When a clueless reviewer attempts to review Larry 3

Post by Rakeesh »

The title sounds as if it is funny story, but actually it made me quite angry.

Just read this Larry 3 review from 1994 Amiga Power issue. Yes, the rating is 9/100!! The reviewer just haven't ever seen a Sierra game before, and is told to review one. No surprise

Still nothing. :( I click on the picture and get a white page, with the words:

"This picture is part of the Amiga Magazine Rack"

And that's it. :(
