The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
There are some forthcoming improvements to the Freeola interative sites which will include a dedicated Games Review section of the site. This will take some time to come through.
In the mean time, we will now be allocating Gameaday prizes specifically for "review posts". Providing some decent material is submitted there will be one prize for this per week.
Reviews should be posted in the Reviews Forum. All reviews must be unique (not copied), written by the person who posts them, and based on actual personal experience of the game or movie concerned.
You can post a review even if a review already exists for that game or movie. The more the better.
We may transfer reviews into the new section of our site when it is complete.
Although we are particularly keen to build up game reviews, the reviews entered for movies, books or whatever will still be in the running for prizes. Obscure reviews (i.e. those not likely to be of interest to other site visitors) will score badly.
Reviews will be judged on the basis of:
Interest to the reader
Accuracy and completeness
Writing style, grammar etc
Conclusion and opinion (you won't win if you tell people that a rubbish game is great)
Please don't make them too long-winded.
Go for it.

Cool my review forum idea worked :) Now we get our own game review section and GADs. I'm sure it'll encourage more reviews when it's up and running. I'm looking forward to seeing 10 GTA IV reviews to choose from. ^^

The only other thing that should be brought back is the great little quote that used to be included from the winning topic/review. I always loved looking to see the choice GAD quote that the guys had found from the posts.
Or failing that, a quote of the day (though I could see the staff would probably be too busy for that).

I agree
what about my ideas:(
Weird...I was going to ask if you were going to revive a review sectiom rather than just the review forum. Noticed most Chat post wins were the reviews, so was starting to think about writing a few more reviews.
Cheers Tony :)
Cheers Tony :)
"(you won't win if you tell people that a rubbish game is great)"
this doesn't really make sense. Surely the whole point of a review is to say what YOU think of a game, how can you call an opinion right or wrong?
Anyway if we have reviews authored by ourselves which are on other sites, can they still win with those?

Has the general chat forum lost two mods, or am I just making things up in my head as usual?

If you've submitted walkthroughs elsewhere, bring them over here, and you certainly have a chance to win with them!
