Once again our review staff needs a boost, and as usual the opportunity will go to you, the users. If you have any interest in reviewing video games then please take advantage of this great opportunity. I am currently looking for one PS360 reviewer and one playstation portable reviewer.
Applicants must live in the United States of America or Canada. This is because this current reviewer recruitment drive is specifically to bolster our reviewers capable of recieving review copies. You are not guaranteed review copies, but we get a fair number these days and need more reviewers who can accept them.
All reviewers are required to release an average of one review per month, and cannot skip more than one month of releases. This means that if you release 2 reviews in July you are good through August, but need to release at least one review in September even if you released 5 in July. This is to ensure consistent releases on the website.
When you write your review it will go through our active editing process on the staff forums. During this process our content and copy editors check your review for consistency, completeness, scoring, and proper spelling and grammar. Review copies when available are offered first to those reviewers who A) take both the good and bad review copies and B) release consistently and quickly when they sign up for a game.
So how do you apply? It's simple; just send me a review sample of a game VGChartz has not yet reviewed via private message on this website. Please use our scoring system when submitting a sample review. Screenshots are not necessary for samples, but your review should read similarly to the ones already on the site. Use our reviews as an example. If your review doesn't look similar in style, length, or content to ours then you probably need to make some signifficant changes before submitting an application. There are no prerequisites for becoming a reviewer. You can join the site today and still apply. I will however take moderation history into account. Reviewers are members of VGChartz staff, and your behavior will reflect the website. It cannot hurt to apply however, and if you are concerned about your moderation history feel free to speak to me about it.
After submitting an application you will get a response from me within 2-3 days about whether it is under consideration or not, but approval as a reviewer can take up to a week, so please be patient. We have a lot of applications to sort through when we do these recruitment drives, and the editing staff as well as myself will be looking through the applications.
If you have any questions whatsoever feel free to message me on VGChartz, email me at npantazis@vgchartz.com, or message me on my AIM "naznatips."
You must write a review we haven't yet done
