I receive GI simply because I bought the edge card at Gamestop and get a free subscription to it for a year, I wouldn't even look at it otherwise. Anyway after reading the Sacred Cow BBQ I was perplexed at what the point of the article was supposed to be. I'm assuming that it was supposed to be satire but it just wasn't funny or entertaining in the least. The complaints they brought up were way to trivial for this to be a serious critique of the games they mentioned. Man you hit the nail on the head!

Well spoken sir. I wish I had more to add, but not having a copy of the offending issue in front of me, I feel ill prepared to 'pile-on'. However I think that it would be useful to send this comment to their editorial staff. Maybe if enough of us call us on crap criticism they will have to actually start being critical. Ok - one observation... isn't it curious (read: not at all curious) how none of the criticisms are likely to upset the delicate developer/publisher/journalism balance that exists at this time... Hear, hear! Well spoken sir. I wish I had more to add, but not having a copy of the offending issue in front of me, I feel ill prepared to ‘pile-on’.
