That was a really good review and critique of modern video games

Its like someone at the Saints Row company paid attention to what made the game fun and built the game around those ideas instead of what someone else THOUGHT would be a good idea

Excellent use of the word "Shoggoth". Rip off of "Event Horizon"??! Ouch

That corpses getting up thing reminds me of "Rise of the Triad", except in Rise of the Triad it was done well

I beg to differ

Although it lacked the vitriol of Uncharted: Drakes Fortune review he definitely placed the blame for the games lacklusteryness(tm) squarely at the feet of EA designers. He also attacks the lack of empathy with the protaganist which, in an FPS world containing such brilliances as Half Life 2 and COD:4, tends to be a very very bad thing

Sure saying something is 'bland' might not sound very angry, but it certainly isnt too inspiring either. Especially if you're going to fork out money for a game

Its an ok game, just try get the newer release because the older ones got some pretty crappy translations. Something funny about the main characters constantly calling the female characters bitches and such.

Related to *juice*. The Orz like *sauce*, which they seem to acquire through killing: "After the *dancing*, Orz think you will make good *special sauce*. Maybe even for other Orz *party*." It would seem this is likely to be something sinister. The Orz apparently wish those who take part in *parties* to enjoy the *sauce*, as in the above quote, or in their parting words from random encounters: "Do not forget to *enjoy the sauce*."

I loved the Witcher, brilliant game (ended up selling over 1 million copies which is pretty damn awesome for the first game developed by a random Polish developer no one had heard of just for the PC). I didn't have too many bugs with the original but the enhanced edition made it a lot better.
