An Introduction

Hello all and welcome to my attempt at a gaming blog.  To start it off, I believe that an introduction is in order.  My name is *DEADNAME* Neumann, I go by the universal screen name of Zyphron37, I’m a red haired 17-year-old living in a Chicago suburb.  I have been playing video games since I was 6-years-old and got an N64 for Christmas.  I own an N64, 2 GBAs, A Wii, a DS, a 3DS, and an Xbox 360.  I was a huge Nintendo and Sonic fanboy back in the day, but I decided that’s it made more sense to be a fanboy of video games in general.  I plan on giving my two cents on occurrences in the Game industry, write reviews for games, talk about Anime that I like and maybe just some random rubbish about the insane dribble that oozes from my mind.

I would like to clarify my review scoring system.  I give games that I believe to be average a 24/40 (I prefer whole numbers, in my opinion, decimals and fractions shouldn’t mix).  And while I will give a lot of high scores, that’s because I tend to buy games that are, well, good.  Who would want to buy something they believe to be average, when there is something great right next to it, and for a cheaper price.  I will still try to be a bit harsher than other reviewers, but there are times when they’re right, and expect me to directly follow the crowd then, and only then.

I am also not very graceful in terms of grammar, so feel free to correct me.  I am also open to any criticism, as long as you aren’t just obscenely bitchy.  By the way, note that updates will be sporadic for a while, and until I fall into a schedule that I can follow.

To clear a bit of ground work, here are my thoughts on The most recent systems:
