Coverage and Conclusions

What products are covered?

For hardware products, we try to cover most of the categories that one would ever need. Also, we chose items that are likely to have web reviews, and thus, are more popular. Some obscure manufacturers and categories have been excluded, such as webcams or floppy drives, because face it, those are unrelated to our gaming needs and who wants to read reviews about those products?

We primarily focus (based on the number of products listed in the categories) on motherboards, ATX cases, CPU heat sink / fans, Video Cards, System RAM, speakers and LCD monitors. If a major manufacturer has made it in the last 2 years or so and they have it listed on their website, we most likely have it in our database.

On the other hand, games are more tricky to cover. We exclude games that us hardcore gamer would shun, such as Barbie as Rapunzel, Big Mutha Truckers and cutesy Kirby-type games, and focusing on the ‘mainstream’ games such as Warcraft III, Doom 3 and Far Cry. It is virtually impossible to cover all of games. Besides, quality versus quantity in this case rings true.

Conclusions and the Future

So, now that we’ve given you a run-down on FS Products and its features in this in-depth article, we hope you can now fully take advantage of the content we have in our products database. At the least, we hope you now know that it exists, and that you can refer to it whenever you need. Some features we will be working on are: Quick Rate feature, for users to post their ratings without having to write an actual review and also links to enable purchasing the product.

In summary, FS Products allow you to write and view user reviews, view screenshots and photos, visit product’s official site, view products by category and manufacturers, view high resolution images of products, and browse and submit web reviews. Basically it ties all relevant content on FiringSquad into one product and its page.

We are always striving to improve FS Products by adding features and inserting more products, to make it the most complete single resource there is on the web. If you have any questions, feedback, or suggestions to improve the Products section, please let us know (you can contact me directly by clicking on my name, and using the quick contact form). For now, you can always post your feedback in our news comments – and yes, we always read those.
