1. The "genre" listed in the individual reviews is the work of fucking idiots who think they are more clever than they truly are. Land of Legends is in the "Turn-Based Elf Strategy, LOL" genre. Total Overdose is in the "Accion Magnifica del Automovil del Hurto" strategy. Ha ha ha, "Hurto" is Spanish for hurt!! This is very stupid and I would love a five minute conversation with whoever thought this was a good idea. I can't stand game websites and this godawful magazine is one of the only places I hear of new games.

2. They will put the name of their review in 24 point type and then fail to put the name of the game at the beginning of the review. Apparently crafted by a number of guys who can't believe they haven't been asked to design games yet, they no doubt feel that their titles are better. This is great, but I can't avoid "Gun" at retail when it looks like it is called "World of Outlaws" in this month's issue. OK, I guess I can, but I just hate their presumption. Review writers would and do make terrible games.

3. Four Word Reviews -- this feature is worthless. The four word review for "Star Wars Galaxies: Rage of the Wookiees" is... "let the wookiee win." What? Are you recommending this, you faggots, or not?

4. I feel that too many pages were given to MMORPGs, which is a holding ground for sociopaths and lovers of the tedious, but apparently I'm in the minority on this one. If the dumb fuckers that give $20 a month to play experiments in Pavlov mechanics love them so much that they make up a bloc of interested readers, who am I to judge? But there has never been an interesting MMORPG.
