Yeah, I doubt that's him. GameSpot uses a general "Gamespotting" account, I think.

Don't ruin the funny with your facts!

We're just providing some real talk. Shane is a cigarillo either way. Ryan Davis is hotter, and a better reviewer.
I have three accounts too, just to access EU and JP marketplaces. I use my JP account to play XBLA demos. Fuck having zeroes on my card.
-
still, it's clear he doesn't play the 360 at all when he has personal gaming time.
-
He would rather play MP3 than Bioshock. taco. MP3 is a good game but come the fuk on! Bioshock's a top3 GOTY candidate. You shouldn't be an executive editor of EGM if you won't even give Bioshock a try.
-
Shane is such a fucking douche when it comes to talking about the 360 period. His Nintendo and Sony love wouldn't be so annoying if he didn't go around flaunting his uber knowledge of obscure gaming lore.
I didn't know him all that well in college...but he was an idiot at parties...but then again, so are alot of people.
-
^are you two sure. I'm pretty sure he doesn't like nintendo. He said MP3 was all right but that it had problems while the other reviewer was orgasming on it. Saying you like MP3 isn't comparable to saying Genji 2 is good.

He does the whole system war thing pretty well while blindly cheering for Sony...but is definitely a Nintendo fan first and foremost. Just look at him >:(

I haven't seen anything to show him as a nintendo fan. He's more messed up in his sony opinions anyways (I mean seriously).

I use to think he was just playing off of Luke Smith and merely joking....
-
why is he called "the mangod" dare i ask
-
It's a GAF meme, I'm not even sure why he got that nickname.

Luke is pretty likable, Shane is just scary.

Not sure why but the Sony fans sure treat him like one. Even someone as levelheaded as Y2KEV is a fan of him.
-
gaf sure is distinguished mentally-challenged
-
It came from GAF and I know by who but I can't remember the name off hand plus I can't access the search function over there 'cause I'm banned. All I can recall is that he had a dancing milk carton for an avatar.
*hears that i-Pod nano commercial playing on the TV for the 500th time in like two days*
Holy crap Apple is going to beat that Feist song into my head whether I like it or not.
-

if i recall correctly, i'm not sure though, they called him "mangod" because he once said in one of the EGM/1up yours podcast that we'll see many PS3 games that will show the real power of the console or something like that, not sure though as i said, so after kz2 was shown last E3, sonybots gaffers have changed their avatars into helghasts w/ Shane Academy written below it, and MANGOD avatars.
also, if i recall correctly, bud did put an avatar of N'GAI TRAOL with "MANGOD" written on it. bud is an N'gai fanboy =P

No, it was......god damnit....old what's-his-name over at GAF saying that Shane was "an Adonis sent by the gods" and the people at the EGM podcast picked it up and mentioned it on their show.

he's basically Time's videogame person. he basically copies and pastes what other sites say and I don't think he's ever given an exclusive on something.

The Milkman? That's the only guy I know that has the carton of dancing milk for his avatar.

It was Brodieman TTR and it looks like he changed his avatar to this: (http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z125/BrodiemanTTR/mggimped.gif) It used to be the dancing milk carton.
Here's the thread where I pointed out his freakish behavior (you can also see the quote that spawned this whole "mangod" bullshit). (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6683989#post6683989) Of course this is also when it was uncommon. Now it seems like everyone over there wants to smoke his cock.

Shane is more sony fanboy than nintendo.

Y2Kev is levelheaded? :-P

Y2kev is a pretty cool guy to talk games with. He's pretty knowledgeble about games on every system. The Shane love is weird though. I just don't understand those Shane fans. Their hatred of most other people at 1up/EGM is also pretty scary.

Yeah, it's too bad there aren't more people like him over there at GAF. The hardcore 360 people like Ghaleon, m0rphix, and up until recently Speevy are too freakin' swarmy for my tastes. Everytime they post it feels like they're trying to sell me a used car. They don't seem very genuine or knowledgable about anything videogame related outside of the Xbox. The hardcore PS3 fans are absolutely fucking caustic and way too out of control for me to even begin to relate to. Everything is a conspiracy, people writing insane blogs, and Shane, a guy that sounds like another PR mouth piece, is their born again leader. Just way too creepy. And the Nintendo guys.....well they're still the same nut jobs they've always been. Seriously discussing if angry Mario could beat up some other cartoon character or masturbating over a sales chart.....that's just not for me.
It's like there's almost no happy medium over there.
-
WTF's up with Speevy? Is he trying to be a joke character? Now instead of defending the Xbox, all he does is make ridiculously optimistic predictions about the PS3's future.
The Nintendo/Xbox fans annoy me pretty much for the same reasons that you mentioned. They're just too over the top fanboyish. OTOH, the Sony fans annoy me because they always pretend to be unbiased gamers even though it's obvious that they really only care about Sony hardware and games. Guys like Altogetherandrews, Bebpo, and dozens more Sony fans seemingly buy non-Sony hardware just to talk about how much superior their Sony sytems are. They're never enthusiastic about any game that is non-exclusive to Sony yet they would angrily talk about how they own a 360 or WII if someone calls them a Sony fanboy. The Ninthings and Xbots at least own up to what they are.

Well Speevy bought a PS3 and saw the light evidently. I don't think he posts there anymore since they banned him over that incident about his mom having cancer. That was really fucked up imo.

I wasn't aware of that. What happened? Weren't you also banned recently?

Speevy posted in the Warhawk thread that he wouldn't be able to play anymore due to his mom's recent diagnosis with cancer and asked to be taken off their clan list. (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=181848&page=155) He was then banned and posted this in IRC:
14:39] * Speevy ([edited]) has joined #[edited]
[14:40] <Speevy> I wasn't complaining about my member status in any thread, and I resent the implication. My mother was just diagnosed with cancer, and I was trying to explain to the group why I was posting about it in there, and why I wouldn't be on the Warhawk clan anymore. My banning has to be one of the most callous and heartless thing I've ever seen done by a forum moderator, and I won't be back.
[14:40] * Speevy ([edited]) Quit (Quit: )
He hasn't been back since.
And yeah, I was banned for making some lame ass joke about Dynasty Warriors but I'm back now.
-
Speevy was alright in my book, he is a good poster in my eyes, well at least when he wasn't a joke character for Sony.
and it's really sad that he got banned for saying his mother was diagnosed with cancer (may she get better soon) and that he can't continue in the warhawk clan anymore, seriously that was fucked up.
-
a mod banned him since his reason for not being in a clan anymore was his mother's cancer?
-
GAF's mods are awesome. ::)
-

That what happened, it's either the mod thought of it as a joke from Speevy's part or there is some serious shit happened that we know nothing about.
-
It looks like Speevy got banned because of his offhand remark about his inability to create new threads. Of course, it doesn't make the ban any less mean.
-
Wow, that's really coldhearted what happened to Speevy... Speevy was a cool guy, if a bit on the fanboyish side. But he likes Little Nemo so that's cool in my book. And hfs at Shane's gamerscore, and I thought *I* had a low gamerscore :P

That's him alright. Ferricide and I played Phantasy Star Universe with him until we all decided the game sucked butt grapes. He was cool to play with, but a total turd when it came to setting the game to divy up items collected. He didn't want to share items and wanted old school PSO each man/she-bot for himself. He'll play 360 games on debugs and such at work without logging into his gamertag, but yeah PSU was the last game he really played on 360.
-

Yep, but don't tell TVC that. He will try to spin it into something it is not.

That's not the story I heard, but meh. I admit I like the particular mod more than I ever liked Speevy.
-
Don't you hang out in IRC? Do not believe what they say. Regardless if you don't like Speevy, the reasoning behind the person's actions is still pretty warped.
-
If someone's Mom having cancer and their backing out of a fucking videogame clan over it is even partially the reason he got banned, even one little bit, that makes me want to stomp the person who did the banning right across the face. That's completely insane. Videogame fanatics creep me the fuck out, and I think 90% of them ought to be forcibly sterilized to prevent the spreading of their diseased genes.
-
i liked speevy. he was an obvious fanboy (360 and/or ps3) but he was pretty funny. the ban is weird.
i hope his mom gets well. :(

For the record, that's not what he was banned for. That's just what he thinks he was banned for, for whatever reason.
Note that yes, what he was banned for was completely distinguished mentally-challenged, but not that distinguished mentally-challenged.
