The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
Business is booming, but summer is looming
Gameaday is being reverted to one prize per day, commencing tomorrow.
The prize will be issued for the best Review. For the time being there will not be any prizes for cheats, chat, walkthroughs etc.
"Yaa Boo", I hear you say. But you have had a good run with three prizes a day. We are what we are, and that's Gameaday.
So, are the chat prizes and cheats prizes gone forever?
Not on your Nelly.
(Oi Noi, now I'm really in trouble. Better scarper. Talk amongst yourselves fellas)

When I first joined, there was only one game given out per day.
I think it is fairer that it is only given out for reviews this time...as it both promotes SR products, and doesn't get people moaning that they lost after typing up a 10,000 word essay to someone posting 6 cheats.

ME! But I'll still be here anyhow. Trouble is I've reviewed every game and piece of hardware in my collection, including a fantastic 800-word indepth review of a Sony 8MB Memory Card. (That took some doing).

If it allows SR to build up a little cash to start expanding into the unknown territories....that is, anywhere outside London and Somerset :D, complain I will not :D

So then - it looks like the GAD compo has attracted to many spakkers who post junk and don't actually buy anything from SR - so as a marketing poly it just ain't doin what SR were hoping for.
The post should have read.

Now we'll really see who's here just for the free games...
Be prepared for one lined reviews and less appearances from many members on the forums...
Meanwhile, I'll happily build up some ideas for when the summer slowdown is over (reminds SR that sales of Zelda, Hitman 2, Skies of Arcadia, etc are bound to be high).

Good. I never could win a Gameaday for something I wrote on the forums.
