Game Reviews Site

A simple website that supports adding game reviews, recommends new games to users, and has basic user authentication.

New games are recommended using k-means algorithm. We pre-cluster the users, and when some user asks for their recommendations, we suggest movies that are highly rated by other users in the same cluster.
