no prob man. The way I look at it is, if I'm going to waste my time entertaining myself on forums, may as well try to make a bit of a difference if possible. But to be honest, you guys are one of my favorite develpers in the world, and i know there are a ton of hippies out there and old-school game fans that would love your games if they gave them a chance. So it guts me a bit to think a game like Gridrunner Revolution isn't getting the exposure it deserves. So I'd probably do it anyway :mrgreen: :tea:

Thanks for your comments!
Your information has been sent to the appropriate person at Metacritic.
Hopefully they will reply me about how to send them the little graphic in place of that "M" :)

Guessing you haven't heard back yet eh Giles?

I'd suggest just sending them the pic. I'm sure they'll post it. Also, did you mention that you were one of the developers? Not sure if that helps, but it might.

I heard back.

Actually I saw their reply about 20 mins ago, now we are down the pub.

Basically they have already a screenshot and is in their "to do" queue already, they sent me apologizes because they are "a small team with a lot to do" so it's not up yet but will :)

Awesome. I do imagine they are mega busy. Sounded like there may only be one game editor. Looking forward to seeing what you guys whipped up for a cover though.

By the way, is it square, or is it in an actual box shape? I beleive Gamerankings, and possibly other sites will use mock box size for the boxart screen. Might be worthwhile to think about prepping one of those too....ok I'll shut up now :wink:

Ha, ya. To be honest, I just think it looks cool. When they changed all the games to having box art on XBLA, I think it made a huge difference in the appeal of the games. But ya, its retarded :).
