| Fair enough, there were some parts that made me laugh when you ranted on. It only seemed nitpicky, but thats part of being a reviewer. |

((Hey Ricardo,
Okay, so I watched/listened to your review, and I have a couple of quick thoughts. These are just my opinions, so add three dollars to them, and you can buy a cup of coffee.
1) You need to get a better microphone. The one you have gives off a noticeable "hiss", and well as "chop" sounds. In order to reduce that you might need a studio quality microphone. The ones you get for gaming tend not to worry about that sound.
2) Your voice inflection seems a lot like Robin Leach from "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous". Not sure if you intended that or not.
3) Not sure if it is a British-critique thing, but your timing of "hate-to-love" sorts of switching was more... distracting, than poignant or darkly humorous. On the level of 'whiney-emo-bitch' distracting. I understand the need to vacillate between the two, ala Lewis Black, but your delivery on it needs work.
So, for what it's worth, I hope that helps some. )) |

Thanks for the advise, I'm sure to try and use it in future. |
