New Hun-Speak! -- 9:34 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Well folks, it's a new year. Time to vent my spleen! Today's target: online reviews. Far too many reviews that I've read on the web (especially of games) can be boiled down to either "it sucks" or "it rocks." Neither is particularly helpful or informative. Now the situation has taken a turn for the worse since you can't swing a cyber-stick without hitting a Quake III Arena or Unreal Tournament review (even on this very site!). Check out my thoughts on the subject in my new Hun-Speak column entitled Reviewing: a Lost Art?

The Master comments: This is the result of my posting of a really lame review link on The Haus. I apologize for exposing our readership to that review. Won't happen again :-)
