In the AA database some of the links to the video game critic website don't work correct.

They just go to the main page on that site not to the review.

A few of the 2600 ones that i tried that need fixed are -

 

Mario Bros.

Gran Prix

Ghostbusters

Ms Pac Man

Hi - This is the Video Game Critic. Thanks for pointing out these broken links!

The breakage was caused by me reindexing my reviews, but I fixed the problem by creating several redirect pages.

All my review links on this site should work now. Let me know if you find an exception.

The only exception I know of is Grand Prix, which is mistyped as "Gran Prix" in the link. Hopefully one of the Atari Age admins can fix that.

Thanks

Dave

I'm having this issue, too.  However, I found a work-around to this problem and I thought I'd share in case anyone else finds this to be helpful.  To find a working link to a particular review at VideoGameCritic.com, find a review of a similar game and a good link to the one you want may be suggested beneath it.  

 

Ex. The link for Midnight Magic for Atari 2600 doesn't work (it just takes you to the top of the page).  So, go to the review for Bumper Bash (a similar type of game), instead, and at the bottom it will say, "If you like this game, try Midnight Magic" and there's your good link.

the database has a lotta potholes that need to be filled sometime, shame honestly. I understand tho.
