We are www.projectormonkey.com and we're looking to expand our initial idea of a movie review site to the things people love in their lives. Music and Videogames! What we need from you is the writing talent that can present our readers with the lowdown on all the latest games across the platforms. Specifically we are in need of DS and Nintendo Wii reviewers. The benefits are simply that you'll see your work published on the web for the world to see and be involved in an up-and-coming site early on. I'm particularly interested in writers who have the financial ability to play/own a varitey of games as they are released and feel they can deliver punctual and elloquent pieces. What make us different is our review style, short and sweet, noone wants to read an essay for their gaming advice, so 200ish words suits us fine. If anyone is interested please contact me at - projectormonkey@googlemail.com Thanks all Stuart (p.s. mods hope this isn't considered advertising - sure pm me if there's problems)

Yeah well I'm not looking for linguistic magicians just people who can throw together a short piece on their passion. To be honest dependability is more important than anything. Edit - forget to put this mock up our designer has this so the site should be redesigned within 2 weeks - the initial design is our template but here's a taster.

I do have access to a wii, but I tend to not buy, care about, or even really play new games. I guess it could tie into virtual console type releases but I probably would be playing on old hardware so I can't speak to how well it plays on the new hardware. Dunno if that's in line with your plans though.

Kirby Posts: 1,673 Group: Kirby Member #387 Joined: April 1, 2005	Well here's the downlow, the response from across the web has been very encouraging, a lot of positive responses and a lot fo applicants have applied already. I however have a bias to anyone currently residing on the NF forums due to my years spent haunting the boards, but what I need from anyone applying is a review, this is to satisfy the other admins.writing staff on the site. I would love to get a short review on whichever avenue you choose, be it music / games or movies Please keep it around the length of 200 words. I will need some personal details, simply msn or skype details, age, name , country, what consoles do you have access to? Most important is your preference or what you could write for us. We are specifically interested in filling the music positions, but i would love some Nintendo and other related writers. And we'll get back to you ASAP We hope to have the site up in the next few weeks and the reviewers hired this week. Thanks again all
