An Amazon user review for a particular recent game is making headlines. Is it because it’s eloquent and elegant, as if penned by Geoffrey Chaucer himself? Is it a Shakespearean love sonnet, a worthy ode to a game that could reduce its reader to tears?
In what is a testament to the values of education, This review could in fact make its readers cry; Unfortunately they will be tears of laughter – or tears brought about by distraught confusion.
The review, in its entirety, reads like this :
i got game n kil rat mutate over n over untl bad dude kil me ouch. i like game lot n rats r cool n stuff wen thety mutate n try to kill me daed ouch! It ok to play n shoot bad dude n i get game n tell u to get game to kil rat an bad dudes in ur guns u kill rat. Ok great good but no ok good great just ok good great good. Get.
Umm..what? I suspect all of you, like I, have been physically and mentally pained by reading that; demonstrating the absolute power words have over us. Oh yeah, before I forget : The game in question, which the reviewer seems to praise so highly (It gets five stars!) is none other than a favourite of ours : Gearbox’s Borderlands. Imagine that.
I wonder if we can get this guy to write for us?
Check out the review here, and be sure to read the comments.

Get this guy ASAP! Let him write a review every second week. Or just let him ramble on random stuff. It will be like the “Ask the fruitcake lady” on Jay Leno.
easy

Firstly epic ROTFL!
And if Lazygamer didn’t jump at the oppurtunity of hiring it, we’ll take it.
