That is why BoA needs our support.
GameRankings.com seems to be the premier and most exhaustive place for getting information and reviews on all games.

I wonder why somes are giving 1/10... I know that I could give it 10/10 on the other hand. :)
Does we pissed some players? I must be of the naïve sort.

The 1/10's are probably from the XBOX AND PS2 types that could never appreciate a good strategy game. On the other hand, a player like me can command the Continental Army one minute and then blow out my step-son in Madden 06 the next. :cool:

I can't imagine anyone who has actually played this game giving it less than an 8 at the very, very least.

Personally, I give it a 10.

I could see how it could lose a point or two for the small manual.

However, as a programmer myself, I know the last thing on earth I ever want to work on is documentation which is essentially what a manual is so I don't deduct any points at all.

Some game developer recently had one of the Beta Testers write the manual and playing guide. It was written from the players point of view and was quite well done.

Might be something to try.

This system of game ranking is entirely false ( even vicious ). Anybody can vote anything , for fun , to harm... without playing the game even for 1 minute. Perhaps it's the same guy who vote 1/10 three times.....

This is exactly what happens, albeit one cannot vote more than once. Some ignorant player comes along, is too stupid to know the subject matter, and votes 1.

Yeah right, some ugly coder even got one of his beta to write the FAQ of his game, but I prefer not to mention his name here in order to respect his privacy... :niark:
