If you have visited CPC Game Reviews, you may have noticed that it has been revamped slightly. I've spent several months on and off rewriting the code for the site and finally bringing it into the 21st century! There is now a search bar at the top of each page to enable you to search for reviews of your favourite games, and you can now view the archive of news articles all the way back to the beginning of 2014 (the old site only showed news for the last six months). If your browser window is wide enough, you should also see a screenshot and a link to a random review from the site on the left of the home page.

However, some features have been removed in the meantime. All of the scans of advertisements have gone, as the prevalence of ad-blocking software on browsers meant that users couldn't see them! The database of Amtix! ratings has also gone, although in the long term, I hope to bring this back and display them against each individual review. I've also removed the page of links to other Amstrad CPC sites, as it was getting too out of date, although again, I may bring it back in the future. At the moment, I want to focus on the site's main theme - reviews.

I'm still experiencing a few teething troubles so the site may sometimes be unavailable (that'll teach me for not testing it thoroughly enough before deploying it ::)). For instance, there are still some problems with domain name redirection and security certificates that I hope to resolve.

Please feel free to offer any feedback about the new site on this forum and let me know what you think.

The random review is great for a bit of time-killing! ;D
