This post exists to give users an idea of what this forum is for, and also to inform users of how to submit their own reviews for the site.
This forum should be used for:
• Commenting on reviews on the main site at www.sega8bit.com
• If you strongly agree or disagree with anything the reviewer says this is the place to say why.
• You should be constructive about any comments you make – Don’t just say “this review is crap” – justify anything you say.
• Making the reviewer aware of any mistakes they may have made in the review.
• Praising reviewers and telling them how much you enjoyed reading their great review.
This forum should NOT be used for:
• Rants about reviewers because their opinion differs from your own.
• Moaning about lack of reviews
• Posting reviews directly onto the forum (using the submit review on the site is just as easy as posting here)
How to submit your own review:
This is a great way to let other members know about your likes and dislikes of your SMS collection, to start writing reviews go to this page: www.smstributes.co.uk/showgamesforreview.asp here you can choose which game you want to review. Press the “review this game” button beside the game you wish to review and the main review form will come up. From this point onwards you have to write the review in our pre-determined format. You should read the “review guidelines” ( www.smstributes.co.uk/standards.htm) at this page, not only will it tell you what is and what is not acceptable to write in a review, it will also give you ideas as how to fill up all that space.
You should make sure that you have played the game fairly recently before reviewing as reviewing a game directly from memory often means you forget key details- often in life we only remember the good things. The idea of the reviews is to give other users a fairly in detailed description of the game.
