Most gaming websites typical only feature reviews and ratings, like Metacritic, that rates games on a 100 point scale. This would topically be followed by user comment that share their opinion. But there is no easy to see the correlation between reviews and how many copies have been sold, or other information that some buyers could look at.
I propose a type of visualization that lets someone search by genre, find a game, and then get a list of data of reviews from multiple gaming networks, total sales, etc. This way someone could actually get a sense of what they are purchasing.

The reviews can be pull from such websites as like Metacritic and Steam, two very well known gaming networks. As for the the other stats, total sales can be found at VGChartz. Various bubbles can grow and expand bases on the data someone is looking for.
