I hate David Gibbon's arrogance. I hate the way he thinks he knows everything about games and I hate the way the BBC can't be bothered to find a decent reviewer for their Ceefax service.
David Gibbon has an appropriate name. He is a gibbon. A complete idiot.
Has anyone read those shoddy reviews like that Gibbon bloke on BBC ceefax, who thinks 7/10 is the worst score to give to anything, or is it just me who has suffered the mindless rantings about how AMAZING Roadsters is on the Dreamcast?
David Gibbon gave Roadsters 9/10 for the Dreamcast. Obviously the gaming public were not fooled, but some were. They were left fuming at this absolute pile of pants, oh and the game was utter pap. Roadsters is the worst game on the Dreamcast BAR none. How much are they paying this loser?
When the PS2 was released I open mindedly read his "LOWDOWN ON THE PS2" as advertised on Ceefax. What a load of complete backwards pants. "The PlayStation 2 is of course internet ready with a broadband modem"
Yeah, ok then.
David Gibbon reviewed a cartoon style game on the Dreamcast - it was a game aimed at kids, I can't remember exactly what it was, but he slated the game off for the whole review and awarded it 7/10 because it was awful. Does he know the scale goes from 1 - 10? Evidently not.
I am not even going to read his GBA lowdown as it will probably claim the console has wings, a tail and doubles as a Television and radio - literally, he'd probably say something ridiculous.
It is clear to me that he either has no idea about gaming or doesn't actually get the games or consoles to review them. He thinks the original PlayStation games have the most incredible graphics around and gave ChuChu Rocket 10/10.
Maybe he just doesn't KNOW how to use scoring systems?
A pity the viewers that read his drivel, and I feel sorry for him as he has clearly never played a game in his life.
Tut Tut/
The world, however, does need reviewers like him, for he makes the rest of us look like high class pro's.
Your turn - s**g him off to your hearts content.

I've only just got up!
Oh a reviewer...
Who the hell is David Gibbon?!
where can i read his reviews
Well, I would say you Dan but I don't think viewers want to sift through 27 pages of review to find the score!
Does he have an E-mail address? We could spam it.
Note: Anyone remember the spammer? Well, we overused it and crashed the server. They went to check it out and realised what it was. I now have had my account deleted. B****r.
