zh666 reviewed Castle Crashers1 month, 1 week ago
Castle Crashers is a fun beat'em up with nice humor.: I was a big Alien Homnid fan back in the Gamecube days. So when I heard about Castle Crashers, I was pretty excited. I originally played this game last with in a local multiplayer setting. It's almost a different experience when you're playing with someone else. You're not concerned about secrets or items or money.. it's just a stupid button masher. So I was curious what it would be like ... -
zh666 reviewed Final Fantasy IV: The After Years1 month, 1 week ago
The After Years is a fun nostalgia trip but with alot of problems: Final Fantasy II for the SNES is probably my favorite RPG experience as a kid. It was the first RPG I played with such a massive storyline, full of plot twists, and rememberable characters. So with that bit of history, it's probably my favorite RPG of all time. Final Fantasy IV: The After Years is a fun novelty, but it hardly holds a candle to the original game. I mean, ...

Dark Messiah was an ugly and broken mess of a game.: There really isn't much to say about Dark Messiah, so I'll keep this short. The game is ugly, the controls are clunky, the story was boring and the game was buggy. It's not worth your time or your money. I regret putting 12 hours into this game. The end. ----------Battle System---------- Dark Messiah is a standard first person hack and slasher. It's similar to King's Field or Hexen or Elder's ... -

zh666 reviewed Mass Effect2 months, 3 weeks ago
Mass Effect was a fun experience, bogged down by buggy graphics.: Ok, I need to get this off my chest. I was not a fan of Kotor at all. I didn't care for the sci-fi / Star Wars universe. I didn't like the combat. I felt the quest system was to hard to navigate through, and finally, I hated how big and pointless the world was. The first town you visit is bigger than some games, but it was full of ...

zh666 reviewed Zoids Assault3 months ago
Zoids Assault was difficult, ugly and a waste of time.: I think I started Zoids Assault about 9 or 10 months ago. I looked up a guide to see how long of a game it was, and it seemed short, so I was expecting to blast through it and forget about it after a few weeks. I was not prepared for what was about to come. Zoids Assault is one of the hardest Turn-Based Strategy RPG's I have ever played ...

Fable II was a huge improvement over the original but had faults.: Overall, I enjoyed Fable II more so than the original. Most of the bugs were kinked out, the controls were fixed, the quests were better, etc. I just had more fun with this game. The map, while not great, was still improved. The dog was an "ok" addition. Could they have made this better? Obviously, but I think it was a fun experience.A few things that really annoyed me though ...

zh666 reviewed Beowulf: The Game3 months, 4 weeks ago
Beowulf is a bland and somewhat forgettable beat'em up.: As I will mention many times in this review, I haven't seen the Beowulf movie and I have no interest in seeing it. I know a little bit about the Beowulf history but that's about it. With that said, the storyline still made no sense to me at all. The battle system was bland. The platforming was awful. The QTE's they make you do is just annoying. I especially hated ...

zh666 reviewed Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom4 months, 1 week ago
Circle of Doom was a generic, boring and ugly mess. : This is my first Kingdom Under Fire game. I have the 2 Xbox releases just sitting on my shelve, waiting to be played, but I felt like playing this one first. From my understanding, the very first Kingdom Under Fire game was a straight up RTS. The 2 Xbox games were closer to Dynasty Warrior type Hack and Slasher / war games. Circle of Doom is actually closer to Phantasy ...

zh666 reviewed My Sims Kingdom4 months, 2 weeks ago
My Sims Kingdoms was charming and quirky, but sadly repetitive.: I am not a fan of the Sims games for the PC at all. I just didn't get it, and I don't think I ever will. There was just to much micromanaging involved and I always felt rushed and overwhelmed. In My Sims Kingdoms, you control the pace of the game. If you want to blast through the main quest, you can probably do it in 12 hours, without feeling ...

zh666 reviewed Tales of Vesperia4 months, 3 weeks ago
Vesperia won't disappoint longtime fans of the series. : As a huge fan of Tales of games, Vesperia hardly disappoints. It nails nearly everything I love about Tales games. Colorful graphics, likable characters, fun dialog, and fast combat. My only complaint are the weak dungeons, and skill micromanaging. The dungeons felt really short and linear. Micromanaging your skills was to tiresome, because you gain new skills way to quick, and you have to do it across 7 characters. If ...

zh666 reviewed The Last Remnant5 months, 1 week ago
Last Remnant's battle system bored me, but I did enjoy sidequests: Last Remnant is a game I hard no expectations for, and little knowledge about. I honestly thought this game was a hack and slasher like Dynasty Warriors. When I jumped into the first battle, it felt closer to Lost Odyssey. Another thing I vaguely remember about this game during the pre-launch hype was how it was suppose to appease Western audiences by adding more Western designs to it. I don't ...

zh666 reviewed Mystic Heroes6 months ago
Mystic Heroes is a repetitive hack and slasher not worth picking : Mystic Heroes was not a fun game, well I did have fun with it for the first couple stages, but after that it just got so boring and repetitive. By stage 3 I was dreading the whole game. Fighting some bosses was a long and painful process, rarely hard, but just annoying. The platforming elements was frustrating and just about everything else annoyed me about this game. The only positive ...
I really enjoy the Achievement part of the site. I put together this image to show off the average score and my score a little better. My score is in Red and the Average Community score is in Pink. So far, out of all the games I've started and basically finished, I out performed the average score. Some games I just haven't even started on, like Mass Effect, Operation Darkness and Totem Ball, so they're obviously down. Games like Zoids Assault, Beowulf and Dark Messiah are games I started but quit after a few minutes. I will probably go back to those games. I'm currently working on Megaman 9 and still haven't gotten an achievement yet. The other games I'm down on are just a bunch of XBLA games I probably won't play.

Ha, I just saw this news article. I thought it was pretty interesting and kinda funny too. Within the news story, there's a link to various graphs. One of them was about my reviews, in a way: "One user is a complete outlier in that they have written almost 40% more reviews then anyone else." Yeah, that's obviously me.
I've been writing these reviews since June of 2006. Some games I completed before then and gave retroacitive reviews (like Tales of Symphonia and Paper Mario 2, which are terribly written reviews, I admit). So I didn't write 140 reviews since this site came up. I've been doing this forever, so that's why I have a buttload of reviews up. I mostly write them just to motivate myself to finish games. I had a really hard time finishing games before I started writing reader reviews. Now I'm finishing nearly all games I play. I'm not inspiring to be a video game reviewer or writer of any kind, this is all personal gain for me.
Since I joined Giantbomb, I've posted only 38 fresh reviews. Dark Savior was the first review I posted here, technically. I also use an image from Dark Savior as my avatar, just incase you was ever wondering what that masked dude is from.
This is my favorite graph in the bunch:
This one shows the diversity of review scores made by the top reviewers on this site (in terms of quantity). 5's equal Red and 0's equal Blue. It seems like to me that only a few people are willing to review bad games, myself included in that one. The guy next to me only gives good reviews.
Anyways, if you read or write reader reviews, the article and the link inside of it are both worth checking out.
