Love Francis

PS4 was from Sid Shuman, only allowed to play for 2 hours apparently.

His videos, both Francis and serious are often worth the time to watch.

I laughed my ass off the first time I saw him toss the controller.

[alr1ght]

Please tell me we get to see the boot up screen, I can't watch the video from where I am right now.

sort of

 

[nbnt]

For clarifications sake, because I know people are already wondering how he got his PS4 early:

He didn't. He got a loaner to play around with for a couple hours.

Awww. And here I was thinking what a damn lucky guy. This sucks.

:lol brb making room for my future PS4.

 

[Nibel]

Sony just randomly sent him one? For being on YouTube? Huh?

He has bunch of subscribers and his Francis character is popular - it's a good move by Sony

 

[SniperHunter]

I'm more amazed by the fact the some GAFers don't know him.

Tell us more

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Great video.

 

[Mechanized]

lol I love how he just chucked the new PS4 controller.

 

[rudieboy77]

Video gamer stereotype, oh boy...

 

[Einbroch]

One thing is sure true.

Both Sony and Microsoft have amazing logos. The circle-x and the PS are so sexy.

 

[John Caboose]

It's got the same PS3 alarm clock/microwave beep when you turn it on. :/

 

[DirgeExtinction]

This guy is hilarious.


Btw, I found this comment to be pretty hilarious, too:

XB1 was is the recipient of an award from POPULAR MECHANICS for 1 of 10 best products of 2013. They went on to say that "some products are evolutionary and some are revolutionary. XBOX ONE is both"
Google it!
PS4 didn't make it cause lets face it, that system doesn't have anything new to bring to the table. It's PS3 2.0. It's hardware might be better but that don't mean that they are moving the ball forward w/ innovation. XB1 is true NEXT GEN.

 

[Bren McGuire]

For a second I thought the pope got a ps4.

 

[Alej]

I could've even watch that video after seeing his state.

Should've got him an Xbox One so he could sign up for Insanity.

What...?

 

[Birathen]

media members cry

Why? He is not one of them journamolists?

 

[Live Free or Die]

media members cry

so good. lol

 

[manny10032]

This guy is a dick. Why do people watch him?

You do know that Francis is just a character??

 

[Piggus]

media members cry

The way the media has been acting, they don't deserve shit. They can get it the same day as the rest of us.

 

[GulAtiCa]

Man, the way he just tosses the 360 is just awesome.. :lol

 

[TheRealTalker]

For clarifications sake, because I know people are already wondering how he got his PS4 early:

He didn't. He got a loaner to play around with for a couple hours.

awww I hope if he does get his official one early then I'd hope to see a good U.I video

Spoiler

most mainstream websites have gone down in quality recently... literarily with their players

 

[Nokterian]

He really is.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ1cUup0ATg

Very touching story. Such a cool guy.

 

[Covfan]

I'm ready.

I miss Mongrels

 

[Mononoke]

This guy is a dick. Why do people watch him?

It's an act (ie. Francis is a character). Not really my kind of humor, but I think the guy playing him is actually nice.

 

[Replicant]

So Francis gets a PS4 and sessler doesn't?

COULD SOMEONE *PLEASE* THINK OF SESSLER'S LIVELIHOOD?!

 

[Donthizz#]

next up PewDiePie.

 

[weeeeezy]

You do know that Francis is just a character??

Sorry I do not. If it's just a character I guess it's okay, although I don't know why people would enjoy this.

 

[Hurley]

This guy is a dick. Why do people watch him?

How is he a dick? Oh, you think that character is real?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

This guy is a dick. Why do people watch him?

Jesus.

His "Draw my Life" video should be from now on the first post in every Francis thread so people would stop hating on his joke character.

 

[Coolbgdog12]

@ how he started opening the box. LOL that's how I will open mines up fuck a box cutter.

 

[DBT85]

Including griefing his wife/GF/sister?

Hm, it just comes across like everything wrong with gaming in one video - including his size.

It's his wife (married a few weeks ago), and yes, just a character, watch some of his non Francis videos. He's a gamer the core. It's a parody character, meant to highlight how fucking dumb some people cam be at time, or how much rage they get over things.

 

[nin1000]

He really is.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ1cUup0ATg

That video is very touching and sad

OT : Cant wait for my ps4

 

[Cipherr]

This guy is on my awesome list for eternity for the videos he made about the fucked up Diablo III launch with the often offline servers.

 

[Fermbiz]

I want to feel like this.....

 

[Prelude.]

next up PewDiePie.

Sony has probably better taste in internet personalities.

 

[one_kill]

Sorry I do not. If it's just a character I guess it's okay, although I don't know why people would enjoy this.

I don't know why people enjoy watching silly characters doing silly things either.

 

[kyser73]

Is it not obvious it's a character?

Awesomely funny, especially the making room moment.

 

[Sendou]

He is pretty funny. It's amazing how easily launch day hype gets to you. I'm kind of hoping that PS4 sells out for the rest of the year to make resisting easier.

 

[LegoArmo]

Boogie is a great guy. He is trying very, very hard to lose weight. When you get to that size it's not as easy as going on a treadmill or doing Insanity. Standing up is a chore for him.

You should watch all his videos, he's very intelligent, thoughtful, helpful and well spoken.

One of my favourite YouTubers. Sony would be very smart to send a few of the most popular YouTubers a console early. They can do more for excitement and hype than most "journalists", and at this point they still actually realise how lucky they are.

 

[Cipherr]

Sorry I do not. If it's just a character I guess it's okay, although I don't know why people would enjoy this.

Different people like different stuff.

 

[hwy_61]

Every single time there is a Francis video, its always followed by the sad videos.

Francis is a character. He isn't real.

 

[Puppet Shadow]

I'm more amazed by the fact that some GAFers don't know him.

I've been following gaming for years, and never heard of him till the XBox One reveal.

*shrugs

 

[Bgamer90]

Hilarious.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

I want to feel like this.....

lol, reminds me of the Nintendo 64 kid.

 

[LOLOMGWTFBBQ]

next up PewDiePie.

I find him really annoying.

 

[maquiladora]

You do know that Francis is just a character??

I swear this happens in every single Francis thread.

 

[Donthizz#]

I find him really annoying.

lol, your not the only one.

 

[nib95]

Lol pretty funny. Loved when he just threw the controller and later the 360 lol. Badly wanted to see the start up animation! Damn you Sony and your NDA's!

 

[Mutanthands]

Damn, this thread has taken a negative turn. Tenor of the times, unfortunately.

Francis is a fun little bit of self parody. Boogie is a cool guy in real life who's working on his problems.

 

[leadbelly]

lol

Francis is amazing!
