Many of us have loved the chance to win three games everyday, either by an excellent post, a review or some cheats,hints or a walkthrough most of us have gained something free out of it. Maybe not just a free game but also the chance to read some outstanding material, reviews to help you decide what game to purchase next or even the chance just to talk about the things they love.

Well gameaday is no longer three prizes a day. Tony has spoken and for me its a wonder how they managed to be so generous for so long. I remember back to the days of gameaday and filmaday where there was only one game to win each day and also one film. Now the game will go to the best review of the day.
Afterall Special Reserve is a business, there aim is to make money so they have to work out the best ways to do this.

So the point of this post?
Even though there may no longer be the chance to win a game for posting, please don't stop, please don't disappear. Chances are if you are reading this then you visit prime from time to time and take time to read the well thought out posts.
Even if you visit all the other forums you will recognise the talented posters and decent people there are around. Ok so you may not be getting a game, but those of us who have worked out what is so special about these forums will know already that there is something far better out there in these forums.

A community of people who love game, hate games, aren't afraid to share their views, opinions and help entertain most of us on a daily basis.

I've been here for quite some time, I have many great memories of great posts, certain events like the Shaneo witchhunt, the asian love prince dude, the banning of Sheepy and Goatboy as a joke, my first win, the friends I have made and the countless great stories and posts I've read.

So please stick around and continue to contribute something special to these forums. It may be the end of the three games everyday but there is still a lot on offer here.

Aye, good times.

There will still be more, everyone won't abandon the site, I hope.

On the subject on the Witchhunt, where is Shaneo these days?
