Hey OP, maybe not everyone remembers some obscure anonymous reviewer from a 1990s magazine. How about explaining who you talking about before posting?
It reminded me of this recent thread where the same thing happened.
There is only so much one user can do to combat this - With varying levels of success :/
Maybe i should also ask the OP if he knew about
Mortal Marcel, which is a rather infamous guy for hating on Street Fighter back in the 90s, i remember. In reality he was just a regular reader of the mag the
PowerSpy originated from, but he was given guest reviews too. This was at a time where Street Fighter vs Mortal Kombat was a big craze, and this bloke hated SF more than any other human on the planet. Atleast this is
context to the character, unlike OP's.
so many young padawans who didn't know about EGM or Sushi-X.
I knew of EGM, but not Sushi-X. That's why OP is problematic - It lacks
context and supposely you just
have to know about him.
me too...the excitement of getting freshly gaming previews, reviews, gossips, cheats every month!
now, it's just news overload and overreaction every waking moment!
*grumble grumble*
Now get off my lawn!!
We actually still have a mag like that, called
Gameplay. It is around for over 20 years, formerly PC Gameplay. I have some old issues from the 90s around still and i still irregularly buy them because its the only mag out there in my country that still has an eye for lesser known games and they actually do great interviews with big devs aswell.
Actually, they also had
characters as employees. Who remembers
Shotgun Pete?

Some guy who reaaaaaaly hated gameboy. Jeremy Parish in a time machine after completing Gameboy Works.
Mortal Marcel was this but for Street Fighter. It should be obvious why he was called
Mortal Marcel though.. and its not because he was drunk all the time.
