Answering some FAQs

1. What is your review system?
I generally start at a 10 for a game and then I'll take off a .5 for every bad aspect. There is some leaway to this. Some games are just so huge that if I counted every bad detail, the game would have a lower score than what it actually deserved. I occasionally look at Metacritic to get an idea of what kind of title a certain game is and what score would be suspected of it. Sometimes I don't agree with Metacritic. I didn't enjoy Mass Effect as much as the bigger reviewers did.
2. Do you swear in your reviews?
I will use spurts of it. There are some words that I am discouraged to say. I'll swear minorly such as: shit, ass, hell, damn, bitch. I won't use any racial or ethnic slurs. I won't drop an F bomb but instead will type as F***. Anything that an actual journalist could get in trouble, is something that I won't do.
3. What games do you normally review?
Unlike paid reviewers I am not required to review bad games and I don't get the games for free. So most of the time I will review well marketed titles that are generally well received. I am curious about some lackluster games and will rent them and then compile my review about them.
