Just recently I received an inbox notification from GS stating that I've earned a top user reviewer emblem. I checked my profile, and sure enough, there it was:
Power and influence.
Those who rank amongst this hallowed 100 greatly benefit those searching for critical information about games. These individuals' thoughtful, analytical reviews tend to be much more detailed and sophisticated than most of the so-called professional game reviews you could find elsewhere. Sure enough, the top 100 tend to be prolific writers and avid game players.
I seriously couldn't believe it. Thought it was a hoax. There are so many others who I feel deserve this more than I do, but I guess that one or two of my reviews stood out to the admins or something. I dunno. There's only 17 of them, and my first few are pretty amateur, so I'm just clueless as to how I managed to qualify for the Top 100. It's both unexplainable and awesome. Cheers, GameSpot. :P
Thanks so much to all of you who've read and recommended my reviews over the years! You guys rock! :) Without those recommendations, I would never have made it. Now with this newfound motivation, there are sure to be more reviews coming up, so I hope that you all can stop by and check 'em out when they're posted! :D
Thanks again and God bless,
