Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Heh, that may be why all the crows around my house stay around.  We chase them away, then lure them back with walnuts to do it again.

That's probably a fake. It still made me laugh, though  :P

pfffffftahaha.
Too great.

Wow. I suppose the reviewer makes these 'sacrifices' for the good of the reader or something?

It's more than a little odd, anyway.

Violence - 10/10
Language - 0/10
Sexual Content - 0/10
Occult/Supernatural - 10/10
Cultural/Moral/Ethical - 6/10

So it does conform to Christian ethics in some unspecified way. I wonder what the reviewer meant by that...

There's no violence or other violation of the large number of non-sex-related Christian norms.

Their rating system seems to be backwards. Higher scores mean less presence, it would seem.

Mmh, it's a "how Christianly does it show the theme" rather than "how bad does it show the thing".

From a local newspaper:

Police had to see the funny side after they were called to a disturbance in a flat in Trowbridge.

Sgt Jim Suter tweeted: "Turns out occupant was shouting at TV having lost a game of Ultimate Street Fighter."

Okay, CCG is actually a goldmine of things that elicit a laugh.

So the review for Portal 2 is pretty solid. It reads like the recommendation of an enthusiastic fan, along with some very mild concerns over language. Inanimate object violence is mentioned but apparently not bothered about. The religious references in the game don't get mentioned either but I guess that's not the thing they do.
But in the summary there was this gem:

Absolutely brilliant.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I just love how any time they mention Pokémon, on anything from Smash Bros to the games themselves, it brings the Morality down a few notches because you "summon monsters" and they "cast spells".
