Previews

squeeesqueee Member Posts: 722
I think it is great that we finaly got game reviews, but how about game previews.  I mean every other site has them.  OK maybe not every other site, but I think it would add a lot to this site.  Plus it gives you a reason to get early copies of games and betas before anyone else.

My software never has bugs. It just develops random features.
Why doesn't DOS ever say "EXCELLENT command or filename!"

Customer: "How fast will my COM ports go?"
Tech Support: "How hard can you throw your computer?"

    This is trickier with MMORPGs.  Most MMORPG previews you read are written by someone who went to the company and got a "guided tour" of the game.  A copy is not usually just shipped off.  Even when a game is in Beta there are NDA's to work with etc.

    We will always try our best though!

    Well then you can get free vacation time, instead of a copy.  Or can you?

    LOL - that is a little costly, no?  Making trips from Hawaii to the mainland is anything but cheap image

    We are going to do something like this, but we will actually try to give people something for their money...like an ad-free enviornment and a better e-mail account as well as other perks.

    but then it would be paying for your accountimage

    so if i donate one month...and don't for a while? do i get booted down? thats what i wouldn't lke

    No, you need to learn to read more carefully image  People who donate would get "extra" things.  Like no ads, a bigger e-mail box, a better free hosting account, a bonus set of smilies..etc etc.  I would come up with some nice perks, but take nothing away that people are used to having.

    imagewell that sounds good...i like the smileys thing..

    so are you going to make a price list..?image

    example

    Send in $                            Get

    $5.00................................New smileys!

    $10.00..............................Larger mailbox & New Smileys

    $20.00............................... etc. etc. etc....

     i like that ideaimage

    It will be one price, all or one deal image  But it will be a while, and we are contemplating making it a flashlink membership (what Stratics uses) - which will be cool because with the same membership you will get unlimited access to Stratics and lots of other sites as well as discounts at software stores, etc.

    I would not expect to see any of this for at least a few months...maybe longer.
