Shining Force Neo 4
by Evil Overlord in video game reviews, Playstation 2 in the mid-morning on February 27th, 2006: 4 years ago

Shining: To distinguish oneself in an activity or a field; excel.
Force: To compel through pressure or necessity.
Neo: New and different.
Shining Force Neo: RPG that is neither shining nor neo but does force the player to slog through wave after wave of enemies only to endure a badly written storyline that was in dire need of further revision and copy-editing.

Shadow Hearts: From the New World 1
by Evil Overlord in video game reviews, Playstation 2 during first breakfast on February 21st, 2006: 4 years ago

Normal ninja are rather mysterious, secretive fellows from Japan; Frank is a Brazilian ninja with an odd penchant for ripping objects from the ground and making weapons out of them. Normal cats are small, fluffy creatures, loved by their owners; Mao is giant, talking cat who spends her days as a Chicago mob lieutenant and moonlights as an aspiring actress. Normal private detectives are cynical, wise-cracking retired cops; Johnny Garland is a sixteen year old rich kid with an unexplained past and the ability to form a lightsaber from a knife. Normal is a setting on the dryer; Shadow Hearts: From the New World is not, by any stretch of the definition, normal.
