A short post this time, due to my forgetfulness: For those of you who are into their games, and maybe movies, here are some resources for you to use when you try to decide on a purchase.
ESRB.org: The American Rating System for video games, the ESRB gives you short content descriptors that give you a basic view of what a game contains. These days, they even started including short descriptions.
Guide2Games: A community I wanted to be part of, before I started this blog, Guide2Games is much like my blog, except with a much larger community. They also are a lot more tolerant of spiritual content, but not always. Still, they are a good resource.
CommonSenseMedia: A secular website devoted to reviews for parents, about any entertainment medium. This website provides a bit of insight of what content a game, movie or book may contain. You might not always agree with their assessments, but it is an okay resource.
Kids-In-Mind: A secular company that does movie reviews with all the details, except for spiritual content. You will have a pretty good idea of what a movie contains when you read one of their reviews. However, there are only reviews of films from the early 90s and onwards.
Plugged In Online: If you're REALLY desperate, you can go to this website. They are very subjective, but their reviews contain a bit of detail, if heavily exaggerated.
Screen-it: Unfortunately, you'll have to pay for this one, but Screen-it's reviews are detailed down to the speck of dust. Up to you if you want to shell out some money, but if you are an avid movie watcher, I guess it's more than worth it. You'll have a very good idea of what to expect. The best movie reviews on the internet. (When they were still free.)
Kyle's Game Reviews: Okay, okay, just kidding. That's a sign that my post is over.
So that's my resources! I hope you find them useful. :P
What are your favourite sites to visit before watching a movie or buying a game? What do you think of the aforementioned sites?
