Hey everyone. We've officially launched the Game Census. It's awards and rankings based on your votes, reviews, and posts. There are several categories, and we're planning on adding more as more reviews keep coming in.
What is Game Sense?
Game Sense is a gamer review site that's designed to do more with reviews. It also aims to take reviews and posts and make them more readable, and more like a traditional gaming site as opposed to a traditional user review site. The goal is to allow gamers to create their own alternative media by writing reviews, posting, and voting. We have some neat ideas planned for the future to push the site closer to our vision, and those features will roll out the more Game Sense continues to grow.
How does it work?
We invented our own ranking algorithms that are far more flexible and powerful than typical up and down votes or generic 1 to 5 star rankings. It allows us to get more information out of reviews as well as to get much more meaningful scores and information. The math and algorithms have even been looked over by some well educated people, including a PhD in Physics, and they all got thumbs up.
What's the Game Census?
The Game Census is Game Sense using the advanced features it has to categorize games based on gamer input. It allows for categories to be created for game rankings. Currently, we have rankings set up for select platforms as well as for 2015 and $currentYear. More platforms will be added once they get reviews Game Sense isn't even three months old yet. So if you want to see a platform that doesn't have a Game Census added, just write some reviews and it'll manually be added.
Game Sense takes all your votes, posts, and reviews and calculates both score and ranking and determines where the game should be ranked.
