You seem to dislike a lot of games you review, man!

Eleven out of nineteen of my reviews have three stars or more, so I wouldn't say I dislike most of the games I review. Although only three games (Alter A.I.L.A Genesis, Dungeon Crawl and Backstage) have gotten four stars or more, so it is much more difficult to impress me. I think the reason it looks like I dislike most games is because I gave popular games poor scores, such as Everything Turns Grey and Demon Tower.

Anyway...

I'll change the title to something more PC.

You just referred to Everything Turns Gray, which has been been played by a pathetically measly handful of people, as a "popular game". I just have to ask, are you mentally retarded?

More seriously, and less acerbically, I think everyone's expectations are spoiled by the BS reviews on BS sites/mags like Game Informer where a game that gets a 6.5/10 or something is referred to as being "horrible" and "broken" and "pathetic". Nobody likes to be told their game is mediocre or sub-par, either.

Anyway, I have an EXTREME AND EPICALLY DRASTIC PLAN to adjust people's expectations of reviews and the reality of the review scores themselves. It will go into effect when I am less busy.
It will also include a cattle prod.

Moo?
Actually, can you hold on reviewing Gio Adventures: Eternity War DEMO?

I found a HUGE bug that could affect the review negatively, and I want
the demo you will review to include all of chapter 1 and 2, and mabye
some of chapter 3. I expect it to be done around middle march of this year.
Thanks.

Most people who have played Everything Turns Grey basically orgasmed joy about it. I didn't. When I said popular, I meant that most people who played it liked it to an extreme level.

Can I have these joygasms? They would boost my ego. I have not seen a single one though.

I don't know what numerically constitutes a "popular" game on this site, bro, but I really hope that the scant number of plays I have qualifies. If they do I am very worried about the future of this site.

Stop bitching and pitying yourselves about your lack of popularity in a thread that's about reviewing games. This isn't a popularity contest.

Why does everyone have such an attitude all the time? He called EtG "popular" I disagreed. No one is having either a pity party or a popularity contest. We are having a disagreement.

I think your review of MotW pretty much proves there is something wrong with your standards.

On the other hand, I see your point about my "alleged" popularity.

And all this when you spelt grey wrong in the title of your game!

This is an American English versus King's English thing, I think, although I'm pretty sure both spellings are correct.
As long as you're consistent in the spelling.

And you're pretty stingey with your points, FG!

I like how you based your review of Master of the Wind off of public reaction to your own game. It's almost like you did it out of spite.

Oh, and since two mods have now commented here, why hasn't the review been accepted to the site yet..?

Conspiracy!

Enjoy.

To those who value peace and prosperity for their town and city,

On the night of December the Twenty-Sixth, outside of the City Hall of Tombstone, my daughter Lera Ruder was abducted by outlaws or renegades unknown, for reasons of equal mystery. A ransom note has been sent, asking for $4,000 for her return in Safety. I implore, to anyone who will but lend me the time, that she be Rescued with utmost Haste.
For this service of Heroism, I offer the sum of $1,500 for her safe return and rescue, along with my eternal and undying Gratitute.

-Joseph Ruder, Mayor of Tombstone City
-signed



The year is 1872. Law-enforcement is non-existant in the small trail town of Tombstone, Texas. Bandits, drunkards, crooked gamblers, and killers walk undeterred. Crimes are committed without regard to consequences, because there ARE no consequences.



Enter Mardsen Dustine. With his handful of allies, he is charged with clearing out the filth from Tombstone. Each month of the year 1873, you'll bring in various bounties and wanted men, cuminating each month with a showdown with a particularly dangerous opponent. As you progress and your fame grows, the rewards you reap will grow as well - but so will your notoriety and the danger it entails. Can you survive a year in the West?
