This actually is not positive, as he gave it a -47/-50, -50 being the worst. Just thought I'd point that out.

I just remembered something else: Peach Princess should probably see if this Zack Parsons even bought the copy of Snow Drop he's reviewing, since it's unlikely that Peach Princess would have given him one. I say it's more likely than not that he's playing a pirated version of the game, since he never mentions anything about music or sound, and pirated versions of games are routinely supposed to have sound taken out.

So if you want to unlock the CG scenes of you screwing your sister in Snow Drop I suggest you not share the directory on file sharing programs or you may be arrested for having child pornography.
Heh, welcome out of the shadows HOWARD-san.
Hmm, I remember seeing that review before. Like many other “reviews” I’ve seen, it really isn’t one. One of the problems with the web, any nitwit can put stuff like that up.
SomethingAwful is a satirical site… You should for instance read their movies or other game reviews… As every satirical work, their objective is to provoke…
For instance, last year, they “reviewed” LotR and flamed it… 
You shouldn’t mind them at all.
i think it’s funny how he focuses soooooo much on how you screw your sister in the game, and in fact, you never do
Yeah like olf_le_fol said the site is like the onion buncha satire. You should read some of their articles about anime I wouldn’t pay it any mind.
Well, as mentioned before the site is just satire, they just make fun of things, actually I think they have a statement of that in the site, in other words if you get mad, you lose, since they weren’t serious to begin with.
And yes, all the games they “review” are pirated games.

I agree.
The name of the site itself gives away, they want to criticize regardless if justified or not.
However, the "reviews" at IGN.com are another matter...
Well, even if they aren’t serious about it, it still hurts a little to see someone speak of SD in this way ^^;. But IGN hurts much worse… .
Oh, and welcome to the PP boards, Howard! a small horde of lemons jumps forward to greet Howard

Well you can always think of it this way, Snow Drop was good enough to be satired :P
Yeah. Something Awful is pretty funny at times–their Awful Link of the Day sites are, most of the time, truly bad. And their review of Anarchy Online is just classic. But they do exist solely to rip on people.
