Game reviews, and phraseolgy in general

I love magazines and articles with a tongue in cheek style! I'm going to have to read 1UP articles more often.

Battle for Middle Earth 2:
"this game was the closest you could get to waging hobbity war"
"woe unto anyone who has to go toe-to-toe with the power-giddy elf queen Galadriel"

Galactic Civilizations 2: Dread Lords:
"Steve Barcia's magnificent 1993 opus about ants, cats, bears, and frogs in space"
"a race of goody-goody aliens who look like Billy Idol, obviously making them extraterrestrials."
