I'd like to review this game, but I'm not sure how to do it without using a lot of strong language. Are there any policies against this?

No, not implicitly... but it lowers the quality of the review if all you're going to do is swear about it. I recommend taking a deep breath and try to focus on the different aspects of this game.

And yes, I have played this title and would probably end up agreeing with your "strong languaged" assessment of it :)

Heh, when I read "kid-safe", I can't stop thinking about a kid trying to hack the site...

WOW! I just played this. I want whoever is responsible for this abomination slaughtered.

Well, after seeing this:

I would say dirty words are the least of your concern.

I hope the Angry Video Game Nerd picks it up soon, I'm sure it will be quite foul-mouthed video review! That guy is just hilarious.

I'm not usually a fan, but I loved his coverage of Silver Surfer.

yeah, I must have had that game in my possession for a month or two... and I didn't get anywhere. Looking at the MG entry, I see I contributed all the screenshots... so I assume I cheated :)

Replace all of (or most of) your obscene words with currency signs and other miscellaneous things you can type by pressing the shift key and a number. That way you (almost) get your point across (but no one takes you f@$%ing seriously).

Then my title would be "A $#%^ing !@#*%y piece of #&$^!"

That highlighted part is profanity. The rest is fine. :)
