It takes five minutes to write a paragraph about a game. It's not as if it's a big job. |

We're only talking 40-50 words, not a 4 page review in Edge. Dr Gaywood, can you offer up the list of games not done so we can have a gander? I don't want to know who hasn't done what, just give us the games and lets see what can be done. |

Thanks Mali! Outstanding reviews now: Quote: 47. Heroes of Might and Magic 3 - 10 - RuySan 37. Championship Manager 01/02 - 10 - myp (or Runcle?) 36. Osu! Tatake! Ouendan! - 11 romanista 33.

Resident Evil 4 - 46.5 * I'll have a look for a good one later, Romanista. I actually quite like not giving people a guide though, because people have gone in different directions with it and I think that's quite nice. It only has to be very short though -- literally just a paragraph is fine (though feel free to write more if you want, some people have done so). For example, if I just add one more meaty sentence to this paragraph, then I'd say this is about the right sort of length. How's that? I really don't want this to fall by the wayside, because apart from anything else I've spent hours compiling and editing it. |

OK, all today's submissions have been put on UpToJump in the ongoing draft. Many thanks to the author. These are now the outstanding list: Quote: 47. Heroes of Might and Magic 3 - 10 - RuySan 37. Championship Manager 01/02 - 10 - myp (or Runcle?) 36. Osu! Tatake! Ouendan! - 11 romanista 33. Perfect Dark - 12 - TheVision 25. Half Life - 15 - myp 22. Baldurs Gate 2 - 17 - Mr Chris 20. Street Fighter 2 - 19 * - TheVision (alt. throughsilver) 15. Advance Wars Dual Strike - 23 romanista 14. XCOM: UFO Defense - 24 - curiosity 12. Civilisation IV - 25.25 * - Curiosity 6.

Sensible World Of Soccer - 41.5 * - myp (alt. romanista) It may please you to know the the draft is 9,045 words and roughly 50% of the entries so far have been edited. I will have another 2-3 hours of editing ahead of me -- far less time than it's going to take you to write a few paragraphs about a game! |
