Excellent, excellent review. Did you lock yourself in a room and practice your writing between the time you removed your old reviews and started subbing new stuff?

I don't have to boost my review resume because I have real resume.

I agree. This may be the best review I've read written by you. Nice in depth analysis and good arguments.

Really? I was feeling kind of iffy about this one, but if the public likes it, who am I to say otherwise?

It's more like I adopted a new attitude towards writing about video games. Before that, I constantly wrote and scrapped reviews, and I put lots of pressure on myself to write the "best thing ever" and "cover all the bases". Starting with "Manhattan Project", I decided to throw caution and planning to the wind and just write and submit stuff.

Spaceworlder was able to build this sig IN A CAVE…… WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!

That definitely rings a bell. Stuff like worrying if the next review is better than the last, or thinking it better be--that may be one of my biggest blocks. I find that is the best way to miss something obvious. Just have to accept ups and downs. This review definitely made me want to try the Mega Man games I haven't played--despite being an NES retro fan.
