[/B]

Bold text

< color=red> < /color>

<color=red> Colored Text

Hidden text

Centered Text

Now edit your post >.<, and your review is VERY opinionated.

very well, i will comment, i wont completely agree with you but i will comment.

You can charge your controller, of course the greedy bastards at microsoft make you pay extra for rechargable battery packs.

you are only joining partys and games with the wrong people (Highlandsnipe) and also i appologise for the threatening letters.

I completely agree with you on the built in wireless capabilities.

Farcry, theres another good original xbox game, stubbs the zombie, look another one!

Yes the majority of the community are a bunch of racist, retarded bastards, but that does make opertunities for some comedy.

Your one to talk about money-whores!

And finally, just to annoy you, Left 4 Dead

Holy block of text. A good read, but let down by poor structuring. Paragraphs are your friend.

One thing you forgot to mention was the appalling hardware failure rate of xbobx 360. I should know, i'm on number 5 now XD
Your review also lacks decent structuring. Not properly paragraphed and overly long sentences make it a chore to read.

That was a pretty sub-standard review to be honest. You scored it 2/5 but you actually seem to like the Xbox more than that. You can't blame MicroSoft or the Xbox for idiot gamers and your complaints about the LIVE marketplace are largly unfounded. You seemed to use the review to ***** a bit, if you don't want to party then don't party.
You tried to throw in some reviews of games but some of them were really dismissive. For example, how does being a "cover shooter" make Gears of War bad exactly? It just seemed very lazy.
The structuring was alright but an improvement would be nice.

Don't bother with the analogies, you can't work them yet.

Welcome back guys.

This is my second console review and it?s probably going to be the least interesting. The reason for this is the Xbox is so bloody perfect that it?s hard to find anything truly bad about it and for me that?s a hard pill to swallow. Most of its problems are attributed to humanity and I can hardly blame an electronic device for all that is wrong in the heart of man.
This is all I could read. And it's ridiculous. Just off the top of my head I can list a few things "wrong" with the 360;
- RROD
- E74
- Online play costs
- No built-in wireless
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. You say it's problems are attributed to humanity like it's some kind of religion. You're saying it has no flaws, and any flaws that could be found are the fault of humans? You do realise how fucking dumb that sounds when you're talking about a gaming console?

Your "review" is all opinionated, has no sense of structure, and just looks like an ugly wall of text.

0/5 would not read again.

When I said 2/5 I meant it's the second of 5 reviews.

I've only just started doing reviews and thanks to comments like yours I'm probably going to get better. Thank you for telling me how to do all that with the text. There might have been a page telling me how to do that but I was just too ignorant to look. Also I am quite opinionated but I'll try to be a little less biased.

That was awful, you failed to comment on any of the machines fault or the companies fault yet you open up the first paragraph with it being mostly humanity problems?

I'm going to stop you here because a review is a balanced view on it, registering all major faults and all major advantages. Yours did none of these except one or two accessory costs that Microsoft made however failed to address a large amount of other flaws

It was hard as fuck to read due no pictures to break down text and lack of paragraphing made it one of the most difficult things to read

Also 2/5 what the fuck? You say the console is good then give it a shit score and wtf "the controllers are pro" wtf does that mean to the reader? Nothing

Final point, do not I repeat DO NOT tell us to comment. That is unnecessary and makes you look desperate

For my conclusion, do not write a review ever again until you address all my points and everyone else's points. Don't just try to be a bit less opinionated, be a lot less opinionated, it will help no end

Sorry for the rant but that was the worst review I have ever read

You don't spend much time on this part of the forum, do you?

Not masses, usually off topic but even reviews I've seen from lot of other people whose reviews were a million times better

Yeah. I was around here last about two months ago, and to put it bluntly, this guy isn't even touching the bottom of the pile.

The entire thing is filled with "we all know" on HIGHLY polarizing topics. Many people like the games you insulted or hate the games you complemented or don't have the same developer prejudices as you, so most of the review falls pretty flat. Its a review of way too many things at once, which means you don't explain any of your sub points convincingly. It is unfortunately one of those "if you already agree you'll agree, if not then not" pieces. Certainly not the worst I've read though.

Okay, what is the worst review you have ever seen? However this excludes the 2 line reviews saying the game is gay by some troll

Once the race started it got off to a steady start, overtaken by the wii but he got a stitch and the Xbox overtook him.
Stopped reading. I've yet to find a source that says the Wii has sold less in its lifetime than the 360. Got a source for that?

Can people please stop reading this review. It was my first and It was shite. I'm going to take this as a lesson and stop reviewing the consoles. Using your criticism I'll hopefully make my reviews much better.
