Jeff Gerstmann (Senior Editor) was fired from GameSpot, or so the news is reporting, because of his tone during a certain video review. It may have been because of the 6.0 he gave Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. They were advertising this game heavily on the site, and I guess Eidos got upset with the review. Once the word got out, users started giving this game a 1.0 review. They are no longer accepting reviews for this game after 829 player reviews. I can still rate it with the slider. 1.0! I will never play it.

I may not use GameSpot anymore after this.

I saw a sneak preview of SiCKO tonight with my grandma, although I had asked others to go, and nobody was available. I'm glad I got to see it with her, spending some quality time. I think we'll get together again soon to watch more documentaries, which I enjoy doing. I always wanted to spend more time with family and my grandparents.

This movie is the greatest and most important film I've seen. I could feel the emotion building inside, getting coked up at parts, laughing at others. But by the end, I broke down into tears, and had to shield my eyes from the screen for a short time. I was so moved that I had a hard time even talking afterward without breaking down.

The crowed applauded, and there was much to think about. Everyone in the USA needs to see this movie, now. In the mean time, I'm still as dedicated as ever to becoming a Canadian citizen, if not more so. Maybe we can turn this country around, but I just can't wait around until that happens. I need to do the right thing in my life.

Love & Peace!

Read my Excite Truck Review on GameSpot, or here, for they are the same! Although I got this game a while ago, I wanted to give people some time between my reviews. It's short, so enjoy!

My first review had to be Big Rigs today!
I've never laughed so hard about any game, ever.

Watching the review or describing it to your friends is enough to make you roll on the floor. Playing it is only half of the fun! Showing it off to your friends is a riot.

Gameplay: Bad, since you always win, and the controls are sluggish. The levels are not inspired, and there's no physics or hit detection, but that's part of the fun. There's just not enough variety.

Graphics: Nice, but they are unfinished. You'll see lots of errors, but they aren't major. It seems like most of the time spent on this game was making the game look good, rather than functional.

Sound: Silence, although it does have one of the most amazing background music tracks I've ever heard. The sound seems like it didn't get finished, or even started!

Value: Cheap (if you can find it) and one disk can go a long way among friends. You won't play it for hours, so let your friends have a turn. Just skip a meal and buy it!

Tilt: After over a year, this game still wows me. There are only a handful of games that you absolutely must show to your friends, and this is one of those games!
