And all these years of corporate health / gym plans went to waste ;P
Btw. I was disappointed by the GOW: Ultimate Edition being just the GOW1 remaster, and Windows 10 selling point. Anything other than Gears Trilogy Remastered for PC is a big yawn for me: (

Watched all of the Bethesda E3 video last night. GOD DAMN. This has to the best year ever for game announcements. Dark Souls 3, Deus Ex, Doom 4, Fallout 4, Final Fantasy 7 Remake (hope it get's a PC port), Dishonored 2, XCOM 2. I must have died and gone to heaven, as I can't recall SO MANY good games being announced. Ever (in a year).
Wont be leaving my room for the next 2 years :).

A friendly reminder to not get on the hype train (or at least buy the cheapest ticket):

OK, I'm not in tune with Nintendo or their products much at all anymore, but this looks really freaking cool. I would consider buying a Wii U just for this:

I feel like I've seen the Battle of Hoth somewhere before. And the Battle of Endor. I guess we haven't had a fight on Tatooine yet. Was anyone else....kinda underwhelmed by Battlefront?

Summary of video:- 10 minutes of prattling on about the bloody obvious. "E3 is a giant commercial and some of the content is manipulative", no shit.
As for his plea at the end for people to stop watching E3 coverage? Fuck off, I'll spend my free time how I want to.

If someone wants to take up my time with corporate drivel I better get paid for it. Then again sending companies cash in order to advertise their products for them is somehow a thing too. Sure, here's $30 for a t-shirt advertising your band/game/movie/softdrink, and have another $50 for some shitty figurine some chick in China assembled for 40 cents.
I can't believe adblock missed this banner on the website I'm using to stream this 7 hour Square Enix infomercial.

Indeed. Every time I see some overly negative guy [on youtube, mostly] talking about games (though you could extend it to other topics as well) in a negative fashion I get annoyed, if it's not actually witty and/or funny (but those 2 things have a natural tendency to go together), but rather being negative mostly for the sake of being negative, like the twat in that video. And the self-righteous suggestion to not watch E3 - gtfo and stop making videos.
Then again, I am neither paid to do it, nor do I consider myself their target audience.

Considering how many people buy into it, the obvious needs to be pointed out every once in a while, and who's better to do it than a game journalist with an actual journalism degree?

Where was he being negative just for the sake of it? For example, do you really think Hololens works as it was advertised? These things need to be pointed out.
We need more people making these videos and pointing out industry lies, not less. Go watch some of his other stuff. It's some of the best reasoned stuff out there alongside with content from people like Shamus Young and Christopher Franklin AKA Campster.
