The limit for reviews was recently reduced to 6000 characters. This is due to be further reduced to 4000 characters as we feel that most people prefere to read shorter reviews.

We hope to have a place for Walkthroughs soon with a much higher character limit.

Walkthroughs? What are they? I have never even heard of them.

Anyway wont this just be another thing that cheaters will be able to copy. Probably the reason Sniper said that they should not be put in for GAD.

Walkthrough's shouldn't be part of GAD though just an extra reference for stuck gamers.

Hmm I don't think that I need to worry really. My reviews will never reach the limit.

Speaking of reviews I would like to know if any of the notables/goo regulars would like to put forward maybe one of their reviews to go on my site. It will not be up for a while but I am constantly making it better and better.

Full recognition will be given to you and if you want you can give me a URL that you want me to link to (ie your homepage).

Dan, this is all your fault you do realise!

I think there should be two sections. One for short reviews and one for Dan's reviews :-D

Whaddya think Ali?

You know where my future reviews will be going don't you...

There should be those ten word reviews, usually written by kiddies and published in the official Nintendo Mag - stuff like "the game is absolutely fantastic!" and "great!"

Tony, i think there's a problem with my M:SR review.

When i click on my details link, and then go too see reviews by this author, nothing happens. The page stays blank.

Just thought i'd let you know.

Hurry up with the walkthroughs,(no rush) I need loads of em. Its not cause I'm not a good gamer (er...hem) but I get easily side-tracked, and it will help to find out where I'm actually am, and where to go next.
