Good video, didn't slag of Austin but basically said his facts were sub par and not accurate. I didn't expect DF to call him out like everybody else has so this is as harsh as they would be. Rest of video is good to I guess.

Austin ABSOLUTLEY has deserved this backlash from his peers because what he did and said was stupid!! It's as simple as that lool

blackblades1585d ago

He deserves to be blaclisted as some whould say cancelled. Can't spit out crap like that and still be around.

PrinceAli1585d ago

Tbh, i think blacklisting is harsh, people do what he did A LOT in the industry to get clicks and his opinion even if clearly seemingly is biased on the subject he is still a vastly knowledgeable person so he does offer insight base don experience.. In this specific scenario and realllyyy when his opinion certainly shows off blatant biased he deserves ALL the ridicule he gets from his contemporaries

Jin_Sakai1585d ago

Austin got 93k likes and only 10k dislikes on a misleading video and In his follow up video basically defending his claims he got 80k like and only 5.8k dislikes.

Am I missing something? Either most people believe him or N4G is a huge minority going against his claims.

@Jin-Sakai

It's Youtube, Austin has a HUGE fanbase they will ride for him forever, plus he has the benefit of Xbox fans that love the console war that have used his video for flame wars so hes getting additional support there, his video isnt gonna get dislike bombed in any meaningful way but the ridicule he's received has been loud and industry wide...

- sorry was confused between names.

@Jin_Sakai @PrinceAli
Basically its like Trump and his cult. Things like this shouldnt keep happening its bad for the industry and bad for some people mental health. Blacklisted for awhile is good enough not that harsh.

hot4play1584d ago

I unsubscribed from Austin’s channel after that 🤷🏻‍♂️

'YouTuber' is not a qualification for science. If you're not an expert or professional in the field of engineering do not present yourself as one. The whole crazy thing about the Austin Evans debacle is that he has no expertise in this field yet he thought it was okay to make definitive statements such as the new PS5 being 'worst'.

I don't know anything above basic level concepts about how car engines work so I'm not going to make a YouTube video on a new Ford car reviewing it on if it runs hotter or colder than the last model. He opened up the PS5 and pretended to be an engineer when really he was a kid playacting. It was unprofessional and nobody is calling him out for it which means this will happen again.

Austin is full of crap and everybody knows it

People probably did the exploit and never played it. They probably won’t even notice and shouldn’t care either way.

SkilledGamer307d ago

As expected, if it wasn't intended to be given away for free then those that did claim it had to get access removed, although it shouldn't have taken a whole month to do so.

PRIMORDUS306d ago

Free on PC hehe. Can't take that away now can you lol.🏴‍☠️

Nier Automata is not on the list?
MegaMan X?

TheEnigma313735d ago

Where is Castlevania SotN? By far 1 of the best ever soundtracks

Terry_B735d ago (Edited 735d ago )

A good list that covers a good variation of different types of video game music needs to have at least a minimum of 25 different games.

There in the list are just 9. And only one of them is from a game older than 10 years. Most of them were released in the last 3 years I think.

Its a shitty list actually..with a shitty headline and a shitty image with zelda, god of war and street fighter while none of them is discussed in the list.

esportdriven.com is now on my list..the list of shitty vg sites.
