I don’t like the idea of basing a show arounf “Hey, let’s take this thing people love and shit all over it together, laughing at how bad their taste is”. “Oh, and if they show up to defend the game let’s call them sheep and try to make them feel bad about liking a videogame, that’ll be fun”.

Making fun of someone for something they like is one…[Read more]

This throw stuff at the proverbial wall and see if it sticks approach is pretty nice actually. It’s good to explore new possibilities for how stuff in and around the show works. Kudos for the effort Farach!

Difference is that Phoenix Wright is very comedy driven, making frasers voiceacting work (arguably) well. 999 is serious all the time, so there isn’t much to work with comically. In my experience suspenseful games are terrible for the show because fraser wants to keep things joke-y and lighthearted. Not the game itself but how they play it and…[Read more]

The whole “LPing makes it original content” thing is pretty iffy for me. I mean what about cutscenes? What about on-rails games? What about games like PW that are essentially identical for each playthrough (no, going to the wrong screen every now and then doesn’t make it original content). I think there are a lot of games that allow for creative…[Read more]

Can I point out that it would be really boring if all the characters behaved the same way your shepherd does. They’re defined characters and the way you act determines how they react to you, not how they are as […]

Because Fraser doesn’t like that the girl he chose to romance doesn’t put out just because he chose all the paragon dialogue options.

How do you show someone something you won’t have until 10 years in the future?

As for the Percieve thing, if he was gonna present evidence anywhays what’s the point of it? You should be able to tell by the […]

I never found it impossible for movies, comics, books, radio dramas, theatre, or musicals to live up to that expectation. Hell even certain music can accomplish the task of painting a relatable character. […]

I need to do bulletpoints more often, it’s really nice when people actually get what you’re saying, go figure.

What do we need to get more mature? Well for starters let’s try not having Nathan Drake mowing down […]

If there was the odd game with a woman with gigantic boobs covered by a tiny bit of fabric or similar jumping around doing action scenes that’d be one thing. But when that’s considered normal I think something has […]

Ok so a few things I need to touch on here. Firstly, you don’t have to want these things in games. Tastes are different. But some people do want more variety and that’s something that isn’t there so much yet. In […]

The main issue is lack of variety. Ie. if you like the typical amnlyman or the “androgenous teen” (way overused and misused term, hence the quotes) you’re set and good to go. However if you want something more […]

I don’t think you quite get fraser if you think Sonic 06 is a good idea. See that game is not just bad, it’s broken. Fraser has very little patience during the shows and it’d take only til the first mach speed […]

Despite outward appearance Fraser thinks a lot about this show. I have no doubt this has been the plan for weeks if not months and that calculating cost was a part of the planning as well.

I hate forest levels. In all games. I always get lost in them.

Let’s put aside the fact that Apollo is a less interesting Phoenix clone and Trucy is a less interesting Maya clone, the main issues I have are as follows, and it will be spoilers, so watch for my […]

I can’t tell you what sucks in Apollo without spoiling the hell out of the game. All of my major issues with the game are story based and most of them are revealed in the last or second to last case. Suffice to […]

“And i really hope the gang doesn’t end up playing Apollo Justice. That one is just bad.”

You sir get http://giveupinternet.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/you-won-free-internet.jpg

Seriously, fuck that game…

The reason Lara didn’t have reactions that were realistic is because it’s a videogame. Not because videogames can’t portray emotion well, but because the game would be boring to play if the first hour of the game […]
