Er, talented as all these gameaday winners are, I don't think it is quite fair that they win for reviewing a game that isn't out yet, they win for PSO and such like and we are still waiting for the game, HOW CAN THEY REVIEW A GAME THEY HAVEN'T PLAYED, chances are it is either copied are arranged from an american review, I don't think this is fair when there are other people writing reviews for games that are out and posting messages that everyone can relate to.

Just because PSO is a game everyone is raving about doesn't mean that people should be rewarded for reviewing it, they haven't even played it, and for the one person who actually has played it give him gameaday because he can review it genuinely...

Look at the Playstation Reviews or N64 reviews not the reviews for future games, PS2 even but OUY CAN'T REVIEW AND UNRELEASED GAME!

THE GAME!!!

I think Ali only picks these as winners to annoy some of the 'regulars'.

To be honest if it's well written I don't mind.

As long as it isn't a blatent rip-off of something else, it's okay by me.

And that's how, for now.

Yeah, but someone also won for a review of MGS2!

I've nothing against anyone winning - even newboes who never even return to claim their prize - but it does seem a bit off to me. I mean, I could write a review for Tomb Raider 9, and as long as it's entertaining enough it could win - and that wouldn't be fair on everyone else.

I believe Savatt said that he had the game on import, so fair play to him.

And that's how, for now.

Well I am glad you all agree, I am not really complaining but I still think it is pretty stupid that they cant win for reviewing an unreleased game! Still I guess I wouldn't be moaning if it was me that won...but still....rules is rules and thie is one that SR should probably make! There is nothing wrong with posting about a game that is due to be released as long as it is a PREVIEW and not a REVIEW.

I have actually read Savat's and it is a REVIEW and the kid hasn't even got the game!

Maybe you can also win if you reply to a post that hasn't been written yet?
