Listening to his podcasts,
-He brings up that he's playing MGS4
-He doesn't rag on the competition, and often compliments them.
i know he did that tech comparison a while ago, but I still like his podcast better than something like 1upyours.
-
Haha, what is he gonna do? Do you really expect him to say "Well, I didnt like MGS4. It wasnt very good."
-
No he's pretty normal, at least in the video audio stuff
-
dumb name
-
You mean other than being lord of the xfags?
-
here we go
-
He's not?
-
rtf op
-
He's too senile to be lord of anything
-
rich text format
-
rtf op
I did, and??? Did he alienate his legion by playing MGS4 and has lost title of lord?
-
Read the fucking
Zero Hero the magic clue is to respond with points that oppose what mojo already said or provide him with new information that could alter his opinion. "He gives the competition a fair shake" -> "But he's a taco" doesn't really jive.

MGS4 is shit, I'd strip him of his title for complimenting it.

Take some of your own "advice" to me and lighten up. I didn't call him a taco, just the lord of them.
-
Thats kinda a compliment, I mean, its not like Zero is lord of the sfags or nfags
-
Wasn't he the dude that was basically caught with a carrot in his ass regarding the 360 launching in two configurations? If so, that'd then be the same dude who talked high and mighty about the importance of HDD in a console, only to change his tune right when the announcement of Core and Premium was made.

Yep, I'm just the lesser peon unfortunately. :-\

Major Nelson PR person <<<< Major Nelson on his podcast.
Right, but knowing the events of the above, I'd imagine it could be hard to listen to anything that he says to say, on a podcast or otherwise. Just saying, that might be why people "hate" him.

Try plumber

His podcast is ok. Only listened to it once or twice. Too promotional if you ask me.
I think he's good at what he does though. Could be some other guy who's not as skilled.

With some hard work, maybe I can reach your title of bell ringer. :P

Only off thing about him is that he comes off a tad flamboyant, which is odd considering the main 360 user base.
-
because "Major Nelson" is not a real person, he's a corporate PR construct
-
Like that movie Simon
-
Major Nelson never updates his site with XBL stuff either. The stuff that matters. Lost Odyssey DLC? Nope. Mission Mode? Nope.

People hate him because he's a vocal MS employee.
But I think Sony needs someone like him. He twitters everything, updates with what content is on Live, talsk about features coming in future MS updates, etc.
You don't go to him for reviews on Xbox games, and he doesn't really do that either.
the PSblog and podcasts like the full moon show pretty much fill that role.

He's pretty nice, though. We got to eat with him at GDC.

Yeah, I think he's nice, too. A little dorky, but that's something to be appreciated as well; he's not overly self-conscious. I ran into him at GDC on his way to the airport, and he seemed genuinely surprised (and a little happy) to be recognized.

man i want a hoodie that says xbox 360 on it

:lol The latter, sadly. I'm just lucky there was a P-A character that looks like me; it's from the strip where two guys walk in, then out of a store with a shiny new 360 while everyone freezes in line waiting in line for a PS3.

As in me and my elite posse. You know, the xbox clique.
