Oops. Shows what happens when I don't fully proof-read a review for a change. Ok, am going to fix these.
Edit: Fixed those, and a few others (mainly sentences starting with but), but didn't add that extra s. "The graphics come" is correct.

With the Abandonia Grammar Squad inactive until Raffles resurfaces, I've got to get my nitpicking fix elsewhere, so...
All of the following are from the Frederik Pohl's Gateway review:
Also in that last one, something ("are," perhaps) seems to be missing after the word "graphics."
I'm thinking there should be a "for the" in there somewhere.
No apostrophe is necessary in the possessive "its." Also, that semicolon should be a full-on colon.
Also, I think there should be a "since" or an "as" or even a "because" before "you never know."
All of the following are from the Frederik Pohl's Gateway review:

About the review: well, it's still got far less mistakes than the NetHack review on AB.
