The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.

Yes, thanks, I'll check it.
PSO shows nothing rather than Phantasy Star Online. Also JSR doesn't show Jet Set Radio. MSR however does show Metropolis Street Racer.
People do like to use acronyms so makesure that you can find what you want using them.
Also PS and PS2 searches for MGS come up blank.
POKEMON STADUIM
I have also tried a search for your search word(s) in our entire database and found nothing. Sorry.
This is bad, the biggest Nintendo product ever not found in SR search database thing! FIX IT!
I mean uh....'POKEMON STADUIM' doesn't work
Probably because I tried to see if it worked with the wrong spelling but anyhoo...
I think
The Game
gives you a the hit:
£20 DEPOSIT FOR THE XBOX (X-BOX X BOX X - BOX)
However "Microsoft" gives you no hit for the X-box,
As "Sega" gives you a hit for Dreamcast and "Sony" gives you a hit for Playstation 1 and 2 and Nintendo gives you a hit relating to the Gamecube then maybe you would want to change this?
