I have to say I loved this review, and your skills are definitely improving. You did a great job on this one all around and I loved the feel of it. You made reference to pac-man but didn't harp on it for too long, and rather explained why this may be a better choice.

true - Thanks for pointing that out. That's the nice thing about others giving feedback - It's so hard to find your own mistakes.

Hey, this is great. As you know, my normal inclination with a really retro-review like this is to get bored because it has no relevance to me, but you come on strong with the Pac Man angle and by the end of the first paragraph I'm interested enough to know where you're going with that to keep reading.

Though I think, yes, you've established yourself at being able to write interesting reviews, I have to respectfully disagree with True...this review reads easily, is coherent, and has some funny moments. But they are at the expense of telling us about the game.

aschultz - Thanks for taking time to leave detailed feedback. I have to agree that the review's weakness is lack of in-depth information. Also, perhaps it does sound like it is lashing out at times.
