    Default Hiring writers for gaming webzine Retrocade

    Hi everyone!

    I decided to start a webzine that will talk about anything retro gaming. I need writers that will send me reviews, articles and essays on anything retro gaming related, you can write about how you love the Gradius series, what's so great about the DC, weird peripherals that came out for NES etc, etc The only limit is your imagination, and also no articles about GCN, PS2, XBOX, GBA, Ngage and upcoming consoles and handelds. We won't cover PC at the moment either.

    Here is a preview of the cover,editorial and a page







    Tell me what you think, if you want to be part of it, and also if you want to send articles in .txt format (with pics to match it if you want), send em to [email protected] with the name you want to be referred as in the zine.

    EDIT: also if you send a review, give it a note on a scale of 10, and give two pros and two cons about it

    EDIT 2: Also supply me with a picture you want to use as your writer's mugshot, it doesnt have to be gaming related

    Really cool looking 'zine, if I ever think of anything I'll send a mail, but I really don't know anything interesting so that likely won't happen.

    Keep it up whatever, I fully support this idea.
