It works for me in Firefox just fine. Still, apparently they're aware of some tomfoolery where people can't view it.

Would you mind sending us an email describing the problem, the specs of your PC and what browser you're using?

It's weird, because it's not a rare problem, but it seems to vary from machine to machine.

That shit is nasty, yo.

:lol

The end, oh god the end. I'm dieing here. The end. :lol :lol :lol

It's funny stuff but as he alludes to in the Bioshock review, he is overly-harsh for comic effect. If he really hates every game as much as he says, why would he continue to keep playing?

Retraction: Contrary to claims made in the previous video I have not in actuality fucked your mum because damn that shit is nasty, yo

:lol


Snuck that in there at the end, barely noticed it.

"Must not fear
Fear is the mindkiller"

So awesome.

Yay, The Jam!

Yes! Between this and his adventure games, I want to hug Mister Croshaw.

Same for me (in firefox) I end up having to open it in a IE tab.

Turn ad block off.

Well he called Bioshock his game of the year. Or one of rather.

Being a diehard System Shock 2 fan, I can't agree more. Only people living in the console stone age think this game is deep. It's pretty shallow, and strikes me as a derivative of SS2. Still since games are shallow nowadays anyway, it's a pleasant game.

Besides that, it actually was/is the point to be over the top and cynical. Listen to the beginning of the Bioshock review again and you'll understand.
Criticism doesn't equal absolute hate, either. Nothing is perfect and bantering about what's not so good about the games you (don't) like is fun. See above.

The figures he draws would make for great T-shirts.

I thought his Bioshock review was his weakest (all the others are fantastic.) I guess it was for his fans who don't like "good" reviews, but I think he was trying too hard to find fault. Gun turrets that can detect between good and bad? Action that stops while you hack? I think he was begging here. Might as well fault the game for your character not ever having to tie his shoelaces or use the restroom.

Also, what's with all the comparison with System Shock? I get that it was probably a better game to many, but, a HUGE portion of us have never played that game (which is a shame.) Is it possible to form an opinion on something without a comparison? Just take the game for what it is. I guess that's the main problem I had with this review.

This is truly fantastically hilarious.

It's called jokes.

He's been writing gold for about 8 years now, I wouldn't worry.

Anyone noticed the Metroid "error"? :-)

I like this new show. Different, hilarious and entertaining as hell.


I like.

The Jam, awesome.

A bit like the Mario (without his shitty friends) error that was after that.

No, what is this "Metroid error"?

I liked his Bioshock and Heavenly Sword ones the best. Tomb Raider didn't make me laugh at all. Even the end.

Just noticed this at the end of the Tom Raider Anniversary reviev, in the credits.

"RETRACTION: Contrary to claims made in the previous video I have not in actuality fucked your mum because damn that shit is nasty, yo"

:lol :lol

Just watched the rest of his videos.
:lol :lol :lol

lol, he's hilarious, but I loved TRA :(

It was really good, and admitedly, my first experience with TR. Then I tried TRL

Which sucked balls, but only because there was more shooting than tomb raiding, which there was plenty of in TRA. And actually, TRA is significantly better than TRL.

She's a little better in TRA in comparison to TRL, but yeah, I admit finding myself just killing her out of frustration.

I have seen the top of the mountain, and it was good.

This week our hero reviews in retrospect the game of Manhunt.

How come I didn't see this thread before ? I just watched the first one and I'm surprised that some of his quick-caption work hasn't surfaced in other threads by now.

things like the PS3 "it might be really good at some uncertain point in the future" ad and the "in deference to tradition i'm actually a girl as well as looking like one" or the top spin "could you just serve the ball please" are all kinds of awesome.

not very funny this week. i laughed like twice.

Watch the first vid again.

he says something like "mario, metroid, zelda" and as he talks, Mario, Master Chief and Link appears on screen

The "Hardcore Violence" comparison chart was amusing, with Barbie Horse Adventures slightly higher than Resistance...

Hilarious as always.

Tell him he was funnier before he sold out.

i liked it... surprising no one given my very vocal anti censorship leanings.

"jump onto bandwagon issues that roll in from real countries"

thats one of my favorite lines from any of his pieces

Wrong. It's Link, Master Chief (Samus), and Sonic (Mario).

It's done for comedy, not a mistake :P

So what was his point

I liked the combination of the confusion in his voice and the drawings face when he mentioned paper bags as a weapon.

new review: Peggle
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/arti...tuation-Peggle

I was too slow :(

This is an odd choice.

I disagree. Peggle is e-crack. Also the tangent around 2:45 makes the review worth watching.

Ahahahah hilarious! Dog Dungeon, and the messages at the credits all lol worthy.
