The Sports Gaming Network (SGN) has an opening for a talented reviewer to help cover racing games and simulations. We need someone with extensive experience with PC racing games, a real passion for the genre, and excellent writing skills. Unfortunately, this is a non-paying position; however, you will receive free games (some preview copies, some final release copies) and the adoration of devoted readers in exchange for your efforts. If you are interested, and have a few spare hours to dedicate to reviewing the latest and greatest the gaming companies can provide, please send a sample review (that is not just 3 sentences), as well as a list of racing titles you currently own/have played in the past to [email hidden].
No one in this newsgroup likes any game except GPL. Unless you want continual reviews of a 3 year old game or multiple "it's not GPL" reviews, this is probably the wrong newsgroup to be looking for reviewers in.

Nice delivery, you should consider writing your own material. Jan. =--- "Pay attention when I'm talking to you boy!" -Foghorn Leghorn.

(fictitious game review) Well another new sim is out. I use the word sim loosely cuz this ain't no GPL. Sure sure it has nanobiofeedback technology and and uses two separate physics engines combined with a motion-sensor/force-feedback chair but the it still hasn't matched the 'feel' of GPL. In closing, you may find some of the new features like the included G-suit that pulls you into the seat or the helmet-mounted 120degree of view flat-pannel display or you may like the way each wheel can be lost by your pit crew during a change or that you can actually customize each driver to simulate seasons of competions...but ...but when it's all said and done... :) (end fictitious review) There see how easy that was...I bet if you go through that review you won't see GPL mentioned one time. :) dave henrie
