Nice 'review' for those of us who are particularly stupid eight year olds, or for those who care that the reviewer's internet connection sucks.

Otherwise, it's yet another mindless rant from a person who can't even be bothered to spell check his 'prestigious internet magazine'.

Note - the words 'prestigious' and 'internet' can't really be used in the same sentence together.

Sounds like our little guy has learned the word "bullshit". Just go f*ck your campfire at the boyscouts

P.S. I'm not your bro

Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order and everything becomes chaos. I'm an agent of chaos.

Here comes the banhammer brigade.

EDIT: Just read the review, it seems to satirical to actually be real, but you never know, either it's a massive joke, or this guy is a complete moron.

Yeah. The OP pretty much defines the word 'troll'. I've long searched for the perfect troll post, and after years of searching I think I've finally found it - the holy grail of troll posts. It's almost beautiful!

Please don't ban him. If he can post this, I'm sure he can post even more nutty stuff. I've been searching for years to find someone who has achieved 'troll nirvana'. Now I've found him, it would be a shame to lose him without getting a little more fun out of him.

I read some of his other crazed rants - the guy is obsessed with Halo, thinks the Xbox 360 is better than a PC and believes PC gamers are contemptible casual players who need to switch to a 'real gaming rig'. Classic stuff! It's like the world village idiot champion has stumbled into our forum.

It's very possible he's just doing it for the lulz. Even so, parody is not exactly the height of humour. Any idiot can act stupid, but a true comedian knows how to clue his audience in on what he really thinks - this guy doesn't know how to do that.

The Onion is troll nirvana. This guy is an amateur.

For anyone who doubts if he's a troll:
I thought it'd be pretty good because i saw EA's seal of quality on it but turns out it wasn't the official seal.
At any rate, he's a friendly troll, not a flaming troll, seeing's how he's simply linking us a comically satirical review of the game instead of making a thread poorly bashing something controversial.

That's what made me think it's a joke, it's quite absurd. Especially when he mentions "EA's seal of approval".

The thing is, I don't see what the point is of making such a spoof. I mean, if he's a fan of the game I think he's doing more harm than good because, even if it's meant to be funny (i.e. if it's meant to spoof the folks who launch badly thought-out internet rants), his blog just seems a little bit ill-humoured, not to mention in bad taste (I don't think I've seen that much coarse language all on one page before). If he really is trying to trash the game, the same applies. Either way, he just makes himself look like an idiot, and that sort of garbage tends to lower the tone of any discussion that stems from it. Reading it is like going into a sewer - no matter what you're doing down there and no matter what the intent of the people who built it, you're going to come out smelling like crap.

Maybe that's his point - to make us all slightly the worse for reading his garbage.

LoL, idiot indeed. I can't believe I read that. At least the comments at the bottom ripped him up just as well. While his entire "review" was nothing short of retarded, I think there was one little gem of truth in the entry...

I want to shoot guns at shit, not fucking pay 50 bucks for baltic fucking avenue.
I think we ALL don't want to pay too much for Baltic Avenue...I mean, it's merely a cheap purple property that doesn't intimidate anyone! They should give it to the first person that lands on it!

If the title, all caps post, and the fact that he uses 1337 in his review and the creative misspelling of "left 4 dead' weren't enough to clue you fellows into the fact that this is indeed a satire, I have a few bridges I'd like to sell you.

That review...wasn't even clever.

Hey, you can't do that! I already bought a deed from someone else that says I own every bridge in the world. Stop trying to sell my stuff!
