We need a game review reviewing system like Old Man Murray's start-time-to-first-crate system. Words-to-first-slam-of-Madden comes to mind.

She doesn't mention anything about interaction in the entire piece. Apparently games are art entirely because of the marriage of visual design and plot! What a fantastic medium!

so have we established definitively yet that everything the escapist prints is recycled from our magazine?

(except the stuff that's written by tgq staff, of course.)

Well, if she recycled it from me, she certainly missed my point.

The hilarious bit here is that I don't think Madden has realstic sweat.

Oh, those sports games are all the same.

You should probably email him and let him know that you wrote that article but better quite a while back ;)

According to this, Shadow of the Colossus is probably the best game ever.
