News refresh

Alright, like I said we will be starting this up again. A few items of housekeeping to keep in mind while we start this up is that each week (starting with the first new one), we will be experimenting and trying new things, new types of articles and different kinds of reviews. In the past, I'd review the car and submit my review. When I posted the thread asking for alternate suggestions as far as content, one idea stood out more (to me atleast) in regards to reviewing. I will still be reviewing the car, but I will also hand the car over to another reviewer and share my review with them and see if they differ on key points. I, along with others, feel that this style of reviewing will prove to be more effective (see: time consuming) in the long run so if you want your car/tune/etc reviewed, please inform a member of our staff at the beginning of the week either via PM on the forums or XBL message. A good form for this would be as follows:

Tuning house/paint shop it belongs to:

Car being reviewed:

Special focus points during the review: (this would be like "I made this section glitter/carbon fiber/metallic, please review what you like about that section." It's mostly so that if you have put the effort in to that area, we don't skip over it and you aren't upset we didn't mention it :) )

What the price point of the car is: (500,000cr, 750,000cr, etc)

Will this be a LE or an Unlimited release:

If a replica, what inspired you to make this car:

If a fantasy design, how did you come up with the idea for the car:

If you have any other suggestions as to what to put on your own personal form, feel free to put it down at the bottom. This information could help us greatly with the review so that we can put out quality reviews on your car and every other car being submitted. In addition to this voluntary process, we will also get in touch with other garages asking to review an upcoming release. There are some guidelines for this though. Some of our staff, myself included, work for tuning houses and paint shops. We will not be allowed to review our own cars, regardless of if we painted them or tuned them. Say for example DDR is about to release an awesome car. I can't review it, because I would be biased and say it's an excellent car.

If anyone else has any ideas regarding experimental items we should try, please feel free to post a comment to this message or any of our upcoming issues to say what we should try.

We will be back.

Oh yes, we will.
Coming soon, within a week. Possibly.
