October Blues
October 23, 2006

I've been out of the reviewing scene for two weeks. Two WEEKS! Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but I like at least doing one review a week to keep my skills sharp. But between school, work, visiting relatives, computer problems, lack of motivation and other stuff, I haven't reviewed anything at all.

That changed yesterday, though. There's a whopping 2006-word piece on Shadow of the Colossus on Gamefaqs right now, and it should to be posted here soon enough. It's my biggest yet, but both the subject matter and the minimum word count requirements kinda called for it. I might even use it for Round 3 of The Great War Tourney, but there are dozens of other reviews to choose from...*Starts contemplating*

And GRRR @ the first round scoring. I'm not complaining about my score at all; coming in third place is definitely something to be happy about. What I'm more worried about are the reviewers on Team Gamefaqs that have gone AWOL. If everyone had shown up, we could have ripped Team Gamespot to shreds and given HG a much better run for their money. With this round, some of my comrades are nowhere to be found. This doesn't bode well at all...=/

But enough lamenting. I've got to think positive, dammit! It's my birthday in two days! Isn't that great, guys?!

Guys?!

*Crickets chirp*

Okay, fine. Screw being happy-go-lucky. Here's a list of games that I asked for:*

Valkerie Profile 2
Xenosaga Episode III
God Hand
The King of Fighters 2006
Odama
Contact

*So I have weird taste in games. Sue me.

Hopefully I'll get at least one of these amidst the books and movies and everything else I demanded. >.>

Have a good week, folks.

The last review I actually wanted to write was in July. I forced a review for the alphabetolympics in August, which is my most recent.

Sacrilege! No, that's okay. Team GameSpot would like to battle Team GameFAQs in a fight, fair and square. That would only be honorable.
