" I think I'd just dislike New Game+ because the game would be a little too easy. "

I really don't understand how people keep running out of ammo.  Are they just spraying randomly, even on extended fire fights on insanity I never hit the situation where all my guns are empty.  Usually I'll empty out 1 gun type, maybe 2 at most.  After the fight I'll be back to full.

" The charge ability is pretty dumb, it brings you to the middle of the action so you can get shot up, and its not even that effective. "

Mass Effect 2 is very strong on the Role Playing elements.  It had a lot of choices and the options are much better in this game than previous Bioware games, the characters feel much deeper, and the environments/story are solid.  What ME2 drops is the stat/spreadsheet based gameplay that people have come to associate with RPGs.  Everything has been extremely streamlined.  Its replaced the weak stat based gameplay with superior 3rd person shooter mechanics.

Witch Hearts are a really good buy, especially early.  The higher HP helps you get through levels with no items, which nets you an extra 5k points at the end. 
 
Technique wise, I found Breakdance and Stiletto are the two most useful.  Once you can buy them, all the shape change forms are very useful. 
 
Remember, do not be afraid to use yellow and red lollipops.  You should pick up enough bits to mix your own mega reds and mega yellows.  If you use these at key moments that you find hard they can save you points in the end and save you money on green lollipops.

Why not ask all those people who bought Hellgate : London (Bill Roper even works for these guys!) lifetime subscriptions how it worked out for them?  LIfetime subscriptions aren't something you offer if you expect to make an MMO that keeps people playing.  Champions Online got boring after 2 weeks.  Cryptic hasn't been making good games lately.  $300 just seems like a poor deal, the only people it would make sense for is hardcore Star Trek fans.  Even then you could go buy the complete series of both the original Star Trek and The Next Generation on DVD for about that much.  The only game in the MMO genre a lifetime subscription would make sense for is WoW and they never offered one.  Most other MMOs are desolate within a year.

If you have a really hard time vs Gracious and Glorious just drop a mega yellow lollipop.  It should last you long enough to kill them both.  You can probably make 3-4 of them from your collected items (if you haven't already.)

" You know what's even better than less obnoxious? Not at all. Darksiders didn't feel the need to include QTEs, you don't see anyone bemoaning their lack on inclusion. "

I'm perfectly fine with QTEs as long as the aren't the "press X to not die" variety.  Those seemed to be mostly at the start of the game and the QTEs in general got better as the game went on. 
 
Granted the press X to not die ones shouldn't have been in the game at all and were rather annoying where they existed.  All in all, I felt Bayonetta had one of the less obnoxious QTE implementations.

Like people said, he's only one man.  Plus saw is on its sixth iteration by now.  What will his review do for people?  You already know if you want to go see saw or now.  You've seen the previous five, you know what you are going to get, you already know if you will like it or not.
