I've always favored content over style and grammar. To go outside video games, Stephen Hawking has an emotionless electronic voice, but its what he is saying, not how he is saying it that matters. ee cummings had horrible grammar.


Content is always important of course, but when I see a review that's riddled with grammar and spelling errors, I have a hard time taking the review seriously at all. I of course don't care about a few errors, but too many is another story.

Or is it "are another story"? "will be another story"? "shan't be another story"?

Internet reviews in general are hard to take too seriously. I'll read them to get an understanding of content and features, but the enjoyability is totally subjective. For example, one of my favorite games for the 64, got a big fat F from the critic.

Road rash 64. First game I played with rag doll physics, which I thought was hilarious. Plus, I think the actual racing is a lot of fun with a friend. Anyway...
