This ILM is the first time their video player has failed on me. Heard a lot of complaints in this thread before, but for me this is the first time I had to change to Youtube and play the video from there.

Still good week ahead it looks like!
 
This so-called Jurassic Lark thing is only for premium members? Hope they give some proper time to the first Sega Genesis game.

So many good childhood memories playing that game. Probably doesn't hold up now but I'll enjoy it through my rose-tinted nostalgia goggles.

From what I remember it's a frustrating and unforgiving platformer. Still not as frustrating as its sequel.
 
Unprofessional Fridays will just be Jeff reading the Space Jam book and the rest of the guys pointing out the differences from the movie. Jordan pushed off and everyone knows it!
 
Is it just me or is Jeff's beard the Assassins Creed logo?

After the dramatic triumph of Ninja Theory's last game, Enslaved, it shouldn't surprise you that I'm back to devote another paragraph to the characters' performances in this game, which do so much to sell what, again, probably should have been a complete joke of a storyline.

Oh Brad *laugh track, credits*

Bringin' the puppy adoration to Gamespy. I expect articles on puppies.

Congrats, Rorie! I missed you. ;__;

And he makes a great foil for his brother Vergil, who's more of an uppity, refined ideologue fighting the good fight against the demons. Dante talks a constant stream of shit to Vergil and just about anyone else who gets in his way, and there's something uncomfortable and a little dissonant about a 50-foot ancient grub-demon screeching "FUCK YOOOOOUUUUU!!!" right back at him. The best sort of dumb fun is the kind that knows how dumb it is, and I consistently got the sense from Devil May Cry knew that the entire time I was playing it.
Bradley-kun... I expect a detailed literary analysis of DmC's narrative and better expansion on how Vergil and Dante are each other's foils in this version of the tale.

I know you could do it with A+ effort.
 
I never understood the love affair with Enslaved story or performances.

I mean, different opinions and all that, but it seemed not at all well-written to me. It feels like it got an A for effort.
 
Congrats Rorie!!!!


And Yeah Brad.... that guy should go work for game informer if he likes using the same score for every game.

Brad reviews for me at least have become kind of useless since he gives almost everything 5 stars. It just doesnt help me buy anything anymore when everything is 5 star awesomeness.

He should try use more of the scale because all of his 5 star games are not equal.
 
Not sure where Brad got the idea DMC was a nearly forgotten franchise from, unless that was meant as a purely personal opinion. The previous entry was the best selling game in the series history, and while the controversial reboot has been getting constant media coverage for years, Dante and Vergil have been in two MvC games, and an HD collection of the PS2 games was released.

Except for Fable: The Journey. And Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor. And Resident Evil 6. And New Super Mario Bros. U. And Deadlight. And Hyrbid. And...
