I like what you say.

Can't wait to see the site 'up and running' again.

If banners are out of the equation for now, what can I do to contribute to the 'Reloaded:Reloaded' ?

Reviews seem to be the most obvious answer, but I've never had much luck with them. Written a few, and it's a lengthy process to say the least. Two, three are still kicking around from over a year ago!

I will of course, give it another go. Anything else we can do to help out?


Pass me the keys to the bulldozer plox, i will smash dah ViPZ in maISelF!

If you still have those reviews, could you send them to us again please?  

You could also help out by posting in the Art Thread again.  We wantz the artists.      Is there any games you would like to see on Reloaded?  If so, post it in Requests forums.  Or why not discuss some of your favourite games in the Favourite Games thread.

For everyone who wants to help: besides forum posts we really need reviews at the moment
We have a list here. If there's something that interests you don't hesitate to claim it.

Well, as soon as I'll finish my STARS! review for AB I'll see if I can go back to DF, now that its integration on the site been cleared up.

Heyas,

I've picked up Perfect World recently. It's a free to play Japanese mmo. Micro-transaction model, but wholly free to play unless you WANT to spend money on it. There is enough of a 'game' there, to be worth playing without spending any money.

Similarly, I submitted a review for Anarchy Online, a MMO that is both free to play, and pay to play.

Free to play access extends to the original game, forever. You can then upgrade to 3-4 expansions packs, and a monthly fee. Again, the 'original' pack was actually pay to play in the past so there is enough content their to warrant a posting on the website.

@Frodo - I have a new PC so I can't resubmit those reviews. Not to worry, Anarchy Online could do with a re-write as I've actually hit the end-game content now too.

I take it I'm okay to work on games from other sources as well? There were a couple freeware games mentioned in my copy of Edge recently that sound interesting!

If PW, and AO sound review-worthy, I'll knock those out this weekend. Or at the very least, make a solid start at them!

[Frodo]

As long as they are freeware, Sean, you can go ahead and review them.

There was some controversy about such MMO's in the past, but personally I have absolutely no trouble with extending our reach to incorporate them. No need to be choosy.
As for freeware from other sources; it would still be nice to go through the 'requests' forum or to-be-reviewed list and emmediatly claim them. That way we can keep track of who does what and, should a review never materialize, have it on the list for someone else to take
