They only get away with it because it's Valve and people assume it's tongue in cheek. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the mod made by teens in 2003 that used "pwned" was doing it as genuinely as anybody ever has.

I think you might be on to something.
Could you maybe work some "Roguelike" or "Soulslike" mechanics into this?

Bats with swords seems like someones weird phobia.
Also fuck this area.

the thing I don't get is that people see that it's just a grind - get enough x to buy y and upgrade to z, then get enough z to buy or upgrade w, but they just keep going and talk about how they played it for 40 hours like it's a good thing. duh, there's a reason those games are addictive
With the BoShock remasters coming lets look at the video review, yes video review of Bioshock 2.

I miss video reviews.

It also is an underused theme in video games. Something video games can learn from board games is to be a little braver with the theme of your game.
As much as I love the old Sim games, HM/SV isn't really my thing, but I'm really glad the dev went buy-to-play on PC rather than what could have been a very lucrative mobile P2W game. Hopefully the success of SV makes other devs and pubs think twice before bastardising another once-great management game for mobile.
Well why would you even shoot hundreds of enemies on a farm? You still have to make a video game at some point.
Unless...

The guest column this week is super good. This line especially is great and is what I always tell myself or other people when they're losing a lot of games and getting frustrated.
Also, getting to play a CvS arcade cabinet? So damn lucky. I wish CvS2 was on fightcade or modern consoles with a good netcode.

They basically repeated the same text from the written reviews so it felt stilted, imo. One of the video features I don't miss especially since the QLs are so much more entertaining.
I don't.
I would suggest a Splatoon like scenario. You have to cover ground with your crops and protect them from the enemy team. You also only get new seeds by harvesting.

I don't think SOTN would be that much fun because at some points you just have to grind in those games. (Also I'm ready to move on to something else)

I will reiterate a sentiment shared earlier in the thread.

Unless you're really bad, no you don't. If vinny can beat Castlevania 1,3, and Rondo of Blood, he won't have much trouble with Igavanias.
Blasphemy
Almost no QL's run for almost two hours.

I don't get the point of video reviews.
yea, I remember Vinny saying having to edit gameplay to match the words was just too much to handle especially with all the other videos they needed to produce.

hey, that 1h45mn "quick" look of Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments convinced me that those games weren't being made solely so that Justin McElroy could have a good laugh at e3.
Thats a really good game.
yup, I platinumed it. can't wait for the next installment.

I always believed you'd do the right thing. The idea of just watching the cutscenes was perverse - Chapter 2 has some of the best parts of the game.
Like I said a few weeks ago, on Wednesday, March 24th (next week), Giant Bomb will have been officially part of CBSi longer than they were a part of Whiskey Media.
I guess Patrick's thinking "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em".

Almost as rage inducing as Last Cave in Cave Story. The fact it comes between a boss rush and fucking clocktower puts it above tho.

Jeff played Quantum Break yesterday but he can't say shit about it which is a shame because of embargo. Mixlr confirmations, I guess he's going to review the game.
The embargo still ends well before the game is out. This isn't a situation where they're trying to hid impressions.
Can't forget Mary. She deserves to jump aboard as well.
Fuck that. The Blood Stained Sanctuary was bad enough already.

Yeah, I know. Remedy are always good in my book but I just wish we would be done with this pre-release restrictions so we could hear some of the juicy details about a game and impressions.
Either way, I'm there day 1 for whatever Remedy puts out.
But we need the field reporting on things like the Coleco Chameleon he just stumbled into
