Nice review of Space Giraffe in Games magazine. 8/10

'games doesn't take price into account when reviewing games, but at only the equivalent of £3.40 it's hard not to think of Space Giraffe as one of the best value games currently available.'

Another review.

If you can see past my blatant self-promotion that is. ;)

Two reviewers. Main score = 9/10, second opinion = 6/10.

Hmm:
Where it should inspire me to think ‘Ah a quick game of ‘Giraffe to wind down with’, instead it just leaves me cold like so many other games of its ilk .
One thing that SG isn't; a game to wind down with. :D

After just a level or two I can feel the adrenaline pumping. 8)

yeah we had a slight difference of opinion on that. the site is using the old 'Crash'/'Zzap' thing of having a main review and then a second opinion. they don't always have to agree, although I dare say on COD4 they will.

the primary review is the one that carries the main score though and I'm a complete slut for that giraffe action.

That's like saying "A quick round of Burnout 3 to go with my cup of herbal tea and a few Enya tunes." I wish more reviewers would talk about the game they're playing instead of the one they wish it was.

Evil fuwafuwa would ask the second reviewer "Did you get Boi Bumba achievement?"....then following questions would be "Do you know how?" "Did you read how to play?" ;)

(space giraffe related apparently)
Coming from someone capable of posting this I'll take the fact he doesn't like SG as a recommendation.
What is that guy doing on the internet? There is absolutely nothing about him that makes him remotely interesting, and his opinion regarding games means less than nothing to me.

He shouldn't be playing games, he should be jogging.
