The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
Okay, an absolute torrent of entries for this one, it too ka good couple of hours to read them all, and I had to kill several trees for the paper to print them all out, so no moaning about the winners.
Winner of a game of his choice - mickey, for his suggestion of a 'Gameaday Receipt' idea, of which many of you suggested, but mickey got their first. Well done, mickey.
Runners up prize of a DVD of his choice goes to Aliboy, for his 'Santa' idea. It's well put and a nice festive idea, so it's definitely worthy of a prize. Congrats.
Thanks to everyone for all your entries, we read them all and found them to be very useful. Peace out, and complaints to the usual address. Cheers

Keeping with the calander theme:
a calander free with a magazine. its one of those big calanders that have blocks for each day, not a line.
each month is pictures of a game, box shots and screenshots. then on each day it has the date etc like normal, but on the bottom of each daily box instead of saying hystorical events its says gaming events and release dates.theres room to fill in ifo as well as a block that says gameaday prize won today..... it is my ... gad win, which is a space that lets people mark their winnings.
