(I assume you're talking to me) Hell no. They're terrible, but they're MY terribles. I did them back in 2000 or so.
They're totally confusing for shifts in perspective without any announcement, ridiculously overlong sentence-cum-paragraphs and in the end a bit boring for their plodding "he went to here and then he did this and then he thought that and blah blah blah".

Anyone got anything similar?
Yes, when I was about 13 years old, a bunch of us had the idea of producing a game fanzine although it never got further than me typing up some reviews on an Amstrad PCW. If I dig them out I will scan them here, I recall them being hugely embarrassingly written and horribly derivative of the reviewing style of magazines like
Your Sinclair and
Crash.
