No, thats grammatically correct. But believes shouldn't be pluralized.

It should be "I believe I actually see perspiration there, on your forehead."

Where it says "Sale" on the navigation menu in-game should be "Sell". A "sale" is discounts given for a good. "Sell" is the act of selling goods to customers.

Hmm ... I disagree ... while "Sale" may stand for a special discount, it also refers to "the action or process of selling sth or of being sold" (Oxford Dictionary) - feel free to correct me if I am wrong :-)

Well, yes and no. "Feed" is also used for animal food - so it is correct; In Wikipedia it says:
Animal feed may refer to:

* Compound Feed, Pelleted feed produced in a feed mill
* Fodder, food given to domestic livestock, including plants cut and carried to them
* Forage, growing plants eaten by domestic livestock

So it is correct, though I am honestly unsure if "food" wouldn't be more commonly used anyway. Any comments from a native speaker on this?
