    This came to my mind when I was recently reading some Gamespot reviews.

    Gamespot reviewers give games emblems, such as Great Story, Outstanding Gameplay, Funny, Just Right, etc., based on the games' excellences or weaknesses.

    I was wondering if it was possible to put a kind of search engine behind those emblems. For example, I'm looking for a game with really good story, so I click on the "Great Story" emblem, and it lists all the games that recieved the emblem.

    I have no clue how hard is it to implentment this feature, but I do think this will make it for easier for users to find games they are looking for.

    Thanks for reading this.

    That was actually requested by community staff many years ago, but it seems that other items took priority over it. I have plans to create a type of overall site enhancements request for user reviews thread here in the next day or so, and will refer this link in the batch of links. Thanks for your patience, and definitely an idea the community staff have continued to pester other staff about for the past 3 years.
