Internet Video Game / Movie Reviewers that Suck.....Read on!

Post by TheCoolinator »

A wise and handsome gentleman just typed this gem to me in a PM.....
On a last note, I see I'm not alone in the 'the reviewers suck' category. Think about this, what makes these guys 'Video Game Gurus?' What do they know other than the spec sheet given to then to talk about the system? Have they ever actually researched anything, taken a system apart, code a game...? When someone says they gave up getting laid over a game, that's a twisted guy who's opinion is just as skewed as his priorities...can't trust that guy!
And now I will begin by saying I can't STAND these absolutely useless people on Youtube, BlipTV, or any other internet video medium because they all suck at either playing the games they are reviewing (AVGN) or understanding the movie they are watching....


Please, PLEASE do 5 minutes of GOD DAM research before you start subjecting the rest of the internet world to your horrid review videos. Now, I'm not talking about Little Billy's or Todd the Arcade enthusiast reviews. I'm talking about the headliners.....The people that are popular for reasons I cannot understand. Most of these imbeciles that I will be listing have the emotional age of a 10 year old and do not warrant the amount of reviewers that they have. NONE, of them talk about REAL issues on their shows NOR do they talk about interesting subjects.

Their mindless formula goes as follows:

1. Pick a movie or video game from the 80's to 90's decade

2. Find the slightest flaws in them, blow it out of proportion, and continuously harp on the small insignificant errors until the times up.

3. Use a 4th grade comedy style that employs jokes about body functions, profanity, and slap stick that only a toddler would find humorous.

4. WASH, RINSE, REPEAT


LIST OF HATED

Angry Video Game Nerd = IT GOT OLD, IT'S PLAYED OUT, STOP CURSING, GROW THE FUCK UP. NO ONE CARES! YOUR BAD AT VIDEO GAMES. DONATE THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO CAN PLAY THEM PROPERLY!!!

ThatGuyWithGlasses = YOUR FAKE SMILE IS IMMATURE, YOUR RIDICULOUS SKITS CAN BE RECREATED AT LUNCH TIME IN A GRADE SCHOOL. GET A LIFE

Spoony = YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS A IRRATIC OVER EMOTIONAL WHORE and YOUR A COMPLETE AND UTTER WASTE OF OXYGEN. DO US ALL A FAVOR AND THROW YOURSELF OFF A BRIDGE INTO A VERY DEEP BODY OF WATER SO THAT AT LEAST YOUR REMAINS WILL BE USED BY THE OCEAN ECOSYSTEM.

MekaKitty = What are you? 2 years old? No one cares that your a model....no one cares that you edit your video to show all the funny little squeek sounds you can make. You have no substance and you never discuss anything relevant......EVER......go back to standing still and getting photo's taken of you....

Nostalgic Chick / Dudette = YOUR CONDECENDING PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL ARROGANT MANNER CAN'T CONCEAL YOUR FUTURE UNEMPLOYMENT.YOUR WASTING YOUR PARENT'S MONEY GOING TO FILM SCHOOL, GET A REAL JOB, GROW UP, STOP MAKING "RAPE" JOKES BECAUSE AS AN ADULT HUMAN THAT IS INAPPROPRIATE and INCONSIDERATE TO OTHERS!

:D :lol: :D :lol: :D :lol:

I'm the guilty guy who said that...thanx for not throwing me under the bus. Also that handsome guy thing was a work of art, being no one would have guess it was my ugly self.

As far as the reviewers go, I like to know what college or university did they go to get certification of being a movie/game reviewer? I remeber when Siskel and Ebert were the kings of TV review...Gene Siskel has nothing to his credit and Roger Ebert only did "Valley of the Ultra Vixens"...horrible. Siskel & Ebert is are experts? Note, Gene Siskel died when the Dreamcast came out ironically.

Internet reviewers do not spend time with the game that they are to review while the developers spent months creating the game. Once the noline reviewer plays the game for a couple hours (if that), they start their online criticism of it. They do not know if the game really had a fan following, legacy, or even how or why a game is a sequel to a previous one they never played let alone learn the nuances.

My favourite is the one spoof that Morgan Webb (as Morgan Von Webb wearing a lab jacket) did with testing the Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube (Dreamcast was excluded, unfortunately). For those who don't know, she is from G4 and Tech TV. This is funny as heck for those who never saw thisLink below...

This is the height of game reviewing...lol!

Wow,

I just re-read my post and I was in rare form. :lol:

Oh, and I like Classic Game Room as well. Him, LukeMorse1, and Happy Console gamer are some good video reviewers IMO.
