically based on a core reveal/preview/review cycle.
An example of a Game reviews site is http://www.gamespot.com/
(As shows in image below) They have an array of games reviews available on their website which allows you to see the reviews and leave reviews as well. They also have a search engine tool on their site which also allows you to search for a particular game and see the reviews so for example if the new Call of Duty came came out, before you buy it you could visit a site such as this and type it in and see exactly what people are saying about it before you make the commitment to buy it.
