Introduction

Hi, My name is Mike. Thank you so much for reading my blog! This blog takes game demos from XBOX 360 and reviews them. Why do I review game demos that people can download for free, and then decide for themselves to buy or not? Several reasons!

1. Sometimes, there are a lot of demos, and not everyone can download every one and play them.

2. I have noticed a sharp decrease in the quality of video gaming in general over the last several years, and I would like to talk about some of it, because I am an ego maniac, and think that everyone most definitely should care about what I say.

3. I would like to write full time when I get out of school one day, and people tell me the best way of doing this is starting a blog.

4. Taking into account 2 and 3, I have no money whatsoever. So I can't justify going to spend $60 on a new game once a week. I also have no time to play through said games every week, so I came to

5. Demos. Cheap, easy to play, and quick. I will spare you the comment about liking my women this way.

So that is why I chose to read this blog. I suck at math, so we will not be rating games with numbers, decimals, or anything else that may remind me of my 6th grade math teacher or the horrible, horrible things he said to me. Oh, and Mr. Gaulic, if you are listening, I did so become something. I am on the Internet.

I also never understood why people chose arbitrary things, such as stars, to rate games (as in this game gets 5 stars etc) I mean the both the symbols and the numbering are meaningless. Why use stars? Why 5, or 10? What exactly does 5 stars mean anyway? The same thing as 100,000 cantaloupes, or 20,000,000,000,000,000 widgets, or 3.5 fish

Nothing at all.

So my rating system for these demos is easy. You either should buy the game at full price, buy the game at half price, rent it, or skip it.

That's all. There may be some subcategories, for example, "Rent this game, but if you are a really big fan of 16th century art, particularly the paintings of Jaun Jaurez, then buy this game, as it will appeal to you."

So that is that. Please subscribe to my blog, as I will be posting soon.
