Sure, I'd really appreciate that. If you go look on uptojump, you'll see the article. The ones with ** after the title are ones I haven't edited; the ones that don't have a ** are ones I've already been over once (but I might have missed errors, of course).

I'd do O! T! O!, but I fly in the face on the Beexmind and think it's not as good as Elite Beat Agents.

YOu did? Well, I'm a shallow bastard then. Or maybe I've just gone cross-eyed from editing 10,848 words of copy (yes, really).

It's almost all edited now, just a few more of the mini reviews I want to look at and I need to sprinkle some more screenshots over it.

No. I did Super mario Kart.
:DD

aswell as Ico which was my original choice.

Well I'd rather someone who bums it gives it a go, but I have played it and it's a very similar premise.

Ok fine, but the whole paragraph will be 'comedy' about how it's not as good as EBA.

Meh, one of my write ups is for a game I've not actually played. I'd say anything goes right now.

OK I went through and reduced ** to * on the ones I'd checked, but did the whole lot in the end. Quite a few changes but only little things.

Looking good!

I had a go at it in the wee hours after I got bored of feeling sick & staring at the ceiling but it might be a better idea for you to do it unless you think this is a sensible review :DD

Wullie's fevered mind wrote:
You'd need to be a mentalist to want to be a football manager, you pour your heart into a club only for them to get pumped rotten by better teams, then the fans all think you're a dick & your players bugger off to greener fields.

Instead of putting up with that shit you could always play Championship Manager, then you can have the excitement of poring over spreadsheets & getting sacked after one season & you can do it all in your pants. The only way you'll get a better feel for being a manager is by chucking a shoe at your dog's head & developing a serious drink problem.

As you've probably guessed I've never played CM, the concept doesn't appeal in the slightest but it must be popular for a reason. Apparently 01/02 is the definitive version & it's updated regularly by its loyal fans.

Excellent stuff. :)

Just to be really picky - is it worth adding the border/caption thing to the other images on the page as with the Eve Online pic?
