It was ok. I was informed about the game, but a bit (Characters) were spoiled a little. As far as the grammar, punctuation, and spelling go, blech. Many missing periods and random words were capitalized. But the entire review did rhyme! I give it a 6/10. Nice try, but a some flaws hold it from being the best.

I second Querjek on the grammar and typos; these are a turn-off while I am reading. Also, as someone who's never played any game in the Suikoden series, I was left wondering what type of game this is exactly: is it an RPG, an action game, a beat-'em-up or what?

Score: 6/10

I have to agree with those above - I had a tough time reading and comprehending the review due to the poor grammar. I honestly was so distracted I didn't even realize the review rhymed the first tiem I read it.

I've also never played anything in the Suikoden series and don't really know too much about the game mechanics, but it seemed to me the game is probably an RPG.

To the review's credit, it did convey the relevant points that the sound/music is good, the graphics are good, and the gameplay is boring.

I was also thinking 6/10, but as the previous 2 posters gave it a 6, and I did find the positive aspects noted above, I'll give it a 7.

5.

Had it not rhymed, 3. Too much effort on rhyming, not enough details about the game.

This...just...no. I appreciate going for a different approach, but I was so turned off by the atrocious grammar and the forced rhymes that I only got halfway through.

I give it a 4, assuming I can rate a review without finishing it. But with 65 other competitors, you failed to grab my attention in the least.

I'm going to have to agree with this. Where is the grammatical structure? Sentence fragments are bad enough, but where are the periods? This is very detrimental to a review.

Although it was somewhat informative, I fail to grasp anything.

I got: Its hard, good character design (I think), and good music.

What were your ratings for the game?

4/10

I get the feeling that this one was supposed to be formatted like a poem. When set up as a standard review, it's almost impossible to follow.

Then again, it's not really good or amusing poetry, either. I'll give it points for originally, but not much else. A 4 out of 10.

That could very well be.

I just noticed the format of my review dramtically changed (minor things omitted, styles can't be the way I intended etc etc) and thus it is much hard to follow.

Regradless, I still couldn't find much helpful information in this review

It seems like it should be divided into a poem format, agreed. As a poem, the grammatical errors would make more sense. The points of the game are covered, however vaguely though. 5/10

4 of 10

Sounded like he never even played the game at all and compared it to Scooby Doo.

This one is getting "cut". Low review scores from our judges and forum. Sorry! Thanks for playing though... there are lots more contests coming up :)
