In the Caveman Ninja Article:
"And whereas the Level 1 T-Rex could only spit small rocks and tumbling caveman."
"This level is probably slightly easy than Course A because it's easy to navigate the snake than the pterodactyl."
In the Hulk Hogan article:
"While it's a bad premise for a horror movie, the idea that some people simply aren't supposed to have a children is still a valid one."
"He's certainly a good American, but unfortunately for him, America doesn't control of Heaven."
In the Konami Aliens article:
"As if that weren't annoying enough, a random alien jumps through the foreground for discernible reason other than to briefly obfuscate your view."
"For a game that came out such a long time after its source movie, Aliens still feels like it hastily thrown together."
"Even it were, it doesn't change the fact that the game is a pile of crap."

I don't think that's correct? I'd design track for him to play, and he'd design tracks for me to play.

The way you put it in the article sounded incorrect and impersonal. It makes it sound like you two are both robots. Or maybe that's just me.

Well, your rephrasing is factually incorrect. We didn't design for each of us to try; we designed tracks for each other to try.

Actually, that's not a typo. She pronounces "to" wrong in order to force a rhyme with monster.

In the Robot Master article on Bombman
| Quote: |
| Dr. Wily was on to something here. If you wanna take over the world, don't built robots that throw snow or leaves; build robots that throw fucking bombs. |
Also Wily never made any of the 6 Robot Masters in the first game, Dr. Light did.

I don't know what's canon these days, but in the original story, Dr. Wily co-built them, then stole them and repurposed them for his own evil ends.

In the commodore 64 Christmas games article:
| Quote: |
| There are five areas to get through: North America, Europe, Africa, the Antarctic, and Finland. |
Unless the game lists it as the "Antartic". Either way, I don't think "The" should be capitalized

I believe you mean "thought", not "though".

I'm totally not going to watch 25 minutes of someone playing a game I didn't even like. Explain.

The playthrough ends with the Queen getting blown to bits with firepower and no involvement of the Power Loader, and her remains sucked into space, though the close-up shot of her still depicts her whole.

In English, Wily and Light were partners and while Light "built" them, it's likely Wily had a hand in it. In Japan, they were rivals and Light built the first 8 by himself.
As far as I know, Wily didn't build the robots in 4 (Cossack did), 6 (he stole them from a robot tournament), 9 (more Light robots reprogrammed), or 10 (random robots run amok). He absolutely built the ones in 2, 7, and 8. He clearly had a hand in the robots in 5, though I'm not sure if he built them directly or just had Dark Man do it, but if your robots build robots, they're your robots too, right? 3, I'm not sure at all, but I think they were Light/Wily co-creations.

I could change the intro line from Wily's robots to Wily's minions, but creator or not, he stole them and reprogrammed them to do his bidding, which make them "Wily's robots" via possession regardless of whatever copyrights might be held on them by others.
If I walk into a mall with a knife and start stabbing at people, if I confess to using the knife, and if my fingerprints are the only ones found on the knife, then it's MY knife as far as anyone is concerned, even if I stole it.
