Twitter Video Game Reviews - You've got 140 characters, is it good, or does it suck? Go.

Had a cool idea today. I was thinking, you know, if you REALLY wanted to harness the power of twitter, and tap directly into the pulse of the people who are buying your product, why not give them a voice?

So I thought, "Twitter Video Game Reviews". 140 characters to pretty much state your business and move on. Loved the game? Rave about it. Loathed it? Say so. You've got a voice. Just tag your tweet with #tvgr and you'll be joining a universe of people giving their two cents to anyone who'll listen.

And you know what? I bet some people start listening! Imagine how cool it would be to check twitter a week or so after your game's out and see instant feedback? Not a focus group. Not a paid review wonk. A real, living, breathing person. A person who cared enough about your game, positively, or negatively, to let people know. And it's not just for Xbox360. It's "video game reviews" not "xbox 360 game reviews", so everyone can play. Playstation 2, 3, Xbox, Xbox 36, Nintendo DS, Nintendo Wii. Whatever system it plays on (Google Android?) you can review it! Just tag and tweet. It's that easy!

You couldn't PAY for that kind of feedback, and the twitterverse is just going to give it to you for free!

  1. Wondering if you could help me? I have a video game site I'm trying to get off the ground. Maybe you can reply to my email at chris@mycorporateblogger.com
