@Jeff: How about a "Reception" section? I usually use Giant Bomb to get my info on games, but when I want to know how it got received by professional critics and the general public I still find myself having to check Gamespot, Wikipedia, Metacritic or Game Rankings. I would like for this type of information to be available on Giant Bomb, much like you guys made available back in the day on Screened.
Now that you are part of CBSi, maybe Metacritic scores can somehow be presented on the game page? Or would that clash with the website's 5-star rating "philosophy" of reviewing games?
Regardless, even if this type of information isn't necessarily incorporated into the Wiki pages, it should still be standard for there to be a "Reception" section, much like in Wikipedia, in which the way the game was taken by audiences is described, while highlighting any notable innovations the game presented, particular harsh criticisms it had, or controversies it generated (evidently, when none of these factors are significant enough to earn their own section in the Wiki page), or other stuff that was said about said game that's worth noting.
