I agree that complaining about standard shooter tropes is somewhat silly, but your cry of "Who cares if a game is innovative!?" is fucking stupid. Without innovation, genres become stale. And when they become stale, they are no longer fun. Hence why we care about innovation.
And your claim that video games have never reached the point where they can compare to films shows how sophomoric you are when it comes to video games as a storytelling medium.

Comment by LANGsTON7056 on September 17, 2011 at 6:11pm I can't wait for the skyrim review
"Yeah, I got to level 2, and I just couldn't get past it..it was just too big...I mean who has that time...and it's just so god forsaking rich..but who does side quests, that's for nerds and it isn't worth exploring if it isn't shoved in my face...not enough zombies, not enough guns...it looks good..but I mean it's for nerds, Granted I was drunk, but I got the gist of it, some ole' bullshit..."

@ boblebob
No there isn't. Right now I think the crew said they would be working on another review we did. Unless there is huge demand for this particular review to be animated I doubt it's gonna happen

..........................Okay, not that it really matters or that anyone cares, but whatever.

Comment by Markunator on September 17, 2011 at 3:57pm Hey, guys! Markus from Sweden here again!
I have to be honest: I'm once again getting a bit tired of hearing you complain about shooters. I still don't know what the hell you want out of them. Hearing Korey describing two of the weapons in the game as a shotgun and a sniper rifle as something detrimental was downright painful. Yeah, it's a shooter. It kinda makes sense for those weapons to be there. There's a shotgun in Half-Life 2 as well, but I don't hear anyone complaining about that, because that game can't be criticized. Why do you think that every game needs to be innovative? What makes the gameplay here so weak?! I don't get it! It has a health bar and the ability to carry more than two weapons, isn't that innovative when compared to most shooters today?
Who cares if a game is innovative? Who cares if it's similar to other games of the same fucking genre? Is it fun? Is it entertaining? Does it make you feel anything? Yeah, I know that you said that this game was indeed fun, but seriously, this particular nitpick is really starting to piss me off.Why can't we just accept that we have reached a point in history where literally everything has been done before, and we're just tweaking things now? If something isn't broken, why try to fix it?
I'm telling you: if you guys deem Battlefield 3 to be an only rental-worthy game because its story might be weak, then I think I might be done with your videogame reviews, permanently.
Also, 95 % of videogame stories aren't really good, and those that are, cannot match up to the stories of most great movies. Just putting it out there. Videogames have always been crippled when it comes to storytelling.
