Things I hate. by bink 03/24/2005, 3:41pm PST
In-depth reviews that compare a game to other hallmarks of the genre, particularly along the lines of "If you liked {X} game, then you will like {Y} game. Absence of paragraphs and paragraphs ranting about the reviewer's own pet peeves. A brief analysis of how a particular game fits into the development of gaming as a whole. Careful examination of what a particular game brings to the table that is new, or how a particular game re-invents a particular element of a genre. Foresight with which to predict the creation of a new style of game and/or the successful blending of two previously unconnected ones. A studied and careful de-emphasis of overly clever pop culture references in a review I am attempting to glean information from in order to buy something, not to marvel at how many syllables and namedrops were used per sentence.

Anyway if Caltrops does this all the time, boy I'll be outta here!
