Bleu Cheese has always eluded me. I want to like it, I see the appeal, and people everywhere tell me it’s amazing. I have even tried it a hundred different ways, but every time I go back to it I always ask myself “Why am I eating this, it tastes like a sweaty feet?” Some games are kind of like that too…minus the sweaty foot part. I was assigned review duties for Deception IV: Blood Ties and the absolute truth of it is that I tried my hardest to like this game, perhaps the hardest I’ve ever tried to like a game. Over the course of several days and several play sessions I would approach it again with fresh eyes, a fresh mind, and a renewed sense of purpose, but in the end, I had to admit defeat. I simply could not like it as much as I hoped. My tenacity wouldn’t allow for it and it’s a damned shame, because the idea for the game is bloody cool.
Electronic devices can be difficult to clean properly as they all have intricate little parts and buttons and switches. I learned that the hardest way possible when I blank-mindedly drooled all over my keyboard after reading a text that said “Wanna review Batman?” I wish I could say that it was regular drool, but it wasn’t. Nope, this drool was one of excitement as I am a Batman fan, and being able to review the latest game had me somewhat excited. That and whole bags of Cheetos and half a case of Pepsi tend to create more of a syrupy substance than regular saliva. Regardless, I accepted my next review assignment without thinking twice.
