New Feature – Sunday Editorials – QTE Gamers Gives Readers Chance To Have Their Own Editorials Published

Do you have an opinion, a comment about videogames? Do you think you can write about it. Well QTE Gamers giving readers a chance to have it published on a website, a important step for those looking to get in the industry and needing experience.
all you need to do is to email us your article

All we ask is that you have a title for the article that is to the point and explains what your article is about
For Example “ Eidos, is their method of combating piracy effective and have they taken the right stance?”

if you quote or mention another article, podcast, video, etc, then you must give us what it is and put it in the article
For example” the joystiq podcast [episode 123, 1:12.10 into the podcast] mentions that...”

if your article is going to be long, we ask that you provide a brief conclusion to it which we can put above the full article

“is Eidos right to put a game ending “bug” in their game to reduce piracy. Yes I do think they were right. It only effects the hardcore, those who have seek out getting an illegal version of it, and not the general public, who have been burned before with high profile games like Spore limiting them to only a couple of installs. Edios method is less evasive, less complicated, and provides the gamer with a “demo” and incentive to get the full game”

if you have written something for another site, for a paper...then we do ask that you give us the link/name of the publication so we can mention in the post that its been published else where.

Don't worry if someone writes about something you were interested in, if you have a different opinion, or want to argue against/for their point, then still feel free to write in.

If you have any comments, or want me to give it a look over feel free to ask them.

So if your interested, if you think you can contribute then send us your work to qtegamers@googlemail.com
