I always like those threads cause it's funny to see who people list as alternatives to these mean ol' bad man comedians with wrongthink jokes.

In this one I've seen both Jim Norton and Louis CK. ??? Do these people actually listen to those dudes or are they just names they saw once on the internet?

Definitely the latter.

When it comes to actual hacks that got famous doing really shitty commentary on multiple topics:

Larry The Cable Guy
Carlos Mencia
Jeff Dunham
Katt Williams (dude is so annoying that he might not even fit that criteria)

These comedians are legit trash and the commentary they provide sucks.

Weebs are so fucking annoying. It's like they are so goddamn offended that a US release of something only has an English voice option. That they would rather turn off voices(OMG I don't even want to hear battle voices in English the horror!) and feel relaived like they just fought cancer and won at the fact. We're getting an obscure Japanese game and probably with excellent packaging and care from Xseed and you still feel the need to bitch? Go fuck yourself honestly.

I mean I get the desire to watch something in it's native tongue. Actually, eh anime and video games have never botherd me. If only because the character's aren't real. A life action movie? Nope, that's gotta be subtitled, but something with cartoon characters speaking? I honestly don't care if it's dubbed and honestly most dubs are fine these days.

To be fair, more and more JP games, notably rpgs, AREN'T being translated anymore. The gravy train days are over.

If we send this to the West, it might sell an additional 5000 copies. If we translate it, it might sell an additional 5500 copies!

A lot of the stuff not being brought over usually aren't that high budget or anything, it's just the sheer amount of text required to translate. DQ7 is monstrous and it's not worth the investment to bring something over with such small returns. If it could guarantee that jrpg average seller amount of like 200k, maybe, but previous DQ remakes bombed, so I really hope people who want DQ7 bought the games on mobile and ds or else they're not helping.

Wow, what an ungrateful piece of shit. It's bad enough JRPG games barely get localized these days. :-\

Turok is a fun game to borrow or pay $3 for, play once, and then never play again.

Compared to what came out the fall of 2007 or later in 2008 though, it was prettay mediocre. Why would someone shell out $60 for Turok when they could be playing Halo 3, CoD4, and then GTA IV a couple of months later?

We wait for E3 all year and yet people complain about how long the conferences are, jeez. I'd happily sit through a longer one.

E3 at the very least has been shitty since 2008/2009. Anything that's popular or didn't bomb, expect sequels of varying quality. New game unveiled with very little gameplay footage? Chances are it'll be underwhelming, be cancelled, or end up good.

Who can forget classic moments last year like EA showing devs talking about working on games with snippets of game design thrown in. Or Ubisoft showcasing CG trailers and story trailers (Rainbow Six Siege was pretty awesome though). Kojima makes a great trailer for MGS (not happening this time around though.)

Bethesda will have a good conference, hard to fuck up their own shit.

Sony's major problem is explaining shit no one cares about/hardware that isn't focused on games and sale/data. That's good for some journalists, but a lot of people at E3 are there to report on games, stupid. The faster you get to those, the better for them and the internet at large. Want to discuss your sales and hardware of tangentially game-related things? Do it at CES or during your investment calls.

I can't wait for the next Wonderbook 10minute demo they're going to focus on instead of making a 20 minute Uncharted trailer or some other thing to fill that time.

Yeah I could'nt pull of the bald look and I will probably lose my hair anyway. As much as I hate my hair I don't want to lose it, but I'm screwed anyway.

But yeah I don't even know why people want an order sequel. The gameplay was so generic no doubt it's place will be filled by plenty of better third person shooters this gen. It's story was terrible so it dosen't even have that to stand on. It really just has graphics and art. At that point, just have them make something else.

This is the first gen where I feel complete apathy for most non indie games being released. And its not like I've stopped enjoying games. I've found more enjoyment in downloading free indie games and trying random shit than playing newer games on a friend's Xbone.

Its actually fantastic that the previous gen lasted so long, so many games are dirt cheap.

Don't mean to pull a Creepy Stalker here, but since the LinkedIn is well, linked on the Kickstarter page. Just going to pull shit from there.
Bish's first listed job is with EA in 1995.
Right after graduating from Fraser University, attended 1991-1995. Hehe, I wasn't even born when he started there.

Starting Uni at age 18 would put a current age of maybe 42.
