My Fingers are Blistered and Bleeding: Writing for Games

Unlike the film industry, where anyone can write a script and submit it to the film studios, there is no real equivalent in the game industry – they are simply not set up, in the main, for that kind of approach. A writer does not produce the “screenplay” for a game and then a studio makes the game. A development studio creates a proposal for a game, then brings a writer on board as the project requires it, sometimes at the point of developing the proposal itself. —Steve InceMy Fingers are Blistered and Bleeding: Writing for Games (GIGNews)

  • I didn't see that. I have reviewed a couple of games there and they work well. Go to any game and you see the reviews.

  • The home page for "gamemobile dot co dot uk" is labeled as being a text message marketing website. I don't think the site is really designed to accept reviews from writers, which the existence of the link under a topic of "writing for games" might lead one to suspect.

  • Wgy not review some great mobile phone games too!!!!

    See link for some examples.
