It looks like fun, I just wished the Review didn't start on page 4. I was readin a bunch of how it was made junk. I bearly know anything of the game. I'll just read a more detailed review somewere else.

It actually starts on page 1, unless you're reading it backwards...

I don't think there's much you can say to describe Alien Hominid other than it plays just like a Metal Slug game.

Although if you really don't understand what it's about, you should try out the free Flash version on Newgrounds.com as mentioned at the beginning (or perhaps, for you, at the end) of the review ; )

Same problem you had with the Mario DS review. You ASSUME we've all played the same games you'd played.

But you're some spawny game-reviewer who gets free games, and consoles, and all your hookers and cocaine paid for by the publishers.

Saying "this game plays like this other game" is just lazy journalism, and means that all of us who have never played that "other game" need to go eslewhere to read a more detailed review.

i think he means that the first 3 pages was "a bunch of how it was made junk" and the last page say something about the game itself.
