The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
We used to have plenty of great discussions about virtually all aspects of gaming and the pieces of writing from most members was quality!
Now when there's even the thought of a female member, you are all sad enough to go drooling!
The months before christmas we had excellent standards for prize winners, most of those who won deserved to, those who didn't deserve to cheated, so it was there own fault if there prize wasn't sent to them.
Now I find that there are too many forums! In the games forums, sometimes we only get one post per game out of the games which have messages posted recently. This shows a lack of interest by the users.
The cheats site has always been poor. Most of the cheats don't work and have never been tested, which shows they were just copied out of a magazine or another cheats site.
The reviews that have been awarded, have been reviews of brand new games! And although this is good for Special Reserve as when people read these reviews, they are very likely to buy that game, it's not fair for those who can't afford these games even though the prices are generally cheaper here.
The worst part of this deprovement of the site is the members! It's mostly the newbies who are winning again! People keep changing their names, people are allowed to make insulting comments as long as they don't use too strong language, and some members are just idiots!
I have not named any of the members who make me feel that the site's quality is degrading cos it's not fair on them, but I do feel that it's time things were changed!
Well I don't need to win!
I've got enough games to last me a lifetime!
If I ever win again then great! If I don't, never mind!
As one of the longest going regulars (not THE longest though) I've seen this board change so many times!
It was much better when there wasn't a forum for every game but just for the very popular games!

Oh yeah we do, very much Sniper.
We appreciate you, honest.
Be happy
But you can tell the posts designed to win, not that
> there's anything wrong with them, but like you say, to then bleat
> about "Why didn't I win?" is amusing.
To the people that whinge and complain by saying "why didn't I win", i suggest that you actually read the person who won that day.
When i got a little down when i didn't win, I looked at the person that did win, and I thought the post was way better than mine, and I even improved on a thing or two by reading his post.
Just an idea...
> Rasta leve me alone and my opinion is no grudges against people,
> anyone can win, reviews of games not out shouldn't be rewarded we
> need in depth reviews of their own views not views from other sites
> and cheats should be rewarded for a large amount put into the DB.
errrrr, can someone translate that into english?
