[QUOTE=a]I think that's one of those things that the proper way to use it is now just the silly way. It's just like data. You're supposed to say "The data show that...", but who on earth wouldn't say "The data shows that..."?[/QUOTE]

My datum concurs with your data.

Mad Dog Mcree Gunslinger Pack and Super Smash Bros. Brawl say that they are rated E when in fact they are rated Teen.

Lol. It would be so weird to actually hear someone say datum.

This is a minor mistake but in your review of Pop Jam for the playstation,
You quote that "Pop Jam quite unique". You forgot the "is".

Mass Destruction (Saturn)= "in contract to Desert Storm"

It's funny I came across that. I saw your thread earlier today and realized that there were a few misspellings like that in several reviews, but I couldn't recall which ones, and I wasn't prepared to look over every review. A few minutes ago I was thinking about how bad Saturn was at 3d. And I looked at this game and saw a typo. Anyways, keep up the good work.

[QUOTE=TedE.Bear]Since you asked......

In your review of Friday the 13th for the NES you refer to "six camp councilors".  It should be "counselors".
[/QUOTE]

You have changed it to "councelors".  I still think it should be "counselors".

If I am incorrect I do apologize.  For my penance I will play OINK for the Atari 2600 non-stop until my wrist breaks.

You are correct. Councelors is not a word (unless it's the British spelling or something, but I don't think the critic's British).

You say in your review of Sonic Jam that you can play as Knuckles in Sonic 1. Is this correct? I just got it for my Saturn and I can't figure out how to do that. Sonic Jam does let you spin dash in Sonic 1.

Also, a lot of your Saturn reviews are imports, but it doesn't say it next to the title in parentheses like you normally do. It would be really helpful if you could add that in Battle Garegga, Salamander Deluxe Pack Plus, and Soukyugurentai Otokuyo (although that one's kind of obvious). Those are the ones you say are imports in the reviews; I don't know if any others are. Thanks.
