CGQuarterly #5 Posted August 26, 2009 That is why I NEVER use emulators when reviewing a game. That article was a waste of the author's time. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VectorGamer #8 Posted August 26, 2009 That is why I NEVER use emulators when reviewing a game. That article was a waste of the author's time. Chris Well, the author basically killed credibility in the first paragraph by basically stating they had never even seen a ColecoVision, but "hey, I'll just use an emulator..." Sorry, but that's not how they were meant to be played...and then reviewed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MagitekAngel #10 Posted August 26, 2009 There's a series floating around Youtube that tops this stalwart gentleman in levels of fail. I believe it's called "Gaming in the Clinton Years." I'm not providing a link because if you really want an earful of this guy's blasphemy, I shall have no part in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not providing a link because if you really want an earful of this guy's blasphemy, I shall have no part in it. That guy makes my reviews look good. He actually said that Twisted Metal looks like a racing game and that it's confusing. Edited August 26, 2009 by STICH666 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mezrabad #13 Posted August 27, 2009 Wow. Just, Wow. Plus he used the phrase "a tad choppy". Isn't usage of the word "tad" banned from the internet unless it's being used ironically? I swear there was a resolution passed at the U.N. on this but I can't find the link... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CGQuarterly #18 Posted August 28, 2009 The guy who wrote that is a member here, and just recently started a thread in the publications forum pimping his site. I'm surprised that he hasn't made an appearance in this thread yet. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
