It's a crappy review. True that I'd not have rated it much higher, but it does seem to be especially nasty about stupid things, considering that there's other things genuinely wrong with the game.
Neither Jay nor Rhys can take criticism. They deserve one another.
Tigerworks> Ryh's review was deleted, why you coundn't find it.
BradonC> As you can see Wong is deleting the worst reviews. (If asked to check them, then it is in his right to delete or keep them) So if all was checked then they wouldn't have to go back to delete them.
Actually I was the one who deleted RhysD's review of TOR - not Wong. Obviously the review was up in retaliation against Jays review of Milber 2 (and quite frankly I couldn't find anything wrong with that review). And although Rhys review did contain some constructive critisism, it was quite clear to me that he posted it in retaliation. Hell, he even frickin mentioned it in the first line.
It's pathetic, to be honest, that we might have to consider introducing a "check review page before submission" - because the whole point of TDC is to act together as a community and offer constructive opinions. And you need to learn to deal with any negative comments, Rhys. Jay has never slagged off the game. He hasn't said any part of it is crap and not given a reason. I've studied your actions over the years and I've noticed that this is probably your weakest point - not accepting critisism. Your game has tonnes of 8/10's and 9/10's - why can't you be happy with them?
I'm not solely ganging up on Rhys either, because you have to take the rough with the smooth, and I personally think that Jay can't take critisism too well either. Also possibly a touch of arrogance in there as well
Both of you need to stop sniping at each other, and quit bitching. Save the arguments you have to private DC mail and stop dragging everyone else into it.
TDC is a great place to post to get loads of criticisms to improve your games. You just have to ignore the people who aren't criticising you in a useful way.
I havent read RhysD's review on TOR for the obvious reason, but i did read Jay's review of Milber. I must admit i didnt like Milber or TOR at all, i thought they both were quite average and i wouldnt rate over a "5", and both being graphically nice yet failed completely in the gameplay area, there was no "Fun factor". I do think Jay's review was really short, not much content but not bad enough to get deleted although i havent seen RhyD's review so i cant judge whether that was bad enough to be deleted or not.
"I think what Rhys meant is Jay is a faggety hypocrite not worth the organic material he's printed on"
Thats still no reason not to like a review. Besides that, Jay is nice to most people, Rhys can only say nice things about himself (or at least I don't remember him saying anything nice about somebody/something else).
Sure, the game sucked, I admit it, but it doesn't exactly say why in the review. When I give a bad review, I try to explain how it can be made better. But Mill Kenny didn't say why. He just repeated some quote from a Star Wars add or something.
Fine Garbage since 2003.

P.S. Newklear Productions should virtually die.
