I’m trying to write an impression of CIMA: The Enemy. Also, I’m working on a piece about Cave Story, so I can finally let everyone know why I think it is the most perfect game ever crafted. Some issues have come to my mind though.

Games journalism is terribly annoying, and often ineffective. Why is it, and what can we do to stop it?

Also, why even read a review? If you know what you like, you can find everything you need from the game’s score and it’s genre label. Is anything beyond this even necessary?

I don’t really answer any questions (but I think they could lead to interesting places), and much of the first part is ranty.

Article after cut.
