Ok, now I am not saying that this is gonna be official, but wouldn't it be great if SR encouraged a bot interactivity with their members? Now I'm not talking about submitting posts or reviews, I'm talking about actually doing something other than typing!

I propose that SR have a competition, maybe for a game or maybe for something else, and it would involve designing the game front cover because the cover is extremely imprtant - i.e it's the reason we buy PS2 games (only kidding!).

So all entries can be sent to SR, and a winner can be chosen (not at random), and the top ten entries should be displayed on the site - I'm not talking Blue Peter rif-raf, I mean desiging quality front covers! This would give everyone an excellent opportunity to redesign their favorourite, or least favourite game's cover! Maybe you thought Crazy Taxi's yellow front was too bland, or that Uefa Striker's looked awful with Dwight Yorke posing as a monkey on it, or maybe you hat the Champ Man covers and cases!

Whatever you like! The winning post will be chosen by whoever has an unbias mind at SR, with top ten entries getting a runner-up prize - like a free inflatable chair! The winner should get any game he/she/it likes (within reason - no samba + Maracas!)

G'wan SR you know it makes sense!

Wah d'yall tink 'bout dat?

Maybe but that would take ages of time and sometimes it would be a waste of time.

As I said Dan... we would be infringing copyright!

We can't do it without permission!

That red splat does my nut!!!

No really, what is the point in splatting it all over the place claiming that a product is a red splat saver? Just look in the mag - The VMU for Dreamcast is £19.99 it always has been and yet it's a red splat saver? Does red splat saving stand for anything?

And why not have a new PS2 logo, a New DC or Nintendo logo - maybe even have a new FOG logo? No really we should keep it to games case covers.

Infringement of copyright is what I'm worried about...

Perhaps designing a new logo for Special Reserve or something... but I doubt anyone would make the effort, and SR would have to choose a crap one...

Unless I enter, of course. ;0)
