I am very pleased to announce that Village Gamer has forged a new partnership with Canadian Online Gamers, a BC-based videogame review site run by our very good friends Kirby, Trevor and Shad. Through this new partnership, Village Gamer will be carrying reviews of Canadian-made videogame titles written by Canadian Online Gamers. These articles will be cross-posted on both sites, thereby increasing the amount of exposure given to the games.

Both Kirby and myself see this as a great opportunity for us to assist each other in our common goal of promoting the Canadian videogame development industry, and our first Canadian Online Gamers review will be posted here later today.
