    Go to the game Clue and read the review by AlbieOne and click on his name to see all of his reviews. I think it's awesome but he's written a novel-long review of over 150 games (according to the number on the top right of his page). Just had to get that out there

    He just has the patience and articulation to make good reviews. You don't need to go make a whole thread worshipping him.

    You don't compare a stupid game reviewer with no life to God. I've never heard of bigalby I just saw the review and I said why the he'll would anyone spend this much time writing a review. I just voted him best game reviewer for that

    Need pics before making a decision :D

    Honestly, though, and I hope I'm not sounding like I'm drinking the Hatorade, there's tons of good reviewers on this site but only BA gets threads about him... I suspect artificial pheromones ;)

    I went from being a god to a game reviewer with no life. Let’s get a few things straight here.

    • I work for TA where I provide first impressions/initial reviews to help members make a better buying decision.
    • While I do work for TA, I retain my independent voice and decision-making in what games I write about and whether or not I like them separate from the opnions of Arn, Blake and Eli.
    • As for the reviewer with no life comment, I have to respectfully disagree with that. I work full time as a marketing and PR director for a tech company, involved in a stable relationship, and have a decent if not toned down social life during these recessionary days. Time management is part of my job, and in general, it takes me about 30-45 minutes to crank out a review which fits in nicely with everything else that’s going on.
    • There are plenty of good reviewers on TA and beyond (GatorDeb, theone007, Carlos-Sz, Seishu, LordGek, Stykman and Palfince to name a few), and I am just a voice in that crowd and nothing more.
    These BA threads really make me cringe because they distract from the overall game discussion, and I hope people understand where I’m coming from.

    He is a brilliant reviewer for someone who doesn't review games for a site.

    But yeah a thread about it? I would rather find out myself by reading his good reviews, not seeing a thread say so.
