Whoever gave me a C+ on Bomberman: Race For The Championship, I think you felt sorry for me. I made that crap when I was in fifth grade, I deserve nothing higher than a D.
EDIT: Never mind, sorry for this post. I admit that I sure was an emo pussy for posting something like this.

I did. I didn't give the grade out of pity. I gave it as a reward for actually putting together a comprehensive story (segment) that didn't leave me at any point wondering what in the world I was doing. Although I will be honest... I still think the graphics stink. _________________ LJ.Art

Who gave you that so called "I-felt-sorry-for-you review" anyway?

And it's good you were getting the storyline. But besides those two I see no reason the game was good. |

but you do forget that a 'c' grade does not mean "good". anyone who's been through a school system where they use a's, b's, and c's know that c's basically mean 'mearly acceptable'. or 'just passable enough not to be lame'. when i gave you the grade, what i mean it to say to everyone is ('c') this is a so-so game. there are no outstanding flaws to hamper you badly enough to knock it down to a 'd' or an 'f'... but there are no outstanding points to knock it up to a 'b' or an 'a'. and ('+') while you shouldn't expect anything special from the file, the file is contstructed better than many other 'c' games i've tried. _________________ LJ.Art

Mmmm. Well, it's your opinion, I guess, but what I was meant was that I see no reason my game was "merely acceptable" when it was utter crap. |

The letter grade system on CP is out of whack. In theory, a 5/10 on a CP review would be considered "average" (equivalent to a C in school). So in this case, the grade probably is higher than it should be. _________________ im realy ded  |

But the lowest you can give in terms of number grades is 1, not 0.
And a final grade is not always the average of the points given. I personally tend to skew my grade greatly towards enjoyment and gameplay. You can get a 10 graphics score and medeocre other scores and still only get around a C. _________________ But enough talk, have at you! |
