The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
Over the coming weeks we are upgrading our search engine. It's having a triple destructurisation operation and invisible lurking terms enhancements.
The prize will go to the person who finds the MOST VALID PROBLEMS across our WHOLE PRODUCT RANGE in the SEARCH FACILITY.
If you think you should be able to search on "Horror Movies", but nothing comes up, then add it to your list.
If you think people will mis-spell gran turismo, then add that too - but test it first.
Use short lists if possible but multiple posts will count together. i.e. all your posts on this subject will add up and count towards the prize.
Closes 9 am on April 1st, 2001.
I recommend you read the details of our searching process which you can click to from a link at Site Map. Basically we use the start of a word, so a search on "thunder" will find "thunderball". If several words are combined it must find all.
I have to say that I'm glad I won as I spent hours typing different things into that search engine!
Hope it was of some use.
Now do I email the usual gameaday address to claim my prize?
I think he searched for everything in your magazines!
Still, well done mate.
:-)
Most of the changes will be in place by the end of this week.
THE WINNER IS:

We extend our thanks to everybody who took part.
I searched for Pokémon today so I could review Pokémon Gold but it said "No matches found for Pokémon"
So I typed Pokemon (the second syllable pronounced and spelt different to how it should be) and it worked
