Shane was the secret best member of 1-up yours.

Luke Smith laughs at you.

 

[LiK]

I'm going with here's another score: 5/10
5/10

guess you're skipping the ones with the good reviews.

 

[ryan-ts]

Our god...jerk

Please forgive me, Brother.

 

[Fjordson]

Best of luck to you, Shane. Will always be awesome.

Camoflaj would be interesting landing spot indeed.

 

[yankeehater]

So is he finally going to go work for Sony?

I can't tell if you're going with "The game isn't good, here's why" or "The game is good, look at these jokers!"

Is it link to foreign language reviews day on GAF or something?

 

[VGChampion]

Hope he goes back into journalism. I miss hearing a lot of the 1up group.

 

[Wario64]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

 

[AntiTout]

This is embarassing... vraiment.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

No matter where he goes he'll always be my Mangod. Ignition hasn't always nailed it but I think it's safe to say we wouldn't have seen Deadly Premonition without his influence.

i seriously didn't give a shit about DP until Shane was pimping it on podcasts. and i thank him for it profusely.

FUCK, i hope someone will localize Grand Knights History. Shane was the guy who pimped it on twitter the most.

 

[Y2Kev]

Ignition is legit done for so I'm glad Shane is getting out of there.

 

[Zomba13]

10/20 or 5/10 average game. average

What do review scores have to do with how much he enjoyed the game?

It could have gotten 0/10s or 11/10s and he'd still enjoy it as much as he did.

Same here. Thanks Shane!

 

[Kyoufu]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

Bookmarked!

 

[Kaako]

Best of luck Shane. Do what you gotta do.

 

[enzo_gt]

Hope wherever you go next treats you well Shane. Good luck.

Also, when and if Shane returns to a regular podcast, I'll go back to listening to podcasts again.

You will always be my Mangod.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Wasn't Ignition also the reason why Deadly Premonition had combat gameplay shoehorned in?

 

[GhostWriter24]

He pushed El Shaddai like no PR guy has pushed before. I mean, he legitimately saved that title from a complete sales catastrophe.

 

[Volcynika]

Only knew him from Ignition, so I just got used to hearing a lot of BS about good localizations. So eh. Maybe he'll find something better.

 

[inner-G]

I hope he ends up somewhere where he can be on a regular podcast!

He's always so entertaining (and shares a lot of my gaming preferences and interests), he was always my favorite on 1up Yours, I hope he finds something he likes, either way.

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

(lol)

 

[Curufinwe]

I hope he goes to 8-4. Him and Mark (the real secret best member of of 1UPYours) make a great podcast team.

 

[JABEE]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

That's not fair.

Deadly Premonition Review 10/10

It is worth noting that the review is in the same language as all the voice work in the game.

Reviews don't mean much, but if I didn't speak English it would have no doubt harmed my enjoyment of Deadly Premonition. Subtitles just aren't the same for a game like this.

 

[LiK]

Wasn't Ignition also the reason why Deadly Premonition had combat gameplay shoehorned in?

iirc, i think it was Swery's management that told him to add it in.

 

[benny_a]

I hope he ends up somewhere where he can be on a regular podcast!

I basically hope for completely selfish reasons that this is the case.

Shane + regular podcast, maybe with the addition of not being a game maker so as to be able to talk completely freely would be the best.

 

[LQX]

I doubt he would downgrade to work for a website. I bet he finally goes to Sony.

 

[AntiTout]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

Banned (lol)

 

[clashfan]

I think he's going to 343.

 

[Franklinator]

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

I'd bet my account too but mine's worthless and forgettable, lol

 

[StuBurns]

That's just unfair in the podcast wars, GiantBomb can't compete with that.

Seriously though, he can't speak Japanese can he?

 

[CoachKevin]

Luke Smith laughs at you.

No secret about it.

I guess you didn't get the joke/reference how he always would say, "[insert game here] is the secret best [genre] game ever."

 

[JesseZao]

Water Bats check in.

 

[StuBurns]

I guess you didn't get the joke/reference how he always would say, "[insert game here] is the secret best [genre] game ever."

I still don't get it, but alas, I'm sure it's funny.

 

[angelfly]

Seriously though, he can't speak Japanese can he?

I remember him saying before that he learned a bit. That was during the old 1UP days.

 

[Pyccko]

Ah, good ol' Mangod. Well, at least he got us El Shaddai before jumping ship. Hope he moves on to something lovely.

 

[JABEE]

I'd bet my account too but mine's worthless and forgettable, lol

Wario is already Banned (lol).

[Edgeward]

Well, took long enough for the rumors to come true. Always heard rumbling of it, glad he got out before that Ignition ship totally sank.

 

[Calcaneus]

Hahah at the Arc Rise video. That one guy sounds like Seinfeld.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zygDzAkothQ#t=1m56s

Hahah, he does.

But I don't wanna be a pirate!

 

[kenta]

Camouflaj was also my first thought (bonus points for spelling it right)

I'd wish him luck but God doesn't need luck

 

[MrDaravon]

Makes me sad only because it makes me worry about a localization for any further SWERY stuff. But yeah, someone needs to be bitch slapped for ARF, man that was terrible. I have a pretty high tolerance for so-so JRPGs and I couldn't play that thing for more than an hour, with the translation and voices (oh god the voices) being the final straw.

There's not getting it, and there's just being a shitty person.

Good luck Shane!

 

[Coldsnap]

man i was liking what ignition was doing

Camoflaj. I bet my account.

I wonder why he is going there? Hmm..

Anything going on in Tokyo this week?

Good luck Shane, excited to see where you land!
