Score Breakdown
Wow. How did I even miss this… Awesome.
This is genius….
I never really knew what GameCola was until now.
And Jeddy doesn’t want to do reviews anymore. Pah.
How did Air Fortress get a better score than Faxanadu? Really? REALLY? Can’t trust you guys no more…
I’m not sure I’d give the games the same scores if I reviewed them today… I could see putting them both at 3.5. Both were bad games hidden behind a cool opening, but at least Air Fortress was playable.
Oh WOW. That was amazing. Is that really what it’s like to work for GameCola?
For the most part, but we have an office in Connecticut for tax purposes.
