Indie Game Reviewer

[Anonymous]

Hey Everyone,
My name’s Jason Coomey. I’m currently working as a graphic designer/sub editor/writer for the Voice newspaper group. It’s published in Kilkenny, Tallaght, Galway and Laois and each week I write a games article for the Kilkenny and Galway editions. They’re written to be fun and interesting and a break from the normal cliched video game coverage you’d see in printed publications.
I come with a big question that’ll hopefully lead to cool stuff for some of us in the Irish gaming industry. I’m thinking that I can write articles about independently developed games created by people who visit this site, people in college and small gaming companies. People who don’t really have a PR agent to get their work out to the masses.
If anybody thinks that they can contribute in some way that’d be great. I know I’m a newcomer to the site but I did sign up before until I realised that the development side of things wasn’t for me.
I think it’d be interesting to read about newly developed local games. It’s become a major thing within the music industry and sites like myspace have really given musicians fantastic opportunities. Lets try and do the same for small game developers! Anything from a small flash game will do. As long as it’s decent enough like.
What do ye think?

do you mean you want to write these reviews for the voice or for other publications or for online sites?

I think jamie is going to restart Irish player.com and that used to have lots of reviews…

also gametoaster does reviews….http://www.gamestoaster.com/

not specifically of Irish games mind you…
