yay! I got the job at MEgamers.com as a reviewer! I am just so frikken happy right now. MEgamers is the biggest middle east gaming related site out there and reviewing for them is a big opportunity! They are no where big as stuff like kotaku, IGN etc. but its still big to me! Apparently they really liked the sample reviews I sent them :D:D!

So for now, I am going to PS3/PSP games for them. The job doesn't pay, it just means they send me the game through mail and I review and keep it to myself ^^!

For those who are wondering, the "play the FUTURE" blog series will not stop. I will just be simply reviewing games that I don't review on MEgamers.com here at TL.net! Thanks for all the feedback in my previous posts!

YAYYAYAA!! ^^

WOW man, that's really great. Reviews (of games, film, food) are something I like to do myself, but I've hardly even entertained the notion of actually getting published. Congrats!

getting a brand new video game for doing a review of it isnt too bad a deal at all
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Although, a video game costs 60-80 dollars, while minimum wage here in Ontario is 10.25 dollars. So if a reviewer spends more than 6 hours on the game it's probably not worthwhile.

I seriously doubt a good review can be written with only 6 hours of playtime.

Anyways, it's kind of nice, but I suspect it's going to get dry very soon when they keep sending you games that you absolutely abhor.

Well done dude, all depends on the quality of games you get sent and your preferences

Sounds good though, counts for experience and something to put on your CV anyway hehe

Their PSP section is pretty lacking, I can pretty much cover a huge amount of that gladely! So many good PSP games coming soon. They also let you pick preferences if I remeber correctly, so I'm avoiding hardcore FPS like MW2 ( I am not that good at them and pretty much clueless) and Sports games (except tennis). I like a range of games so I'm pretty fine with all this. I'm taking it as a chance to improve my writing and aim for greater things in the years to come!
