He obviously did the review in a hurry, and just flat-out made stuff up. For example: DORK>Musical Score: The musical score is spartan at best. I don't DORK>really think that it matters much in this type of game, DORK>however. I can say that the music does nothing to set the DORK>mood of the game nor does it give me any sense of enjoyment DORK>just for music's sake. I quickly turned it off. Um, there is no music in GPL. DORK>Do I look like a grease monkey? Well, you obviously don't DORK>know for sure, but I can tell you I don't and I have little DORK>knowledge of how the different settings on these cars DORK>affected their performance. Sierra expects the gamer to DORK>know how to set up the car for each track in order to obtain DORK>the best track times. The manual has nothing in it to show DORK>people what each setting does and how to go about DORK>setting up a car for a certain track. Worse than that, DORK>there is no middle-of-the-road setting provided for each DORK>track. You are on your own in finding out how to set up DORK>your car for any given event. I guess he was too busy bashing the docs to bother reading them. "Four Wheel Drift" contains a large and very well-written chapter about setting up the cars. Easily the best setup guide I've seen in any racing game. And the default setups aren't bad. The reviewer seems not to have read Avault's review criteria for "intelligence and difficulty." He gives it 2.5 stars because he's too dumb to play it and it's too hard for him. Avault mentions that "This is more a measure for advanced, *** gamers who like a significant challenge," so he should have given it 5 stars. Gotta wonder why this guy signed up to review this game, if he was too busy to read the docs, play with detail settings, etc. -- spamgard(tm): To email me, put "geek" in your Subject line.
