Game looks fucking gorgeous I'll give it that much. This is on my play list after I finish Half Life 2.

Halo 2
Half Life 2
Metroid Prime 2

Playing all three in a row single player one after another. First person overload! Hmm sounds like a good comparison thread to create down the road...

If anything people should watch this for comedic value! :lol

It sounds like Fran is reading everything off of a script while random gameplay shots are being fired onscreen for your viewing pleasure! :lol

 

[Tenguman]

extremely well produced video-review. I wouldn't watch it since it contains some spoilers of the locals.

I don't agree with the multiplayer part of the review though. Having played it, it's generally fun and does have more depth than they give it credit.

Can not be worse than Shoemaker and his monotone voice.

 

[Mrbob]

I'm not saying it's a bad video review. He got better as the review goes on.

Oh and credit for ripping on the multiplayer mode! :lol

 

[Kon Tiki]

I was talking about delivery.

No kidding. Watch the gamespot review and behold the shit that is Shoemaker's video review.

?? Would you rather see fran's face or gameplay of the game he's reviewing?

 

[Mrbob]

:lol Holy crap I just watched the free steam of the gspot MP2:E Video Review! I take back anything I said about Frans video review! :lol

Nothing wrong with GS's video review. They arent meant to be wacky presenters or anything where what they say doesnt matter.

At least get a little excited over the game. The way he talks about the game in the video review it sounds like he drew the short straw and was forced to do this review.

 

[Deg]

I dont get what makes it funny. Its not like he's suppossed to act like Reggie or someone.

 

[Mrbob]

What makes it funny is that the guy is glowing about the game but the tone he says it in makes it sound like it is forced and he doesn't give two shits about MP2:E.

I have to agree..

I don't know if I could muster much enthusiasm to video review even a game I thought to be the best of all time. Some people just aren't that energetic.

 

[Code_Link]

Looks freaking brilliant.

 

[Deg]

i need to see. must. wait.

Watched this earlier. I thought this one was extremely well planned and edited. Well spoken throughout and edited so relevant things are shown on screen without spoiling gameplay/story elements. Personally I can see what he's saying about Multiplayer at the end there (how he'd of preferred more rooms, or morph ball puzzle minigames) but I think its a simple but good application to get people interested in Metroid. If someone likes it they'll probably have an interest in the single player, because it has so much more depth. They can always develop the idea in future as well. It has great potential.
