Our Rating System

About Our Rating System
If you're wondering about Gang Gamer Grean's reviews, you've come to the right place. Briefly, we take reviews of games and gaming peripherals seriously. On April 4, 2011, Gang Gamer Grean made a major change to the way we score and review games and gaming peripherals.
We rate games and gaming peripherals on a scale of 1 (the worst it can get) to 10 (the most awesome of awesome). The rating shown to each game or gaming peripheral is intended to give you a quick guide of the overall quality of the game or gaming peripheral under reviewed. We encourage users to read our full reviews before making any final decisions.
Games Rating
For games, we split our ratings into five major category, listed below.
Presentation, Graphics, Sound, Gameplay and Appeal.
In "Presentation", we give the rating based on the overall content.
In "Graphics", we give the rating based on the quality of in-game graphics, animation smoothness and environmental effects.
In "Sound", we give the rating based on the sound clarity and in-game sound effects, ranging from the bird singing in the forest to the sound of a battalion charging into battle.
In "Gameplay", we give the rating based on how the game flairs out upon straight hand-on testings.
In "Appeal", we give the rating based on whether or not this game is up for the long run, whether it would attract millions of gamers.
An overall score is given below the five main category to sum up the rating.
