Good review, but you might want to drop the idea of scoring each section. Ive read so many reviews, and I personally think a game shouldn't be diminished down to a number or letter grade. I know people who make purchase decisions based on if a game gets a 8 or higher or something like that, and over time I've discovered you can get your point across without a grading system.

The other issue with a grading system is what basis it has. Do you compare the control in a game based on what you would like it to be, other games, what the developer has made previously, and so on.

These reviews I have been posting a quite old from when I first start writing stuff. I have another 4 or 5 left to post at TOB, I have another few new ones written in the past few months that are set up like i do my youtube videos, no numbers, no dedicated sections, just me talking about the game.

Cheers for the feedback!
