There's a few I enjoy. John Tron can be entertaining, and I like Jeremy Jahns movie reviews.

[QUOTE="lx_theo"][QUOTE="Master_ShakeXXX"]

I don't agree with 70% of his sh*t opinions. The guy thinks that Metal Gear Solid or anything even remotely cinematic for that matter, and Japanese developed games in general, are the gaming equivalent to the anti-christ. Yet I still respect the man for so fearlessly and proudly exercizing his right of free speech and doing so in such an entertaining manner. He just doesn't give a sh*t. His mind is impervious to the brainwashing methods used by the bought and paid for modern day media.  Mother f*cker should be the most beloved critic on the internet.

Master_ShakeXXX

Because brainwashing yourself into blind devotion of your own ego is SO much better :lol:

This doesn't make one lick of sense. One cannot simply brainwash one's self. There has to be a third party involved. Some kind of outside persuasion.

Sounds to me like this guy has brainwashed you...

I don't mind videos where they just play random games. 4PlayerPodcast is great. They play scary games and their reactions always crack me up.

I know he's not very popular around here because he isn't afraid to share his actual god honest opinion and refuses to be a little bandwagon jumping b*tch but listen to his words. Like him or not, the man speaks the truth. And Silent Hill Downpour is indeed good as confirmed by razorfist.

Master_ShakeXXX
Well he is right on a few levels. People who have been in the gaming journalist field like myself has been aware of this for years. We never favored any games due to advertising as we didn't have a huge amount of advertising on our site to begin with. We gave our honest opinion on every game and product we reviewed. We all know there are online sites that are bias and will provide more coverage for games who's publishers pay for more advertising.

So he thinks of himself as some kind Angry Joe precursor?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Anyway, while IGN is the easiest target out there, he fails incredible hard to make valid points, for once Mass Effect 3 is pretty good, also he tells us things that we all know for years, did he really thinks he is making a discovery here?

BTW, Silent Hill Downpour sucks as much as IGN or this Razorfist guy.

It is true though. 

Reviewers are basically paid to giver certain games good reviews.

He was just stating the obvious and he even failed at that because he started showing his bias at the end of the video which was somewhat ironic.

Wow. Well, I do appreciate that he has an extensive vocabulary.

But this...guy...is...an...IDIOT.

All you are wasting your time paying attention to is a man who forgot somewhere down the road that gaming is supposed to FUN.

I happen to love IGN because of their coverage. No need to be hatin' so much. On anybody for that matter. It's about GAMING you jackass. Calm the hell down. 

It's a shame for all of humanity and for the gaming community that this man has access to a video camera and the internet. A true shame. 

Anyhoo....back to playing my new Tomb Raider and Castlevania games and enjoy them. Because that's what I do with my gaming time......

..........

..............

..................I enjoy games. (/GASP!)

You were paid to say that.

His evidence is solely numbers and marks... actually see what the reviews say. His arguments boil down to "They gave this game I liked a comically low score, making them incredible".

This guy is a clueless moron, can't stand him. He talks about things he has no idea about but seems to actually believe he is above everything and knows everything about everything. He also thinks by using big words people will think he is smart and is telling the truith. He can't even come up with his own logo.

I can't disagree with him. I do occasionally see what's going on at IGN, but they're a joke.

Their reviews are the most untrustworthy you could get. You'd be a fool to base a purchase off one of their reviews, good or bad.

Half their articles sound borderline unprofesional in their fanboyism. For example, they've had the following in their heading 'How the PS4 won the next generation' or 'how PS4 beats the Next Xbox'.

Their articles are flamebait for the fanboys.

Silent Hill Downpour is indeed good.

Master_ShakeXXX

No, it isn't. Survival horror is my favorite genre and I hated it.

Also, IGN scored Diablo 3 AAA; of course it's game scoring is terrible...

So basically, he's going off about crap just about everyone and their mothers know about: Gaming journalism is a joke. Someone give this guy a Pulitzer. I love how he speaks so "intelligently" while simultaneously sounding like a belligerent idiot. A rare talent.
