<< you cross the line when you call anyones review BS. >>

Sorry, I don't know what BS means. I really don't. Can you explain?

<< The people who write reviews here are spending their free time writting these reviews to help inform people (like you & me) decide if we want to buy into the reviewed game. >>

Well, you read my reviews so I guess you realize I perfectly acknowledge this.

<< Instead of being agressive and tearing apart the entire review and calling it BS >>

Once more, I don't know what BS means. Yet, I think you're wrong when you say I was agressive and tore apart the entire review. Please, read my post again. I start by stating that I consider it to be good review and end restating this again. I didn't explain why, true. Because I wanted to make a negative comment and to substantiate it.

Let me be clear: my whole point was the next, I think David can write good reviews and that they can be excellent if he drops the unfounded generalizations. This, IMO, is a constructive comment, not agression.

<< Also If you can't keep yourself from being so insulting to people while you do your critique >>

Once more, where was I insulting? I called no names to David. I pointed to concrete issues in the review. I gave my opinion and explained it. Yes, people may disagree. But what's insulting about it? I really and honestly don't get it. And I really and honestly would like you to explain why you think it was insulting.
