They dont usually get reviews up till a while after the other major sites.
The people who run this site dont get paid for it. its not thier job.
Thats probably why there isnt a review yet

In other words.... PSX2C waits till other sites have it, so they can link to it.. :)

Ill do a review like I normally do once i\'ve played it a bit more. I don\'t want to give people the wrong idea about a game based on my excitment upon purchasing it. :)

So expect a review from me for the boards coming soon.

That\'s very commendable :D

Bought it last night. Yeah ok, you can\'t trust the hype from game companies but you can certainly trust the hype from the game players!

Played for 3 1/2 hrs last night and only did 3 missions, too much fun.

Not to mention the fact that PSX2central doesn\'t receive free copies of games from publishers a month in advance to play and review for its pending release date.

This is a small site that has to buy the game when its  released, and then sepnd time playing it in between going to school and paying bills and working a job.

Yea, we aren\'t the fastest review site around... but the reviews should come up eventually :)

I also just "re-launched" the reader reviews section. Go to the main page and check it out and start sending in reviews :D

We do get some games free (not a month in advance though :/ ), and a few people write reviews, and of course here are people helping out on the forums and with the news, so it\'s not a one man jobb.

As it is now the ads cover the hosting, and I hope it stays that way....
