ZanarkandTidus's Emblems

  • +1 Orator of Distinction

    Because while everybody's got an opinion, some are better than others. This illustrious soul has volunteered to grace GameSpot's pages with an unforgettable editorial. It's the very definition of selflessness. Or, in some cases, self-indulgence.

  • Top 500 Community Reviewers

    Some opinions are better than others. It's probably well worth listening to the individuals bearing this emblem, at least when it comes to getting good advice about which games to play and which games not to play. But when it comes to topics like cooking, religion, politics, stuff like that, you're still probably better off arguing with your parents or just keep all your feelings all bottled up inside.
