Default Article about game reviews at Adventure Developers

It is okay for the reviewer to exist.

It makes little sense to judge the value of Billy's cat without taking little Billy into consideration. That's all I'm saying.
I think that's so true. All the time in many forums I hear of some strange objectivity factor people want in their reviews, and I can't really see why...

Read the rest of the article at Adventure Developers: Review Manifesto.

Deadworm - that was a good article you linked to - Thanks - I'm going to post it to a couple of other sites. Many players are very critical of reviewers, especially about spoilers - and he made a good point about that too.

A couple of things about that article annoyed me, but I'll post my thoughts tomorrow when I'm a little less tired.
