blog one- XCOM or Dishonored post by jim sterling

Video Game information and blogs are defiently fun to look at but when I read ones like below it makes me think.

"If there's one thing my Twitter feed has been telling me this week, it's that gamers are desperately choosing between XCOM: Enemy Unknown and Dishonored, two good looking games that, in their own ways, stand out among the generic "me too" games of the season. 

Don't look at us for any help. We reviewed Dishonored, we reviewed XCOM, and both games reached a well-deserved draw in the score stakes, each sitting pretty at a 9.0. 

As the "AAA" season truly kicks off, gamers face tough choices about where to spend their limited funds. Decisions like this are always tough, which is why we're making it tougher and demanding that you choose. Of course, you can be a clever-clogs and say "both" or "neither," but you're the one nobody liked in school, so screw you. 

This is all before we factor in the Retro City Rampage wild card, too. Damn it. 
Anyway, DISHONORED OR XCOM YOU MUST CHOOSE RAAAARRRGGGHHH!"

These people who write on these blogs tend to be well informed about anything game related. I don't doubt Jim is knowledgeable on the subject but this kind of post is kind of annoying; well only certain parts of it.

This line "Of course, you can be a clever-clogs and say "both" or "neither," but you're the one nobody liked in school, so screw you." is the sort of stuff i cant tell if the writer is being funny or not. Either way as a reader i don't like it.

The rargh at the end makes me think this isn't too serious of a post, so I should not take it too seriously.
I would say this is a casual post and if I want to read Jim writing seriously about something; I would bet he has written a lot of good posts which one could take as trustworthy.

This particular post I will not follow to choose one of those games, I'd pick both or neither.
