Post by: Sharky on June 10, 2011, 10:53:07 pm
That gave Sonic Colours a low score:

Yes. Though I agree that Zelda fans whine a ton. That is the dude that hated on The Colors of Sonic Wii game.

Oh what ever point he is making may well be right, I couldn't hear what he was saying over how absolutely dreadful he is. In every single way, he irritates me.

Surprisingly it has nothing to do with his weight.

People who make whole videos complaining about whole fanbases are the scourge of the Internet.

Like, it bugs him so much that potentially dozens of The Legend of Zelda fans are not happy with how Skyward Sword is turning out that he needs to dress up in "Cool" attire and make his own show complaining that these people do not enjoy what they have seen so far? Honestly, as a big fan of the series myself I am fairly annoyed with how it is turning out, but I am not going to be making a video about why people should not like it. Actually I am kind of surprised some people are even upset with the game, I thought everyone loved how 3D Zelda games are pretty much all the same.

What that means to me is this guy searches all over the damn net just looking for negative responses on games and makes fun of those people or whatever. What a loser...

Anyways, Sonic Colors is not that good anyways.  :afroman:

This guy proves what is wrong in gaming journalism. And the use of Metacritic in general too.

Mostly annoys me when people are talking about certain kinds of fans, yet they sum an ENITRE fanbase.

Well, there's always gonna be people that will or won't like something. However, I think I noticed more positivity about it after the E3 trailer, some even comparing the art style to a Ghibli film.

I actually wanted to get a pair of mirrorshades at one point, but this guy makes them look so bad.

Though, a big online portion of Zelda fans do whine a ton. Being annoying doesn't change that.

I do remember once how I commented that I thought Wind Waker was the best Zelda game I played and I immediately got bombarded by people who said it sucked and Ocarina of Time is the best. =P

Do note that his videos aren't really meant to be taken seriously. Or at least, maybe his points are, but the character isn't. He makes it extra obvious in the videos he makes for The Escapist: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/ ...

So could someone post his Sonic Colors review here...


... I don't want to search for it.

Damn it, this is text.

I thought he made the video review in his "asshole" persona!

...and his review sucks I was looking forward to some good Sonic bashing, but his bashing is as bad as his perception of Colors Level layout.

This rant was the like the most standards of rants. It's what you see everyday on comments and Forums "If you don't like it don't buy it!","It pisses me off!". Who the hell is he trying to prove...

Of course not. It was not even a bad game at all, just not the unarguably wonderful title the series needs. Though, even if the full zone list fails to impress I honestly think Generations might just be that game.

In any event, the guy with the girl name who gave Sonic Unleashed a worse score than 06 and never even beat half of either left IGN.

Sonic 4 is ranked higher than Sonic 1.

What a horrible list! Spin-off titles like Tennis and Mean Bean should never be in a Sonic top ten because they ain't Sonic games! If they don't follow the gameplay rules and mechanics of a Sonic game, then they're not a Sonic game. They're spin-offs featuring Sonic in another genre. Admittedly, SST and Mean Bean are good games but they hardly classify as Sonic games. They're closer to being Virtua Tennis and Puyo Puyo titles respectively.

Not a single 3D title on the list? 8 of the 10 titles are 2D Sonic games, so the dumbfuck might as well just replaced SST and Mean Bean with two 2D Sonic games and called it his top ten 2D Sonic games list.

Only thing I agree with are most of his comments on Sonic 4. Though I would swap Sonic 1 and Sonic 4 and wouldn't include Colors DS because I've never played it.

It's quite clear he doesn't like any of them, like a fair amount of the internet.

What a fucking awful idea. Sonic R did just this and it controlled like shit.

Or how about picking up the WiiS2 version of Unleashed. Navigating the temples are near impossible thanks to Sonic's car like controls.

Sterling's readers are pretty stupid too. "I like this idea!", "this idea makes sense!", "why hasn't this been thought of before?"

Again, fucking stupid.

I checked out some this guy's videos on The Escapist to see what was so special about him, and while I thought he occasionally makes some good points it's buried underneath a personality that I don't like in the slightest. He just comes off as a un-funny, potty-mouthed jerk.
