Very good review. Only found one error or two. Would have like to have known some of Warhol's work that related to this (Yes, I saw the note at the bottom, but it looks a like it was slapped on at the last minute). Overall great, though. 9/10. I may even go try this game!

I think this was a very good review. It described the gameplay well enough, was clearly written, and pointed out the unique aspects of the game the author appreciated.
The only negative thing I can say about this review is that it wasn't quite as interesting to read as others I've seen.
I rate this review a 9 out of 10.

Good grammar, good info, well written. Some trivia and nice screenshots to boot. With some minor wordsmything, this is closer to what I would expect to see in a magazine.

Informative and thorough, which tempts me to give this a high score. However, there was no flavor here! I question where the author's heart is in this piece.
I'll give it a 7, in that it does everything right but interest me.

* Informative, interesting, and succinct, if lacking in passion.
* A few awkward sentences, but nothing a decent editor couldn't fix.
* Mattel didn't "close shop" after the videogame crash, though it did depart the videogame biz.
7/10.

I would have liked to see more information about the gameplay itself. (What happens after you energize) Also a little more info about the graphics would have been nice. The review is also missing why the reviewer likes the game. It just feels rather boring.
7/10

A bit difficult to read due to some paragraphs that go on way to long and the writer jumping from topic to topic in the second really long paragraph. This one needs proof reading. I don't feel I really know why I should play this.
Score: 6

The review was pretty informative. The information was thorough, and spread over the aspects. There's a nice pair of screens. The reading was easy but not engaging as others. Still it does what it's supposed to do, and that's inform us about the game.
8/10

I'll give this fine work an 8/10.
A little history, a little "did you know", and a good summary of the game. Well written and succinct. I would have liked it to be a little bit longer, it seems that after the description of the game I'm not getting enough of the writer's personal opinions of the game's finer points. Even so, there's little to knock on this fine review.
