Ah, I missed that. I started with III and it was a nearly traumatic experience, one that made me explore, out of simple respect for tradition, all the other chapters. In short, I is legendary; looking at it today, it brings a certain tenderness due to the haphazard graphics, with a simple first half and a complex second half (St Francis Folly and Natla most notably). II is even better, very cohesive, difficult from start to finish, with several legendary levels (Opera, Barkhang Monastery, the dreadful Temple of Xian, and the most absurd among those ever conceived for TR: Floating Islands, a real space-time trip). However, what I consider the best is III, with immense difficulty, featuring exceptional solutions in the Pacific (all levels are beautiful) and in London (Lud's Gate and especially Aldwych, which completely changed my life, forcing me into weeks of mental torture trying to figure it out). IV is nice, long, but easier to resolve, though very well-crafted and full of intelligent and refined puzzles. Chronicles is negligible, despite some good ideas. The transition to PS2 gave us an Angel of Darkness that was too sophisticated and full of bugs, a nice Legend (Lara in Tokyo has the best outfit of the series), a decent Anniversary, but clearly lacking substantial innovations. Praise to Lara.

Oh, I really liked "Afraid to Dance", I'm sure this one isn't bad either. I'll listen to it, of course. Nes, blast "Darklands" by the Jesus & Mary Chain and the legendary "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine. Then move on to post-shoegaze with M83, Radio Dept., and Slowdive.

Well, I had forgotten about it. And to think you used to remind me of it ages ago, every time I shared my gut reaction on an album. I didn't know that all it took was to say, "I like it, I don't care if it's crap" to praise a little turd. I should take note.

Well, you're really an idiot, nothing more to add.

Alright, on the matter of the availability of big beat these days I’ve already told you, so I’ll move on and, as is my right, annoy you. Well, after all the rambling of the review, you can’t give this a 5. I mean, you search for the beat, you search for the bass, you search for the sound, but if you find it here, it doesn’t mean you should take the censer and praise this box of honest live kitsch. You said it yourself: "Did someone say Homework-Alive 1997?" (and for me, there's a lot of "Human After All" in there too), and with that we already say it's a good original imitation of that live; they pound, okay, but it's impossible not to think of Daft Punk. The work is honest, the kick satisfies you, but it’s music that doesn’t aspire to anything. Then some tracks are also vaguely embarrassing (spitting on Discovery, but "D.A.N.C.E.", "DVNO," and "The Ppaarrttyy" - the latter simply horrendous - are tremendously trendy tracks). No, seriously, how did you come up with the idea to praise this stuff, only you know. ZiOn gets me and gives it a 3: hard to give more. Values are too subjective; it's ignorant big beat, you said it yourself. I rate the review because I have nothing to do.

I disassociate myself from Geenoo!

Hey, every now and then I try to see if you’ve improved, then I read and realize your tastes are still coarse and trivial. Can you please stop with those whiny metal bands that shred like they’ve got a nutria on their gonads? I'm still waiting for you to give me a nice review on Riccardo Fogli and Wilma Goich… now that’s some serious stuff. It feels like I’m talking to a wall. Review minchiozzella antsdwtzichenò.

"longer unbeaten" is intended.

There are a thousand more just like him. Anyway, Lehmann definitely had a remarkable career: a flag bearer for Arsenal, I remember he was always making silly mistakes, and Marianella, who always commented on the London team on Sky, would consistently give him a hard time. However, he had a decent second half of his career, and as is often the case with the theory of the "poor goalkeeper," he broke records. He holds the record for the longest unbeaten run by a goalkeeper in the Champions League, which, wouldn't you know it, used to belong to Van der Sar, who is also a testament to the poor goalkeeper rule. In Italy, that record is held by Seba Rossi, who wasn't exactly a phenomenon. The poor goalkeeper is always destined for great triumphs, remember that.
