2. Overall Site design style (high level) Site will have an overall design similar to a social networking site in which users will have the ability to leave reviews and rate games. Each user will be able to sign in and control certain personal aspects of their account (picture, email, other contact info). Users will have to signup in order to review games and rate games. Users may rate a game only once. Guest users may view ratings and browse the site. They may not leave comments or rate games.

This location will be organized into different game platforms on the site (Android, iPhone, Windows, etc.). The game platforms will have submenus which classify game genres. It will also have a link back to the home page. Large area will have artwork with links to the Game page (next slide). The artwork may be game logos or small screenshots of games.
