And I thought #1 would be IGN's Sonic Unleashed review, where the reviewer flat out says Sonic should remain dead as a franchise and giving it a 4.5, despite the awesome story it had (much better than the crap Pontac and Graff are spitting now), the all-new gorgeous Hedgehog Engine, the improved Boost mechanics from Sonic Rush, the overall great soundtrack, and it all gets overshadowed because the reviewers never tried to understand how the werehog sections of the game work. And this might be one of their lowest points, alongside El Shaddai and God Hand's reviews. Fuck you to hell IGN.

The worst review I have ever seen is the IGN Sonic Unleashed review for Xbox360 and PS3. I understand that Sonic Unleashed may not be every Sonic fan's favorite Sonic game, but the reviewer from IGN who reviewed the game should have been fired for the lousy work he did. He complained about the Werehog to the point where he completely overexaggerated what was even wrong with the game and completely missed everything that actually made Sonic Unleashed, at least in my opinion, one of the best Sonic games of all time. Even if you don't agree with it being one of the best Sonic games, or even a Sonic game worth spending much time mentioning, the IGN reviewer reviewed only near 30% of the game in just a few minutes, and was biased basically the entire time.

Wow number one that's like somebody saying I couldn't defeat the first boss of blood-borne this is coming from someone who has beaten the game and gotten the platinum trophy. I have a feeling that video games journalists don't even know how to play video games correctly or judge them correctly.

Honestly review journalists should be fired and get somebody who knows how to play video games on board. These reviewers know how to play blood-borne and they gave that game high score and that game isn't hard at all why are they giving these games lower scores. Honestly I think some journalists who review games are basing their review more on nostalgia and also these games are huge how do you expect a reviewer to remember the last game they play thousands of games a year even I forget how great the last game was because I have almost 170 games in my collection.

For real. A Top 10 video longer than 10 minutes? Get outta here.

This is why you guys are going to remain IGNorant about all the bad gaming journalism that's out there on YouTube.

I get all my game reviews from Dunkey, though.

Plus that one guy totally banned him for fact checking all the noxious lies in his pre-release video about Mario Kart 8.

one of you is going to accidentally experience this 34 minute masterpiece of nonsensical rambling, over indulgent nintendo fanboyism, incoherence about the concept of a "review" or a "reviewer", extended rant about a game's plot that doesn't have anything to do with reviews, anger about THE MEDIA not UNDERSTANDING KIRBY, proud boasting about a meme from a positive IGN review (THAT'S STILL HORRIBLE) nobody's ever heard of except everyone in the comments, reiteration that at no time is he disagreeing with opinions before proceeding to disagree with nothing but opinions, absolutely fuming dissertation about a no longer existing channel (?) that had the cajones to offensively call Zelda the character useless to the plot AND complain about Twilight Princess' bosses and come groveling to me for acceptance

and i'll embrace you:
 

and you'll look up at me and ask me to endure more of this guys videos to find more of this brilliance and i'll look down and whisper "i'll consider it, for am i not the bore's doxxer?"

BTW these guys are still around. I work for a game company and we are constantly bombarded by NAVGTR mails asking us to submit our games for their annual awards.

Is this what the people want? I was going to change it to a crop of some kind from this Emile Zola vs. the mob themed painting from his J'accuse trial but I left in the https and then later re-considered it and hadn't decided on where exactly I wanted to head with the avatar...he says pretending it's important:


And because this is my own stupid thread and it's related to that case in one of those "benji related of course" ways, this was apparently a popular Dreyfus affair themed board game in turn of the century France:

Oh man, this one.  I forgot about the commentary

[benjipwns]

Did the upcoming movie live up to that example of Capcom quality?!?!?

SAYING THAT IS SOOOOO MORONIC, NO OFFENSE

The fascinating thing about those NAVGTR reviews is that the guy treated all the Street Fighter games as if they were single player titles, said next to nothing about depth (apart from DAN being the best in SFA2 because DEM KICKS, lmao), and only concerned himself with the ENDING CEREMONIES.  I also like that his videos are all about spoiling the endings.

WE DON'T KNOW HOWEVER IF THE GAME USED SILICON GRAPHICS COMPUTERS.
WHY DIDN'T DISNEY INTERACTIVE USE SILICON GRAPHICS COMPUTERS FOR THE ENTIRE GAME?
WERE THEY TOO EXPENSIVE?
I DON'T THINK SO.
COME ON, BIG DISNEY IS ONE OF THE RICHEST CORPORATIONS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.
LET'S GET REAL HERE!

WHY DID THE TOY STORY GAME COME OUT BEFORE THE POCAHONTAS GAME

WHY DID THE TOY STORY GAME COME OUT BEFORE THE POCAHONTAS GAME

IS IT A MARKETING THING BECAUSE POCAHONTAS IS COMING OUT LATER ON HOME VIDEO?

[team filler]

To be fair, the pocahontas game ruled.

  NAVGTR Games are supposed to be art now, yet we still haven't been brave enough to give Laura Croft breast cancer.
