    Professional movie critics don't get in front of a camera and summarize the entire movie while watching clips of it, silly!

    They're somethin' else.
    That's not an internet person. That's just some guy throwing around the phrase left wing and knowing fuck all of what it means.

    He is on the internet, and he is a person. He is an internet person.

    The reviews read as if the writer wants to be seen as an intellectual by but somehow fails to do so. For that I understand the rage targeted at it.

    Hey, I made a big one of those before on IJBM that was well-thought out with logical arguments, and everyone just called me an internet tough guy and and hoped I got banned, basically just attacking me instead addressing any points I made.

    TGWTG fanboys can't even handle constructive criticism. I'm not really shocked though, since TGWTG can't handle it either.

    Also how the hell do I quote? I haven't been here in like a year and I totally forgot.

    Why the hell did you randomly use my thread to bring up bygone drama?

    Bickle!

    Mah nigga!

    Why the hell did you randomly use my thread to bring up bygone drama? - Why not? Ain't like I got anything better to do with my free afternoon.

    And what up, Schtiz? Diggin' the Splatterhouse avatar, I was actually considering switching to one myself but I figured it'd be weird considering my name and all.

    Thanks! Glad to see someone here's played some of the games in the series. What did you think of the 2010 remake?

  • TravisBickleTravisBickle
    Best of the series I think, actually. I was totally blown away by it. So many great nods to the classics and retro horror films in the visuals, a fucking killer soundtrack by Howard Drossin, and an honestly way better plot than I (or anyone) expected it to have. A damn shame that we'll probably never get a sequel, but Splatterhouse fans never give up hope. It took almost 20 years to get Splatterhouse 2010, what's 20 more, right?

    Right. Fuck those review sites, though. This game was God Hand for the horror crowd. Namco losing all hope for this series is a bit of a dick move, but at least they're no Capcom at the moment.

  • TravisBickleTravisBickle
    The worst thing is that they're complaining about glitches in reviews that never actually show up in the game because Namco sent out bugged copies for review. feels bad man
  • SchitzoSchitzo

    Basic reviews both professional and amateur:

    -God of War is the only game in its genre i've ever played


    -OMG I can count the polygons i'm blind!!


    -I'm special, and I have the priviledge to be irrevocably butthurt by load times and difficulty. Never mind that I could just improve in the game. No, this game has to just never have a learning curve.

  • TravisBickleTravisBickle
    Pretty much. The only accurate reviews come out like two+ months after a game is out, once all the cheques have cleared.
