i take extreme pride in my reviews, not only do i play and own every game i review, but i honestly tell you how much i play the game, for my last review i reviewed command and conquer 3 and i siad, i didn't play this game too much and i siad why and i also mentioned that many of my compaints are left out since i didn't want to speak in ignorance about a game i only speant 60 dollars and 20 hours on.
there isn't anything special about my game reviews except how horrible 95 percent of user reviews are. "i played the demo and..." or "i watched my friend play one time at his place for thirty minutes" they just need to make a forum post or comment board on the bottum of every review like they do for previews so idiots who don't own a game don't review it.
thanks to all my friends who right good well balanced reviews. oh and who saw ign's greatest games of all time list, i can't believe they put in puzzle games like pacman and tetris, both great games but devoid of level design and such i feel like they don't count the requirements on a puzzle game aren't half of a real game. pong is about the only exception it's the first sports game and isn't on there and in general i felt that games like doom half life, mario 64, mario 3 and super mario world were to far back on the list. also i didn't agree with orcana of time being ahead of mario 64.metroid prime should have been further up there too. not to mention grim fandango was like the only adventure game. and metal gear solid 2 got on the list but three didn't, three was way better. sometimes i feel like a frachise like MGS or Mario needs to be condensed into a franchise since there are so many entries. also GTA 3 made the list, um did any one play GTA1 or 2, cause 3 was just those games in 3D.
