That's....how businesses work though. If you say shitty things while representing a company, damn right you'd be fired for those "personal views". I'm more shocked that people are shocked by this.

Lol at the people boycotting the game because they won't get to hear Jontron make a single 'boop' noise on the menu screen. Who cares?

If I said the shit Jontron was saying, I'd be fired from my company on the spot. And yet people are surprised and shocked that Jontron is no longer in the game because it's "only his personal opinions". Pfft. These people obviously aren't old enough to have a job or represent a company. You can be fired for...

Yeah and the problem he is referring to (scripted boss battles) is a problem with many modern games. So I'm not sure why he bothered to single out RotTR. It's hardly the worst offender

The alien thing isn't so weird. There was that awesomely creepy alien attack in Majora's Mask.

I hope there's an option to turn the music up and the sound effects down. I've seen so many clips where the music is difficult to hear or not even there :(

I'm worried about the lack of music in so many clips too. The soundtrack is on youtube and it seems to have themes for each level so maybe I'm just being paranoid, but one thing I've noticed about every clip so far is the complete lack of music or really quiet music in the background that is really hard to hear

They aren't referring to sexuality or an agenda. A "straight man" in a movie is a down-to-earth and by-the-book character who usually keeps the eccentric side-characters in check (e.g. John Watson is the "straight man" to Sherlock Holmes' eccentric cocaine-addicted weirdness. Most of Jason Bateman and Leslie Nielson's roles are the "straight man" next to strange or crazy side characters).

Way too young to die from 'complications from surgery'. That's usually something you hear from someone in their 80s or older :(

It's also worth mentioning that this isn't the first time a Zelda game has had a day/night cycle. Majora's Mask also had one and it was quite impressive for it's day...

Yeah, but he also didn't consider his portrayal of Hannibal to be a villain, so I'd take this with a grain of salt lol

Yeah I don't know why I even bother half the time, because some people are just completely unwilling to accept that there have been badass women in history who didn't just sit in the kitchen all day waiting for their husband's to put babies in them. Apparently acknowledging that there have been MANY warrior women throughout history makes me some sort of sjw or something? I don't know...

Many of the women were NOT accepted by the men they fought with, let alo...

Ignoring the fact that For Honor isn't going for historical accuracy (e.g. Vikings never fought Samurai), there actually were a large portion of female samurai back in the day. Granted, they still faced obstacles due to their gender and many were expected to simply guard their homes and families instead of going into battle. But there were many who did fight alongside men, and were considered no less skilled or talented than male samurai. Well-known female samurai include Tomoe Gozen (who...

I love Banjo Kazooie but whether it does everything 'better' than Mario 64 is a matter of taste. Personally I'm not keen on 'collectathons' so the repetitive nature of collecting all the jiggies, notes, and jinjoes makes Banjo a more difficult game to replay. You spend a lot of time in the same worlds just collecting as much as you can, and it just doesn't have the same focus that Mario 64 had.

For that reason I believe Mario 64 has aged incredibly ...

RE5 was pretty terrible in the middle. There are entire chapters (the villages populated by grass-skirt wearing tribesmen, the ruins, the crazy ancient puzzles, etc) that could have been cut out and the story would barely be an different. It was unnecessary filler. As though Capcom wrote a story and realized 'oh shit, our story is only 40 minutes long. Quickly add some African villages and Tomb Raider temples to pad it out!"

I personally disliked the Japanese one as much as the English one. The English one was weak, but the Japanese one had that awful over-the-top screeching cry that so many female characters in anime have.

The French and Spanish versions nailed the crying. Heartfelt and actually sounded like a real person crying.

Eh I dislike tumblr as much as the next person, but this is a pretty interesting read. Sad to know that we got such different versions of much-loved games that Japanese fans got.

No Bruce Mccavaney calling the players "delicious" and "gorgeous"? Hahaha

It's sad that we live in a world where nobody bats an eye at male characters doing fantastical and unrealistic things because they're the hero, but as soon as a female character does only one thing that's unrealistic, she must be "catering to sjws" and "made to appease Anita". It's frustrating that so many female characters are questioned nowadays. Everybody assumes there's some sort of agenda behind their existence :(

I'm not too worried about the length. I beat FF7 the first time in just over 30 hours and I didn't rush through it. Quality over quantity.

Yeah i think the FF10 cover was pretty good for the graphics alone. I remember seeing a pucture of Tidus for the first time when the game came out and thinking 'wow he looks so real. I NEED to play this game!'
