Heh - just stumbled upon this guy's ranting and raving. Good for a laugh if you're as sarcastic as I am.
The GameCube Guy
A personal favorite in his review of Resident Evil 4 - and FYI he gave the game thumbs up:
"In previous Resident Evil games, the puzzles were retarded but challenging. In Resident Evil 4, they don’t serve any real purpose but to annoy – they’re so obvious and simple that there doesn’t seem to be a point. Take, for example, one area with a hexagonal-shaped imprint on a locked door. Leon checked it out, and the game slyly suggested, "Hmmm… I wonder if some sort of HEXAGONAL-SHAPED EMBLEM would fit in here." Sure enough, I came across such an object. Gee, what the hell I’m going to use it for? It’s like if your friend says to you, "Hey, I bet you can’t get this prostitute to sleep with you." It’s pretty obvious that you could win the bet, but is it worth the time, money, and STDs just to prove your friend is a dumbass? That’s what the puzzles in RE4 are like: sleeping with some slut and not even enjoying it."

I like how he gives the Japanese language a thumbs down.
