About Played and Rated

This site is for people who want a clear verdict on a video game. Playedandrated provides that verdict by answering three questions: is it worth your money, is it worth your time, and will it run on your machine. We cover this through sections including Reviews, Comparisons, Performance, Prices, and Hardware. Our focus is on providing practical information for readers, particularly in Latin America, covering everything from game subscriptions to language and access details.

Our news is produced by rewriting stories from other publications. Each news item names and links to its original source. Where possible, we check facts against a second source. Every article carries a clear publication date. We do not invent stories, rumours, or statistics. The news section covers announcements, updates, and industry developments relevant to our readers' interests.

We build permanent reference pages to serve as useful factsheets. These include pages for individual Game Reviews, Comparisons, Genre buying guides, Platforms, Series, and Publishers. Each reference page contains a table of key facts, structured sections of information, and at least one real photograph with a clear credit to its source. These pages are updated when new relevant information, such as a price change or a performance patch, becomes available.

Playedandrated is independent. We are not affiliated with any game publisher, platform holder, or hardware manufacturer that we report on. You will find no betting or gambling content on this site. If we make a significant error, we publish a correction openly at /corrections/ with an explanation of the change.

If you have a suggestion or need to report an issue, please use the /contact/ page. Playedandrated aims to be a straightforward, reliable tool for making informed decisions about games.
