Great, powerful, review, OD. It's hard to go wrong with good material, but it takes a masterful writer to truly bring that material to life on the page. Only available for PC???

Lewis, Zipp. Not OD. Lewis is a third of the age and a forth of the height.

Good stuffs, regardless.
For us. For them. For you.

Been wanting to play this game for some time, but the high cost for such a short game deters me. I will eventually, I suppose.

Aren't they both British, though? That should count for something.

Really, this is such a Lewis review, I can't believe I said OD.

OD's very much American.
[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

Overdrive is American? My whole world just turned sideways.

Thanks for reading, you lovelies.

PC-only, yeah. But it'll run on extremely modest machines. Heck, I'm pretty sure it would run on my netbook.

As for the price, well, it's under £10. So £2 an hour of entertainment, if you want to judge it like that. You can pay £50 for a bland singleplayer shooter that lasts ten hours. £10 for five hours of magic seems perfectly decent to me.

Great, powerful, review, OD.

There, was, probably, a, character, in, Chrono, Cross, who, talked, like, this.

Someone who used too many commas and called people by the wrong name?
I can avoid death by not having a life.
Jonathan Stark Mar 2, 2012 edited
Hey, my commas were placed absolutely correctly according to the Chicago Manual of Style. Which is almost as ponderous as Chrono Cross' plot. And, Lewis, it's not about how old it is, but how you use it.

Speaking of which, I'm pretty sure OD hasn't seen any of these comments because he's just looking at the forum going "pfft... a bunch of people commenting on Lewis' review."

Notice who praised the wrong critic in both cases. Zipp is just trying to spread the love. Nothing wrong with that!

Oh, as for actual comments on the review, however vague: I was glad to be able to post this review. I'd been wondering about the game, and Lewis was a perfect choice to cover it (as you can see from the text). To the Moon is, as you might say, in his wheelhouse.

Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world

It will never happen, Suskie. Probably.

I just noticed these comments and like them. Any time I'm praised, even if for the work of other people that I had nothing to do with, I am happy.

Finally got around to playing and finishing this. I'm not ashamed to say I cried.

I still think about this game, even though the only thing I have to inform me is OD-- er, Lewis' review.
