My Absence - 06.19.2012
To the two of you who have missed my reviews, I am sorry. I have had a metric fuck ton of stuff come up lately, and on top of that my computer decides it wants to shit on me. So until I get the cash to get a brand new one, you won't be seeing much of the Zen Arcade. And for those of you who may ask "hey you goofy fuck how did you do the top 5 lists?" it's all credited to my iPhone and shitty data plan. So I sincerely apologize to anyone who had expectations for me...I promise I'll get something up in the next few weeks. It's an intricate process

Zen Arcade Preview - 05.07.2012
Hey. I'm Jake, a new Video Reviewer. I was recently writing for the Oratory Forums and have a rather large archive from there. Thanks for letting me aboard and the biggest mystery is what kind of trolls will comment on my posts. I can't wait.
From now until whenever, I will be reviewing anything I really see fit. My review title is Zen Arcade, as it is with the Oratory. I have a vast archive (by vast, about 7 shows worth, two of which are pretty bad) of ROH shows, which will be what I am mainly reviewing. I will be venturing off into whatever-land as I go along, but ROH is familiar territory so we'll take babysteps for now. Other promotions may include PWG, CHIKARA, WWE, and EVOLVE. Any suggestions are welcome, but if they aren't accessible by way of a download or YouTube, chances are you're not gonna get said review.
Also, any constructive criticism (or potential hate mail filled with musings of my cheeto-eating and virginism) is welcome as well. I've never written for a website like this, so some changes would inevitably make what I'm shoving down your throat better.
Thanks to 411 and whoever reads this!
