Congrats critic, that is quite a feat. I started coming here around 2009 when I first discovered the site. I don't remember how I found it but I check in about every other day. Again congrats and your reviews are great

Dag Gum, it HAS been 20 years now, hasn't it? I remember when I was in high school printing out copies of the various review pages as they were updated and reading them offline because of how limited our time was online due to dialup...

Re: Happy 20th anniversary!
Yes, they were good then, and have improved as you went along. Until we got devices that let us read web pages regularly, I kept binders that I updated regularly for references as I bought games... I disagreed with some reviews (and still do; I have a soft spot for the Lion King Game Boy (Original) game), but it was a good reference to go by when looking for games.
I even recommended the site to coworkers and customers back when I worked at retail (Walmart, Target, GameStop) for over 10+ years.
Not many gaming review sites kept up the content or variety of reviews, and very, very few kept the humor.

You should be a competitor in the final VGM, like Shao Kahn in Mortal Kombat.

Re: Happy 20th anniversary!
Thanks for all the hilarious, insightful, and entertaining reviews, Critic. Been enjoying your site since around 2010 (old account was Ultramegaunknown1). Here's to a new decade of enchantment and more wonderful games!!
