Website Review - Gamevance

Matt Remley
Do you have a love for on-line gaming? If you do, then perhaps you have visited Gamevance.com a few times. If not, then you may enjoy this in-depth review of the websites many features. Out of Gamevance's many features, which is the best, and which games are worthy of playing?

Design-

In terms of design, Gamevance is fairly simple looking and easy to navigate. Around the front page you see lists of the most popular games, and winners of monthly contests Gamevance hosts. All of Gamevance's design is very easy on the eyes, and user friendly- too bad we can't say the same thing about the websites creativity.

Creativity-

Of course there are tons of other websites just like this on the Internet, and almost all of them have paid user programs or ways users can win cash. While the games may be easy, your chances of winning actual cash are slim. You probably have better chances of winning one of the websites many prizes, gift cards, IPod's, PSP's and even digital cameras.

Features-

Needless to say, Gamevance hosts hundreds of on-line games. These games range in genre and difficulty, and some are even tournament games you can play against others. Thankfully for users, there is also a Hall of Fame feature where users can get that well deserved recognition they have always wanted.

Games-

As said above, Gamevance has a good amount of games for users to play and enjoy. Which are the best? Moon Defender was actually very entertaining, the game felt like a retro Atari game. Also, Shooting Stars was pretty entertaining, all you have to do is shoot at balloons to score points.

Sadly, most of the games are very easy to any gamer that has been playing for years. Overall, anyone who is a hardcore gamer will want to stay away from this website, unless they want to try and win prizes. Gamevance is great for kids, or average gamers that just want to play a quick and easy game.

Improvement-

To improve Gamevance, they will want to get a wider variety of games, that hardcore gamers will enjoy. Even Xbox Live has better arcade style games then Gamevance. Also, it would be nice to see more user features, and more prizes for users as well. Each player can win one prize a month, but many would suspect the chances of winning are low.

For these reasons, Gamevance gets a five out of 10, for being fairly decent, but needing improvement.

Final Score- 5 out of 10 (10 Being Perfect - 1 Being Worst)

    I have heard all the horror stories about Gamevance. All I can say is I have not experienced any of the problems other people claim they've had. I have won $1050.00 to date. The prizes are real and people really do win. Gamevance recently experienced some serious financial problems which caused them to reduce their prizes from 20 $200. gift cards per day to 10 $50. gift cards per day. By installing Gamevance you will experience about 4 advertisements per day. They are certified by MacAffee to be virus free. I can't say that the other reviews are not true. All I'm saying is I've never experienced any of those problems and Gamevance has been an excellent way to put a little extra jingle in my pocket. I have no regrets for installing Gamevance.

    Game Vance has been easy money for me. I have very few if any popup and uninstalled the program at one point with ease. Haven't noticed any slowing of my computer and win $200 every 45 days. It took me about a week to practice enough to get the high score. Not sure why people hate on this site so much I'm not extremely computer savvy but I can recognize when my computer is slowing down or getting advertisements. As what ever info it may collect is never going to be of any harm to me. I'm just saying. This is free money! Maybe the haters just dont want any competion.

    Uh oh!

    NEVER, NEVER, NEVER download Gamevance. It installs toolbars even when you don't have them checked. If you want to uninstall, it is an unnecessarily long process. It makes your computer run much slower and destroys smooth transitions from one website to another. It collects information from you computer, also. AVOID THIS SITE!!!
