    ZeitGeistgreview is a weird combination of the beautiful german term Zeitgeist and just some ordinary review. I mean, really, how could you dare combining those?

    Actually, Zeitgeist was the name of my characters in MMOs as I played them over the years, and those MMOs were running my life. I gave up on them cold turkey and decided to do game reviews instead. It was a natural transition to use my MMO character name in my review title, and as such, named myself Zeitgeist Game Review.

    Good review. It told me everything I needed to know without giving anything away. I was worried about watching it at first but it turned out pretty good.

    Fair enough. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it more in depth. I get comments on it a lot, especially in reference to the Zeitgeist Movement, which many assume that I'm associated simply by name.

    Quite simple, for my personal taste, these two words just don't fit together and it sounds terrible. I'm german and Zeitgeist is a interesting term, which is often widely used as well as abused in more intellectual classes because of its meaning and due to that it sounds kind of hip.

    Maybe it's a little bit like mixing Absinth with some yoghurt banana drink.

    Aye, and that's the exact reason I used it as my character's name in MMOs. It sounded cool. I suppose I'd relate it the most to American's who get Chinese words tattooed on their bodies for no other reason than the characters look cool.

    Yeah, when I was Searching for the channel it came up with all these strange suggestions like religion and a movie. No idea what that's about.

    You mean you haven't gotten it yet?


    Nah, reviewers get an early, maybe-unfinished copy, so they can get their reviews out when normal customers get their copy.

    That's correct.
