After I stumbled upon Games GAD i found it quite amusing, but also was worried that it may cause some untruthful GAD attempts from all corners. What have I uncovered, a seedy trail of GAD winners who I do not believe for a second have the articulate prowess to write a proper sentence never minad a coherent argument or review!!!
Kermitboy, sorry to do this but, I think SR may wish to read this review http://www.gamezone.com/ gamesell/p11761.htm. You may find it is word for word exactly the same as Kermitboy's!!! Casa Nova has also written a good review of Extermination, but again I am highly suspicious and if anyone knows where the original can be found, post it.
I am all for the freedom of speech etc. but I am not willing to sit back and watch decent articles written by the likes of DAN2K1, not win because of people blatantly cheating. I know Game didn't do this, and SR made the mistake on that one, but the reviews are beyond the joke. Just read a few of them, especially by newbies and very few are capable of such a professional standard!!
I am shocked and appauled that such a decent scheme is being so blatanty ripped off by these vultures and I am quite sure SR will feel the same. Decent honest people put hours into writing really good posts and thene inarticulate wasters come along and use the copy and paste function to get a free game!!!
I am truely disheartened!!!
Bonus. :(
I don't think this is about a free game anyway, it's about pride. Saying you've won a GAD get's you noticed and people treausre that more than the game itself, for some reason I don't know.
Dank 2K1 proved my point for me when he said " I don't care about the game, I want my post to be noticed" Personaly I get more satisfaction if I get good comments and replies from the people on these forums that I respect, I value that kind of recognition more. Obviously the game is nice, but I would still be here even if GAD didn't exist.

Erm we should.
Simply because if it's your review then you will be able to prove it.
