...Fuck, are you serious? Damn man, do you have a family or do they help you review?pimppeter2 said:

Good review once again Pimp. But I could honestly look at the title and know it's shit.
While this almost certainly isn?t the case, it kind of feels like you took the advice of myself and mjhhiv in your Demon?s Souls review and toned down the somewhat haughty writing voice. This review is a much smoother and more approachable read, but it?s lacking polish in some areas. A few line breaks appear to be missing and I picked up on a handful of minor slip-ups throughout, such as, ?I was behind cover and still was getting hit or stuck to a wall without meaning too to. ? Also, it seems as if you reiterated the game?s title fairly often, especially towards the end. While by no means a bad thing, it does strike me as being a tad unnecessary and Is something I feel like bringing up.
The only real thing that needs to be done here is to give the review a thorough once over to hammer out the minor errors and presentation issues. Aside from that, well done.
Shame that Mickey Rourke had to be involved with this. Although no one?s going to care for his voice work in a crappy video game, it?s an unfortunate blemish to what has been quite the comeback between The Wrestler and Iron Man 2.

While I did listen to those comments, and am thankful that you guys took the time to write them. The truth is that is not the reason I toned it down.Maet said:
See my Demons souls [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.158526] Review came after three silly reviews (Oblivion [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.154963], Glenn Beck [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.155721], and America [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.148469] Reviews) So it took me a bit to get back into serious revies like this one and my Uncharted 2 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.159828] Review
This is my first Pimpin' review, and I have to say, I am impressed.
I'll be returning for more Pimpitude, rest assured. Nicely done.
From the moment I saw the protagonist in this game was a Navy SEAL named Dick, I knew two things. It'd have the kind of jingoistic "AMERICA, FUCK YEAH" attitude that Team America World Police taught us to laugh at, and it'd also give people like Glenn Beck massively throbbing erections.
Okay. I apologize for that last bit, because now I need to take a pipe cleaner soaked in kerosene to my brain to scrub out that image.

Could someone tell Dick to cut off that goddamned ponytail?
OT: That was a good review. I have only read this and the Uncharted 2 review and I have to say, I'm pretty impressed.

Because I'm moving them to my personal site with the the correct format attached to them. And its easy to just cut and paste the text straight from edit.DuplicateValue said:
guysmiley bumped it. It had been dead for almost 3 months.
I didn't think anyone else would ever see it again.
Yeah but, why do you have to remove them from here? You could just leave them.Pimppeter2 said:
What is your personal site, out of interest?
I dunno. I just hit edit, copy all, and cut. It easy for me to transfer to a word document. And I'm stopping attaching them to my old reviews so there is really no point of even keeping them on.DuplicateValue said:
My site is http://pimpinreviews.webs.com/. Which I have been neglecting because its a chore to keep updating and don't really have the time. It more to store my reviews than to actually have people look at them.
Oh right. I can't say I understand your logic, but they're your reviews, I guess.Pimppeter2 said:
We should probably stop bumping this now.
Its not logic, its more laziness.DuplicateValue said:Oh right. I can't say I understand your logic, but their your reviews, I guess.Pimppeter2 said:
Also, bumping my old reviews is a bit odd. Seeing as my first review compared to my other ones would make people think that I had gone mad and not been able to make a coherent thought.
I also do it as a kind of courtesy. I don't think its fair to other reviewers if I clog up the forums with all of my reviews by having people bump them all the time. Just like I don't post a new one until the old one hits third page or so.
Kinda like we're doing now. SO go post in [user]New Classics[/user] new review

His deserves attention rather than my old ones.
