    G'day guys!

    I've slowly been compiling a big list of sites that we need to contact before our game is released. But what I'm lacking is a list of sites that are non English. Such as various popular app and game review sites from Europe and Asia?

    So far googling isn't very helpful as that only brings up English sites.

    Still need more sites :D

    Europe:
    www.gamereactor.dk (also has other various European sites/magazines)

    http://www.applicationiphone.com (France)
    http://www.jeuxvideo.com (France)
    http://www.macworld.fr/ (France)
    http://oracom.fr/mobiles_magazine.html (France)
    http://www.pocketgamer.fr (France)

    http://appsundco.de/ (Germany)
    http://ireviewt.com/ (Germany)
    http://macup.com/ (Germany)
    http://www.macwelt.de/ (Germany)

    http://www.iphonehellas.gr (Greece)

    http://www.macworld.pl/ (Poland)

    http://www.idg.es/macworld (Spain)

    http://www.macworld.idg.se/ (Sweden)


    Asia:
    http://www.ipodart.net/ (South Korea)
    http://www.pig-min.com/ (South Korea)

    http://iapp.com.tw/ (Taiwan)

    http://iphone.duowan.com (China)
    http://ipad.duowan.com (China)
    http://www.iapps.im (China [Free apps only])

    http://www.appbank.net/ (Japan)
    http://www.appsjp.com (Japan)
    http://www.iphonemag.jp/ (Japan)
    http://web.meet-i.com/ (Japan)

  11. It's probably worth sticking to non English site, as the English sites appear easily when searching for app/game sites through google and such :)

    this is all very helpful, please don't shy away from posting non-iOS mobile-centric sites if you know of them :)

    apps.jp is about all you need for Japan - they're humungous there.

    We got a minor feature from them a while back and our sales shot up for some time, despite sales from all the oriental countries being usually no more than 5% of our total.

    www.Gamereactor.dk

    We do have a great ipad-magazine and also a browser app with all our sites .dk .no. fi. .de .it .es. and .eu together

    I am the editor in chief of gamereactor.dk

    We do reviews/previews of ios games if they are interesting to us - our main focus is consoles and pc/mac though. ;)

    You really must include this list.

    They're not all iOS sites - in fact a lot of them only cover it as a side issue and some not at all, so you need to be selective. The important bit though is that these sites are where metatcritic compile their own global scores from.
