<a href=http://www.gaming-age.com>Gaming Age</a> has posted a <a href=http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/reviews/review.pl?sys=pc&game=bladesword>review</a> of <a href=http://www.whiptailinteractive.com/games_bladeandsword.php><b>Blade&Sword</b></a> giving it <b>C+</b>. The weird part is that it says "Good" under "C+", which, I guess, is some latest gaming media trend where all games are good, but some of them are better then the other.

<blockquote>Game play is as basic as click, click, click. That’s right Diablo fans, your carpel tunnel syndrome may wreak its ugly head once again. Need to move about, just click. Need to kill a foe, just click. Picking up an object, just click. How about talking to an ally? That’s right friends, just click. The action, while basic, does get heated when multiple characters are attacking at once, which can make for some interesting fight sequences. You also have a few specials attacks at your disposal. Depending on how much experience you have, you can acquire special moves that will whip those baddies back to the bowels of which they came. To use these specials will take some serious thought and technique, and I have the quick and easy solution to help you use these powerful chi attacks. If you have a pen handy here we go. Choose the chi you want to use by selecting F, R, or Q…then you…click! Whew, I hope you veterans at home can handle this</blockquote>

Overall, I'm not sure what to think. The guy says that visuals are not bad, mentions detailed character models, good architecture, smart AI, but complains about clicking? Well, it's a Diablo clone, duh!

I think it was ZZap! 64 that used to write "Naff" or "Crisp" or "Mega" on their reviews. In lieu of scores for Codex reviews, perhaps you could just use descriptive words like "Pants," "Faggot," or "Volourn" as an overall summation of your thoughts.

Spazmo is to game developers like altar boys are to Catholic priests.

I didn't ask to be this pretty--it just happened.

I thought he called Spazmo a bum, guess I have to listen to it again
