He edits my reviews too to write the sentences more correctly, grammatical as more easy to understand too. I know I make mistakes. And enough of them. I have no problem with that. All the time so far his edit looked better than before.
Now back to topic, people.

Yes back on topic... It was a good review Omuletzu, and its a great game. I've had alot of fun playing it in the past. It worked on my old 286 that I had for a while there, so I used to play it alot. Its funny, cos I didn't have a manual for it, I had to work everything out, and that was quite confusing.

Yup another one of those great games that I only ever had the demo for. Glad I finally have the full game!

P.S. You guys all speak (type) English very well, at university I have a lot of 'international' friends and it always amazes me how bad my Country (UK) is at learning other languages, you all put me to shame.

We have no merit. Playing games since childhood makes this look easy, but it took us all a lot of time.

I've checked, you haven't corrected it... you've just replaced words.
For some reason you replaced "you'll find numerous clues and motives" into "you'll find more clues and more motives" both are gramatically correct.

If you ask me you've 'modified' it just enough to get legal ownership of the review.
AHA! the plot thickens

Something simillar happened to my review of Detroit.
Nothing was changed, but Kosta added a few sentences.
The literary style might differ slightly, but apart from that it actually was an informative adition (something I forgot to mention ).

There were lots of grammar and spelling errors so I had to change it a bit. As for the sidenote, well, when you become a regular reviewer, I will make it "your" thing Until then, patience...*
Hey Kosta no offence but i don't make gramatical errors.I double check every word that's not in my "common used words" with google.I'm not even getting into spelling.... :eeeeeh: :blink:
Somebody mentioned something about a great review.Thanks!
I have sent tom henrik the review for hof.Sorry about the delay, i had some personal matters... And with all due respect, i would apreciate it if my "thing" would be called as it is in the hof review.I mean "sidenote" , that's like a gossip or something.I thought that introducing a curiosity bit would make people more interested in the game, but i see this is not the case.Oh and regarding the regular reviewer thing, you should know that this is one of my goals.Actually i'm going to check the "helps us..." section right now.
And another thing if i don't review something for a long time this means that i haven't found anything on your list that i have previous experience with.
example : i'm not going to review ishar 2, because i haven't played it.When something that i played appears on the list, i will review it.

Let me just say that you used the word "wich" instead of "which". Then you used "verry" instead of "very". Numerous times you wrote "I" with a small "i", and trust me, there were LOTS of inconsistencies in the sentences. Some were too short, some too long, misplaced commas... you name it. Sorry to say it like this, but it was a mess
