Hello gang, Player Review: [link lost in import] has been redesigned and is in search of more reviews. What is Player Review? I originally came up with the idea for player review during one of my game searching sessions. There I was reading all types of reviews from all the big *** magazines. Next step was to check out the web sites I normally go to. After all this I finally decided on a game. I pop off to the local software store(s) (of course looking for the best price) and bring the game home. Installing with anticipation of playing a great game, at least that's what most of the reviews said, I dim all the lights (I like playing my games in the dark) and embark on what promises to be a superb *** experience. Well let me just say that the game went back to the store the next day and my search for a good game continued. I'm not saying that all the reviews in magazines and on big game web sites are bad. Lets just say that I believe that revenue from advertising might sway the reviewers opinion slightly. :) Or in the case of a truly great game that just does not have the financial backing to receive the exposure that it deserves. In some cases there may never even be a review done for the game. This is when I started relying on the newsgroups more heavily for opinions of games. I've found more honest and straight forward (tell it like it is) information in the groups then all the reviews I've seen in magazines. Don't take this last statement wrong. Generally the reviews are good though I feel are fluffed up or not fluffed up enough sometimes. Gamers, who do not have to worry about stepping on advertisers toes, will hold no punches in their reviews. This is what Player Review is. There is no advertising. No one watching over anyone's shoulder to make sure someone's pride doesn't get hurt or telling them not to play it up too much as not much advertising was recieved from them. This is simply a site where us gamers can tell it like it is. Have you played a game recently that you just loved and felt that it was the best game ever? Get a review into this site and have your opinions available for all to see. How about the one game that you wouldn't even wish upon the person you hate most in life? Save some gamers some money by letting them see what you think about it. Help support this site. Remember, this site will not work if you do not take an active part in making it work. Please submit a review while you're here and make this an excellent information site in the world of computer ***. Player Review: [link lost in import] Thanks for reading.......... *---------------------------------------------------* * Life is a tragedy for those who feel, * and a comedy for those who think! *---------------------------------------------------* Joe II http://home.att.net/~jpgmer (Player Review) http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lakes/1146 Remove the spam block when replying........
