Hahaha. I can't believe you actually reviewed this game. I'd say you were forced into it, but that's just my opinion.
[Eating EmP's brain] probably isn't a good idea. I mean... He's British, which means his brain's wired for PAL and your eyes are NTSC. - Will |

At the risk of aging myself, I've got to say that even my nephew (who knows all the characters) found this game a bit tedious.

I don't think so. Maybe. I'd just gone in with the impression, by reading the title, that it'd be some sort of conglommeration like I described above. So I was thinking you'd talk about that in the review, but when I saw you just talk about the Globs of Doom thing, I figured that was just the game in its entirety and the title is severely misleading.

Haha. Then don't worry about it.

Well it sounded like a criticism, so I was trying to see if I saw what you were finding fault with, but I don't even understand.

Hm... Well, I read the paragraph again and got what you were saying. I think when I read it initially, I was thinking the game would be something else. Like, I was thinking there'd be a Spongebob game where you're just playing as him and doing whatever you're meant to do, but also there'd be a bonus game with it. Kind of like the Mario/Duck Hunt compilation to give a rough example. However, I only ever thought this in the first place because the title of the game seemed ambiguous, especially the word "featuring". I thought that "featuring" meant it would be two separate games - one Spongebob alone and one involving the other Nicktoons. I did not realize at the time of reading that "featuring" meant SpongeBob including the Nicktoons as one single game. Thus I had gone into the review with preconceived notions of what I would find, and after misreading the intro and not finding what I was expecting right away, I became confused only to realize my mistake as I continued reading the review.

I understand now what you're saying. Lewis gets "great review!" while I get criticisms based on comprehension issues you have with titles -- nice. =T Why am I writing for this site again?

=/ That's not it at all... I told you this thing was my fault, and I don't think I really intended it as a criticism at all so much as a means of expressing how silly I am sometimes.

I hear you -- no worries. And sure, I like Lewis's reviews. I even made a feedback topic for a few of them which he ignored, as far as I know.

Alright, cool. I was worried I'd offended you or something. =/

Bloody hell. I felt the urge to scream "ZOMBIES ARE BETTER THAN SPUNGES!" into this thread for no real reason, but having read it, I feel I should probably say some proper things.
