but at least we can look forward to another 1-star-athon of reviews on sites like Amazon.
All Amazon reviews are written by people like that bloke on IMDB who kicked off in the comments section of "The Last Samurai" who was convinced he lived his life by the Bushido code and did not, in fact, spend it masturbating in his mom's basement.
And by that, I mean they're completely valueless - it's 99% either glowing praise or frothing vitriol which no savvy consumer should give the time of day to.

Unless it's for an electric shaver.

Valueless? You have GOT to be joking. It has gotten so bad that before I buy ANY PC game, I have to read the 1-star reviews on Amazon to find out what kind of malware the game I am researching potentially includes. Since most publishers try not to share this information until after the purchase and the major review sites are spineless and don't usually mention such things, it is the only way to know if I'll end up with secret drivers that sabotage my ability to burn backups, or something even worse.

I think he meant people that don't have "I'm a PC and I am not running Windows" in their signatures.

lol
But to use the word "all" is rather farfetched methinks.. Not ALL reviews are bad.

I think he meant people.

It was a reference to those annoying commercials. It isn't even correct anymore because I actually do use Windows 7. I should change it to "and sometimes I run Windows".

lost_soul, missing the point as always.
