Alright, we had enough entries this month that it's time for the voting round. You can vote for the one qualifying review that you liked most this month, and you're not allowed to vote for your own review. Consider explaining why you voted the way you did, to give the writers some handy feedback!

At the end of around two weeks (actual deadline to be determined by level of activity), I will close the topic and the person in the lead wins. In the event of a tie, I am the tiebreaker (so don't expect me to vote otherwise).

Here's a list of this month's eligible reviews:

Astyanax (NES) by JoeTheDestroyer

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift EXTEND (PS3) by disco
http://www.honestgamers.com/reviews/10047.html

Seriously? No one else is going to vote? I'll vote for Suskie's FFXIII-2.

I'll give my vote to Joe's, just felt like a really down to earth piece that's clearly written with the consumer in mind.

Suskie's review.

Edit: Oh yeah, forgot to post a reason. I liked Suskie's review because it was very convincing in its disappointment of XIII-2. The review was filled with energy and detailed, but not confusing, descriptions of the game's world, plot, and gameplay. Didn't hurt that he had played the game for an absurd length and has experience with the first game, giving it that extra ounce of credibility.

It was a tough choice between the two XIII-2 reviews, because holdthephone's piece was also very descriptive and good throughout.
I heard spaceshit noises.

A winner is Suskie! Get in touch by HG Mail with the email address where you would prefer the certificate to be sent and I'll get it out to you sometime in the next few weeks.
