Hi,
I've recently noticed a lack of reviews for Gaming books. By gaming books, i mean a book which has been either written about or set in a gaming world. (eg, Halo: The fall of reach is set in the halo universe)

Because of this, ive taken it upon myself to begin reviewing these books. Thing is, ive never actually reviewed anything before, so i was hoping some of you might be able to give me some feedback (yes, im asking for criticism of my own criticism).

The first one is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcZH0KfXpXw

If you could spare a few minutes to watch it and give me some feedback, i would really appreciate it :)

Thank you,
Kratenser

EDIT: Im sorry this wasn't supposed to be interpreted as self advertising. Im sorry if you see it that way, if its gonna cause any trouble then i'll just remove the post. Sorry

Okay, since this was done in such a nice way, I won't refer to it as self-advertisement.

I am uncertain on whether or not this counts as advertising, while the review may be your own, it is content not on this site so it's a bit of a grey area.

I am not a Mod or anything, just giving a warning that they may disapprove.

Nice use of images, but I think you should speak clearer and have better structure in your review. Also I'd suggest using many more tags in your video. Like maybe the name of the book as opposed to just the tag "warcraft". And the first tag takes priority so at this point I would avoid using your username.

sorry about the tag thing lol, never actually uploaded a video to youtube before.
I was a bit nervous as well, so i think thats what might have effected my voice, either that or my microphone lol.

As for structure... /facepalm.
Didn't think of anything like that, it was more a random speech slur.

This is pretty interesting especially for me since I'm not too familiar with gaming books. I say you've started of nicely.

I would like to suggest you refine your logo a bit. Establishing a solid visual identity is important. Your logo is a good start. Also, I agree with Palademon when he said you should speak clearer. Avoid longer pauses in between speech. Since it's basically an audio review in a sense that it's not actually you in the video, having these pauses can get a bit weird.

One more thing, the music is quite nice as well.

Oh and, don't give up.
