Hey gus,
I love this website, the forums are cool wiki is awesome.
But  I couldn't help notice that only now a review came out for the DBZ game,
did anyone else notice that the reviews are taking a long time, and by the time they
come out they are outdated?
share your opinions.

They have 3 editors, and they've been busy with the site launch.

first they have 4, then they have the interns they have been talking about from the early days of HTBAB, and DBZ is a 2 months old game..

They've been busy with submissions and working out kinks in the website.

Between the site launch,then constantly having to approve everyone's contributions,and just getting back from E3 before all of this,they do pretty well. Every other review has been around the same time as a release. Remember as well though,they are only reviewing games that people generally care about,or they care about,not just every random thing that is released.

I don't think your getting the point of the site, they are reviewing games that they want to review, this site isn't going to review every single game under the sun and especially not before or on the launch date, expecting that of 4 guys and a few interns is crazy, I get the feeling this site is more about us and what we can contribute back, the stuff they do put it in is just a bonus.

Also, I'm sure there updates will get more regular once the site settles and finds it's place a little better, I get the feeling there spending most of there time at the moment just looking through all the hundreds of thousands of changes and edits we've all been making this past week.

They'll catch up soon enough. It was expected that the reviews would come slow this month.

I'm sure they are very busy, and will speed up the process of making reviews/articles soon enough.

Well don't forget- it's been busy, E3 just happened.

I'm sure they'll hire new people and it'll go faster soon.  They were very smart to choose a wiki system for games.   I'd say that this site has more games and info on it than gamespot already
might be because half the people copy and paste from other sites, lulz

no, they have 3 editors. Vinny is a video editor, not a reviewer. It just so happened that he wrote a review for DBZ, because he's the only person who likes it.
Secondly, if you think interns review games, you're wrong. The interns are there for database work and fetching Jeff sammiches.
