From the March Contest Details:

". . .the members with a TOP TEN news ranking in March will be entered to win a prize!
 Submit news and get a top 10 News ranking in March and you can win up to three games! Winners chosen at random."

They're pulling the top 10 news posts out of a hat instead of a monthly point tally.

-Mezzo-5195d ago

I didn't left, i was forcefully removed. Like 'Saddam'.

---------------

I won, IN A DRAW.

Rage_S905195d ago

Yo mezz you asked cat for your title yet?

-Mezzo-5195d ago

Yes, i sent in a request to 'Odion' like you said, 'The Sheikh of N4G. :P

Congrats to all March winners. May ye feast on victory...Baron Deathmark? (<TOR joke)

Jurat definitely did a great job of explaining Journey (which I still need to grab). I hope RobotGeeker's 'Dear Esther' grabbed some attention as well. The reason I mentioned that one is because of how agreeable his reasoning is, despite how immensely I disagree with the score; he awarded it a 9.0 while I'm more in the 4 or 5 region (which I'll get around to explaining eventually).

Feel free to comment or PM on my recent blogs/user reviews :)

Cat5196d ago

In the future, would it be fun or just burn if I list all the nominees?

What do you guys think/want?

coolbeans5196d ago

That's an interesting question. I believe it would be a great peer-reviewing tool to show whether or not newer reviewers/bloggers are on the right track. It could also act as a great way for those new reviewers/bloggers to ask the nominees for advice.

I could see the downside of feeling burned for falling short of the number 1 spot, but then again...I think everyone knows there's a silver and bronze medal-or ribbon-in every race.

C_Menz5196d ago

Wow can believe I didn't win one of the blog/review ones. I guess I'll just write about stupid game communities next time.

Cat5196d ago

(see my above comment)
Yours was one of four nominated blogs for the month.

Jurat5196d ago (Edited 5196d ago )

Many thanks to N4G and everyone involved.

@coolbeans
Thanks for your kinds words of support.

@Cat
I agree with Coolbeans' rationale. As someone new to reviewing/blogging, it's a great motivator to even be nominated for something like this. Any kind of validation is always positive.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio59d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing59d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9259d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit59d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing59d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9259d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
