Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Chrono.]

I definitely never liked AngryJoe too much but I will say that he does do his name justice.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Getting real sick of gamers holding grudges towards companies.

They're not trusting them ever again and making them the butt of literally everything that comes out of their mouth.

 

[Schnee117]

Joe should probably think about Cherry Picking as a side job considering his section on the REQ system in Halo 5.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I definitely never liked AngryJoe too much but I will say that he does do his name justice.

I think it's funny how he gets angry about copyright strikes that can be worked around to the point he boycotts the company, or like in this case, called the entire Halo fanbase idiots and crybabies because Joe got facts wrong and got called out. Then MGSV cuts some of the story 'It's a bit of a shame but I can look past it' ****ing what?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Is Mario maker not a game Nintendo goes after? Because it's all over the YouTubes but no crazy copyright BS that angry Joe goes on about

 

[~Skelly~]

So has anybody here seen the Amanda Show?

"Bring in the dancing lobsters!"

There's not trusting them again and making them the butt of literally everything that comes out of their mouth.

I hate it when people get so attached to companies and act like it's their best friend or family memebr and feel betrayed when they do something they don't like.

I'm a fan of Xbox, Nintendo and Sony, I have a 3DS, Vita and 360. I hold no affiliation towards any of those company because what they do is a business and they don't rarely care about me but the money I hold.

All I ask is for a quality product and those guys deliver.

Exactly. Not to mention there are LP'ers who don't get copyright strikes, when they do, they reupload after some editting. Joe? 'I will never do a Nintendo video again' even though his Wii U was given to him. 'Wii U don't interest me. Bayonetta 2 is Wii U exclusive? I wanted that! weh weh' Crybaby Joe is more fitting. Don't think he even tweeted about Iwata

 

[Swamp Sensei]

I just saw the comments for the review.

Holy ****.

I thought Nintendo fans were bad. Metroid Prime: Federation Force was at least met with a lot of "let's give it a shot."

They're saying its the death of Halo. Some saying gaming is dead.


Angry Joe, stop being so angry, it's contagious.

 

[AreJay25]

I enjoy some of Joe's reviews.

But he definitely has a tendency of blowing things out of proportion. This is one of those times.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Halo is selling well, so the series ain't dying anytime soon

The worst part is that with Fed Force, it got negative reception from fans for not meeting expectations for a Metroid game, especially as the Metroid fanbase was still pissed at Other M. Here however, people are angry at a game because a guy they like doesn't like it despite how said guy outright got things wrong. I've heard of Halo 5's microtransactions, but from what I heard, it's the second best microtransaction system, Street Fighter 5 beating it. They are angry at something because of reasons that are wrong. Hell, if he wasn't so hellbent against Nintendo, you bet your sweet buttcheeks he's yell at Fed Force more than anyone else

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Spoiler

*Watching non-esports commentary highlights at TBH5*

"Dasiy can get it."

"Yeah, Daisy can get it for sure."

Shoutouts to all mah Daisy fans tho

 

[Soul.]

Lol. This is ridiculous. Where did they get that gaming was dead, or that companies can't deliver products that are otherwise called mediocre.

I feel like people just go to the part where the reviewer says the game is **** and instantly agree with them.

YouTube comments are in a new level of bad.

 

[Bedoop]

On the top, Wii U.
On the bottom, 3DS.
MAGICAL DIFFERENCES
I.E. KARATE CHOP RUN
ALL HAIL YOUR 3DS RULERS

 

[Solfiner]

"Knock knock."
"It's Knuckles."

Late fix

Fed Force's existence is soley on Nintendo wanting to make the series more profitable and produce more merchandise from it.

 

[Chrono.]

the final special world is unlocked after every Green Star and Stamp are collected as well as getting the Golden Flags

Bro wtf? I was only collecting the Green Stars all this time...

I still have to accomplish that in the game and I've had it for 2 years . So I guess I'm just a huge procrastinator then XD.

 

[NintenZ]

Cutie Gwen So expect Fed Force toys, lunchboxes, board games, cell phone cases, tissues, and more Fed Force merch. There's gonna be alot of $$$$!

A ha ha ha NO

I'll just get to Champion's Road and beat that and call it a 100% in spirit.

Ridley merchandise or gtfo. I hate the GF, give me a Kraid plushie too, the poor guy hasn't been in anything for ages

 

[Wario Bros.]

I don't like Angry Joe, or any reviewer/YouTube gamer that relies so much on losing their sanity to get attention (whether it's being upset or so called "comedy").

What he did lives up to why I don't like him in the first place.

Nintendo doesn't think Ridley or Kraid are as marketable as generic soldiers apparently.

It's why I'm fond of SomecallmeJohnny and NitroRad, they aren't pretending to be mad all the time, but stay calm and collective

 

[NintenZ]

Cutie Gwen However I don't agree with Nintendo, I don't think Fed Force is more marketable then the already established characters that they already have.

This game was in the works for I believe 10 years. I highly doubt it's because Nintendo thought this makes more money than one of the most iconic women in gaming

Good. They are better than mere nameless mooks

 

[PushDustIn]

I'm not surprised to see there are issues with video game reviews (in general).

Reviewing video games is a process that takes a lot more time than reviewing a book, film, or music. With those you have a full idea of its contents, and how long it will take.

Games are elastic and aspects can be stretched out. Some parts can take weeks to find but it doesn't get rid of "deadlines" for reviews. There's also some concern about companies buying reviews, but I think that's only an issue with a number of select individuals...and not the gaming press as a whole.

So I just saw a commercial for what may be the STUPIDEST "horror" movie ever.

Let me guess, Green Inferno

 

[LIQUID12A]

The only notable instances of higher up manipulation that I can remember of in recent years were Machinima/Microsoft's shady behavior regarding XB1 promotion(say positive things, get paid more), and(while not a monetary example) some YT personalities getting early access to Shadow of Mordor in exchange for agreeing to a restrictive contract which required them to be positive about it.

Even so, companies these days.

 

[NintenZ]

Let me guess, Green Inferno

I don't remember the title but it was some Christmas BULL**** where because a few kids are acting stupid they ruin all of Christmas for everyone and because of this an evil demon or some **** comes and instead of giving like Santa Clause, he takes away or whatever, yeah it looks so awful it's not even in the so bad it's funny category. I mean why are movies like these tend to be so bad in almost evey area, did the people who made it just decide to enroll in the Michael Bay school of not giving a ****?

Plus I feel like someone should have experience in the genre/series before reviewing game unless it's they are giving the series a try.

The AJ situation happened because he wasn't as familiar with the series as before and he gets angry for the sake of getting angry.

I look at the review of God Hand and Pro Jared's Metal Gear Rising review as a perfect example

 

[powerprotoman]

so can i just say the dub of xeno X is pretty great

like seriously this is a good dub

 

[jahkzheng]

I think some people are just gimmick reviewers and are meant to be entertaining before they're informative necessarily. They can still be informative of course but their information is filtered through whatever gimmick they're going for. Generally, someone who's thing it is to complain about minutia will have more negative sounding reviews.

 

[NintenZ]

I mean people just need to stop making such **** movies, it's actually starting to get offensive.
