    Umm... Well, the spoilers are there, but they are not, strictly speaking, correct. I won't be discussing anything here, but some of the things you mention are not exactly how you say they are, and anyone who has beaten the game will see what I'm talking about. I don't know if it's because you understood them like that or because you're trying to leave out some things from the reader (which would be silly, considering you are basically spoiling the whole game still), but I just thought it was worth pointing out.

    Was suprisingly well written considering the usual blog reviews seem to be written by people that have never even heard the word grammar.

    I'm not going to read a review with spoilers in it, even though I have already seen the ending. I just don't get what a review is for if you're going to spoil the game. 
     
    By the way I'm just going to throw it out here that I think Deadly Premonition is the best game ever made, but more on that later.

    It's not a review, guys. It's him putting the story of the game into two paragraphs followed up by THIS IS AWESOME.

    TO be fair, this bit is more of a review: 

     

    "Despite the crushingly dull end-of-game bosses, tedious loading times and awkward controls, Deadly Premonition succeeds as a game because the sheer joy it's programmers put into it shines through. Even though the Twin Peaks inspired story is bizarre, it stays just the right side of nonsensical, always working within the game's own logic. This isn't just a collection of self consciously weird set-pieces - it does actually make sense (sort of). And by the time it's all over, you'll be so acclimatized to Deadly Premonition's world, you'll find yourself craving for obscure jazz and psychic coffee."

    Are you saying a random guy who posted his opinion on the internet did not construct it in a helpful way but presented it in such a manner that garnishes him attention?

    What could possibly give you the idea there would be one?
     
    It's not like every game has to have a sequel, you know.
