Sphere: Related Content
Writing an Xbox 360 game review can be fun, but there are some simple guidelines that you need to follow in order to make your review successful. The first thing you want to do is know your target audience. An Xbox 360 game review will be written in different styles depending on who the audience for your review is. Users of the Xbox 360 game system range in age from the very young all the way to the very old, so keep this in mind when writing your Xbox 360 game review. If you have a review for younger kids, try to keep the review simple so that they or their parents can explain to them what the game is all about and what benefits and features it has that are relevant. If it is a game designed for more mature players, you probably will want to say that and slant your review accordingly. One example of this would be an Xbox 360 game review for games that are extremely violent. A review for children would probably put the game in an unfavorable light, while one for adults or teens may view the game very favorably. Again, your audience plays a huge role in determining how you review a game.

What games to review?

Choosing which games to write your Xbox 360 game review about can be a tricky decision. When you first start out it is probably best to pick a game you are very familiar with so you can write an in depth review. I would not do an Xbox 360 HD DVD review as more than likely a review will be out somewhere else. As you get better at writing Xbox 360 game reviews you can move on to newer games and titles that you are less familiar with. Also, at first I would avoid writing about controversial games and stick to titles that can be played be a wide audience. Sports games are great for this. In addition, many sports titles are built around the same player control engine year after year so your reviews do not have to change much as new titles come out. My suggestion would be to find a sports game that you like to start your Xbox 360 game review off. If you are not a fan of sports titles, perhaps then you may want to look at a children’s game or a game that can be played by children. For the Xbox, the Halo series of games has long been fun for a wide variety of players. Try there and I am sure you can find something you will enjoy. So in conclusion, the thing to do when writing Xbox 360 game review is to know your target audience and review games you enjoy, if you do that are sure you will find writing the reviews enjoyable and satisfying.
