Turok Review Up!
My first review as an actual staff member is up for Gaming Excellence here.

To those of you who enjoy reading such things, Turok is another of my “bad game reviews” although I toned back the snide humor a bit. Didn’t wanna seem too insulting to the game publisher and I couldn’t think of nice ways to say some of the mean things I wanted to say.
As an aside I put some good hours into the Super Smash Bros. Brawl on an import this weekend and I’ve started working on the character guides and it isn’t that bad. The worst part is trying to figure out how much damage an attack does, whether its more effective at close or short range and things like that. That and trying to see just how useful some of these Final Smashes are is going to take a bit. Hopefully I will have the first batch of them finished and I can then move on to working on them with a 1 or 2 per day set up. Here’s hoping that the PDFs look good when I’m done…
Oh, and Lucario can kiss my butt. I’m so sick of that glorified blue weasel whupping on me. Whoever decided that he should do more damage as he gets hurt needs to be beaten with a Wii mote and then strangled with the nunchuk cable. I got so sick of beating my friend, who loves this rodent, down with the likes of Link and Bowser only to have him whiff me with Lucario’s Hadoken move and shear the crud out of my health. Argh! Finally someone more annoying than Ness.
