I'm in for surprises

listen to the mad man
I don't have a problem with someone using a review to make a broader comment about an industry trend, positive or negative. I have no problem with someone giving a flawed but refreshing game a better score than a well-rounded piece of schlock. That approach to reviewing might not be valuable to all readers as a buyer's guide, but from a longer-term point of view and a deeper engagement with the game and gaming. *shrugs*

We have all been talking about the Dolphin version the whole time, not the actual Wii version.
Well they did just put up a blog post with the Halloween comic and say "Something is coming, everybody. Not "right now" coming but you know, we're working on it." in the blog post.
I didn't even notice load times on the PC version.
Maybe. The non-weekly Humble bundles sometimes skip a few weeks.
Totally agreed. I think there is this really nasty trend of reviewers being overly negative as a means to boost their own ego. It's like... who can be the most angry video game nerd of all?
It's really similar to competing stand up comedians who are fighting over the most cynical comic prize.
I recall Sterling's RE6 review, and it seemed less about the game than Sterling just wanking himself off. Or not. http://www.destructoid.com/review-resident-evil-6-235326.phtml
And I didn't even like RE6 compared to the previous two. Beat it twice for the sake of coop.

But you see, this is the season finale.
Yeah, if he was consistent in his review criteria, that would be fine, but every now and again he seems to try and push his values through a review, like the bureau (For those wondering, he disliked the mainstream-isation) and Beyond(Thinks david cage talks a lot of shite, and can't write well enough to make films, which keeps cage in the video game business) and now Batman (lack of originality/ rehashing for profit is killing industry).
This would be fair enough, but it skews his consistency, and makes it difficult to gauge his reviews against those reviews where a strong reaction isn't evoked in him. You would think Jimquisitions/opinion pieces would be enough to convey this message.
I would suggest that he adjust all of his future reviews to this scale of his, but then how would he enrage people on forums.
This is what I wanted to say but more eloquently and concisely.
Oh I love me some 90s rpgs. Though I was an snes kid and only had access to that lot :3
"radical"? Wat.
woo and indeed hoo

i no rite "definitive version" has no place in anything when it is a matter of subjective taste.
I had typed more but realised that I didn't want to encourage a system warz discussion. We've got the rest of Gaming for that :/.
I used to think that too :/.
Save yourself. It's not too late. It's too late for me but you can save yourself.
Go. GO!
The only better thing you guys have is the Reina Africana dessert. I'd kill for that one to be sold here.
Think I'm gonna go and steal the factory...
He is high throughout his whole visit.

Why, is it well above sea level?
Perhaps he means radical as in rad as in good. You know, how kids misuse words just to annoy and make themselves unintelligible to adults.
only available in Uruguay
Halo news delayed until 2014.

I need to try this some time. I'll drink some mate and curse serious sam 3.
my alter ego will be called eveningtaxi
What am i reading.
the argie locust will take over everything
you have been warned
using the verb drink on mate feels so weird
by "lag" you mean fps and yeah, I experienced the converse of this when I played gta5 on ps3.
I got used to it though. Game is still good but would be fucking glorious on pc.

Suarez's hat-trick the other day suggests otherwise!
Have we been moved to Community yet?
Back on track: replaying Arkham Asylum because I'm something of a slattern for Steam achievements - so much so I haven't played Arkham City yet, because I've been waiting (and waiting) to tackle this with-achievements re-run first. So much Batman, so good. Will wait for the Origins GOTY edition, though, I think.
lol I dunno how would I say it anyways
it just feels weird
as people other than argies drinking mate does

Anybody seen if the SteamDB has been updated enough to hint at Halloween sales? Would be great.
Chivito really is class, he's right about that.

If its not hockey its not a hat trick
It's cute you try to claim full jurisdiction of a phrase we've been using in cricket for over a hundred years.
Nothing we didn't already know (being the Spiral Spooktacular for Dino Horde)

Everything seems to point towards a 3 day Halloween sale that starts tomorrow.
