Defending this guy's decision to hurf away in novocain-lipped monotone isn't going to do you any favors here. Regardless of justification, the result is utterly cringe-worthy, as are the failed attempts at dark humor.
I'm not looking to win favors here, mate. As far as I'm concerned, I did a favor to all of you. A big one imho. If it's not your cup o tea- meh.

These were very interesting, but I'd love it if Yahtzee had done them instead. The scenes with the girl had me reaching for the fast-forward button. I'd watch his Star Trek movie reviews (the TNG movies definitely need a thorough thrashing) but I don't think I can spend another 5 minutes with this guy.

Brando had marbles in his mouth. Should I assume you passed on
The Godfather for that affront?
I have passed on them, but not because of that. That said, I also find what I've heard of his performance equally as annoying.

Yes. I can listen to Zero Punctuation for ages.

So you avoided a classic for some nebulous bs but you can listen to some jumped up (if mildly amusing) games journo for ages?
Yeah, you're never going to surprise anyone. Well done champ.

Posting a link to cutting edge internet circa two months ago certainly does place us firmly in your debt.
Defending the things it did wrong has elevated your stature even further.
how long can this meteoric rise last

kolya, now's the moment to come out in the open and tell stitch to shut the fuck up

Hehe
Gotta to love those local xenophobes who, when speaking to the "new guy", manage to somehow tap into the hive-mind of "their" forum. They start to speak in "we"s and ramble about collective taste and social status or something.
Read my whereabouts, jerko, I'm one happy lurker, so save your delusions about Ziggy Stardusts rise and falls to someone else.

Oh god, this is going to turn into another ttlg naval gazing thread. Can't distain for starwars bring balance to the force?
This review schtick does remind me of yahtzee actually, albeit slowed down. The individual jokes aren't sparkling with wit, mostly they're cheap gags. But with enough of them, even the "gosh I'm a basement dwelling nerd/psycho for doing this" stuff that falls flat, I warm to the over all.

Funny, I was just watching some of these.
I have to say, it's a bit of a chore to sit through them sometimes because they're just so long, but that's because he's ridiculous thorough, and is pretty much right about everything he says. I like that he actually shows the footage while he talks too, it helps that you know what the fuck he's talking about.
That said, he's not that funny, but he's still entertaining. I still need to watch the Attack of the Clones review, maybe his humour has gotten better.
Edit: FUCK, the first part of the review has been removed due to copyright.

Hey, a well-placed "(

Also all the "It's for kids!" montages.
