...how things like this make it to a major gaming site.
I thought they screened all their reviews? I remember having to submit like 6 or 7 reviews before I finally got one that they allowed....Sure, now that I look back the review was terrible, but after seeing junk like this posted, mine was Shakespeare.

GOOD GOD.

It's not even a review, Matt! Is it a joke? I'd hate to think that a site like that has this review to represent one of the "greats" in gaming.

Someone appears to be of the opinion that it's...well...simply the best.

I really dug their in-depth analysis of the play mechanics and the helpful strategy hints. LOL

The worst part wasn't the review. The worst part was that it put that horrible, "Simply the best, better than all the rest," Tina Turner song into my head. For that, they die.

You know what really irks me? I remember being like 15 and busting my ass to try and write a decent review for Battle Monsters on the Saturn (it's still there if you can find it). It got posted and I was happy, but at least they had the decency to spell check it and correct some things.....unlike this one. Might as well head over to Gamefaqs and read some review there from now on..... :(

For that, YOU die!

I think they just check to see if the review has actual words then they post it.

And the worst part is, you only need 100 words or so to meet the requirements. He must of posted that a good 500 times! X_x

What an idiot.
