I had to stop watching when he blackjacked the door. I let out an audible squeal.
In short, these guys are retards. Sorry. But anyone who starts out playing a game that is all about sneaking, compares it to Splinter Cell in the first breath, then gets in a swordfight with the first guard they meet (which I assume happened because Benny's on the other side of that door, right?), is just an ignorant mouth-breather. These are the people who think Call of Duty and Halo are the height of gaming, and probably enjoy tv shows like CSI and Jersey Shore. I can't curse here, but 45 seconds of that video sent me into a spittle born nerd rage of epic proportions.

It was painful to watch... but in a funny way. I laughed through most of it.

Since I'm still kind of new here, I don't know what reputation TB has, but I like a bunch of his quotes and statements.
He's reasonably professional and entertaining. I watch his first impressions thingies for research before buying stuff.
Generally, I'd take the opinion of people like TB, Yahtzee, Campster and Shamus Young over those of "professional gaming journalists" any day.

"respectable"
You're expecting gaming journalists -- particularly ones affiliated with the official rag of Gamestop -- to actually know what they're talking about? Hell, I don't even completely trust Rock Paper Shotgun or Eurogamer these days.
