Thumbs up Want to Write for PlanetXbox360, Click Here...Updated!!

So we are REALLY looking for a new review/preview writer. What I need is someone that is reliable and can meet deadlines. You must own a Xbox 360 and have access to either renting (Gamefly) or purchasing games.

The pay is totally decent (paid per article) and it can easily pay your monthly GameFly fees plus some, it all depends on how much you want to write. This is a great way to your foot in the door in an industry impossible to get into. Your articles will be views by thousands of crazy 360 owners every week.

If you are interested shoot me an e-mail at ultimalaw@gmail.com if you are interested and we can get straight to working together!

This is actually pretty interesting. I've always wanted to write for something but unfortunately I don't possess the creativity or a GameFly membership. Cool opportunity, though.

Why bother sending an e -mail saying your interested when you aren't going to bother meeting the deadlines? You don't sound really interested otherwise.

Me and Shane can always join up as the famous tag team once again. I might send one off but just got to finish the last lot of coursework that is due in , so is there a specific deadline?

I don't think the Planet is ready for 1400 words of your mad grammar and spelling skillz.

Jesus Christ, Elder. Do something with yourself.

Plus, if you work regularly maybe you'll be able to pay off those pre-orders that are your "only real concern over the next couple months" LMAO

Hey, even I am attempting to do this. It's doing something with my life. Now to figure out how to somehow do a review or article in less then 500 words... Honestly that will be the hardest part for me. When it's a topic I like I will write and write and write... If it's a topic I dislike. I will not write much at all... lol.
