A shooter creation system plus a load of awesome shovelware for $20? We think we can do that.

So you praise these games in one article and call them shovelware in the next?
WTF, mate?

rRootage, etc. are free PC games that Majesco decided to stick on the disc along with Blast Works. I still praise them. In fact, I said they're awesome. But what else would you call a bunch of extra games put on the disc just because? It's good shovelware!

He DID say "awesome" shovelware.
