Not having one, or any other gaming gear, I can't enter the competition, because I've no game to review.

Perhaps you could ask a friend if they have a console/game you could review?
Or try an online game that can also be bought in shops?

I thought exactly the same!
(as an aside, the "game review" doesn't seem to have a space for the name of the game.)

I came on here to start a thread saying just that
I reviewed a board game instead. If that doesn't count I will sue you for, er, technological discrimination
<rings solicitor threateningly>
don't mess with us oppressed minorities. Just send me the prize and have done.

You do realise you've won a prize....check your emails and winners corner
Unfortunately it does need to be a games review as that's where i will draw the winners from.

I reviewed Viva Pinata and submitted it only to realise there wasn't a space for the name of the game!

On the review page, what does "model" mean? Is it where you put whether it's PS2/Xbox/Wii etc?

Looks like most people put the game in as the model, it wont matter anyway

I complained about the same thing with a camping review thing.
I know you need more reviews of x category, but it sucks

yes this peed me off a bit to, how can you review a game if you don't have a DS, and if you already have a DS why would you be entering the comp (unless your greedy) 
It doesn't have to be a DS game you review. There are other types of computer/console games.

We havn't gopt any games consoles in our house , i have played the wii once so could review wii sports.
There you go then. It doesn't have to be a good review. The winner is random, not based on merit (more's the pity otherwise I'd win for sure)
