I got lucky, sort of.  I got the regular fight stick like 4 months later from newegg.  When i saw it there i ordered immediately.

I love newegg i order lots of stuff from there.  Amazon is awesome too since I can get damn near anything im looking for there.

I love the quick looks to get a good first impression of a game.  Seeing it is far better then just reading a hands on article.

I have no problem with Digital Distrobution but i prefer to have the box.  I am one of those people who like looking at a shelf full of games and memories.  With the size of games far outpacing the speed of internet DL's right now too Digital kinda sucks.  Itll take up bandwidth for hours at a time and heaven forbid you are wtih some ISP with a very low bandwidth cap.  Once internet speeds make DL a full large game quick and caps arent an issue ill go down to best buy or order a copy online.

I was just thinking and i really like the Area5 format where they sit down and have a conversation about the game what they lked and didnt.  Similar to many podcasts, what have you been playing but in video form.

I went to Best Buy today.  It was buy 2 DS games get one free.  Not a bad surprise since i didnt know about it ahead of time.

There are three factors that determine whether or not I will read the full review of a game.   First off it has to be a game that I am seriously considering buying.  If its a maybe I will buy it type game I will read the end and check the score then if that peaks my interest I go back and read the whole review.   Secondly is if there is a video review or not.  I am legally blind so reading can suck at times.  Depending on the quality and content of the video review I may or may not go and read the whole review.  Alot of the time the video review is good enough many times it is not enough to sway my decision.  The third and last factor in my decision to read an entire review or not comes down to who is reviewing that particular game.  Like most of us on the internet for games I am interested in I will read or at least attempt to read multiple reviews.  I always check who reviewed the game before i read or watch the review.  I have definately found people whom i prefer to read or watch their reviews.  If a review is by someone who i generally don't like their reviews i will go find one of the other reviews and hope someone whom I enjoy their work has done one. 

So, do you read the whole review and why or why not?
