MrHoatzin Posted April 24, 2009 This thread may be in need of some change of tone: "The whole thing is oddly compelling, reassuring and empowering. It is an altar to creativity at its most basic and most abstract. It is the stuff of nightmares, it is what dreams are made of." - IGN.com "Of course, no one is to blame because no mistake was made." - IGN.com "While I tend to read the game as a declaration of stormy hopefulness—of the regeneration of nonhuman nature over destructive human culture—it might very well be the other way around." - IGN.com "Currently it is easy to be impressed, but the vagaries of execution make it difficult to care." - IGN.com "These games don't inherently believe in their own supremacy like their chronological predecessors. The market now does that for them." - IGN.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrHoatzin Posted April 24, 2009 What the hell are you doing?http://www.artlies.org/article.php?id=1493&issue=54&s=0 A bit of stealth self-plagiarism? That particular issue of ARTL!ES was sitting on my desk. All of those are random quotes from the mag, massaged for context. I guess I also stole sentences from other reviews too, omg!

James Posted April 25, 2009 This game... better than... human love... Oh come now, be fair. They didn't say that. They said the achievements are better than human love. Who cares about games when you can have achievements? So, I sometimes listen to IGN podcasts at work because I get very bored and run out of other podcasts to listen to, and they have a bunch of stuff they're explicitly instructed to mention in every episode, such as pleas to favourably review them on iTunes and so on. Every time they mention that their Twitter is "IGNcom, no dot" it makes me laugh, and I wonder if the particular person saying that has visited the dotted incarnation.

MrHoatzin Posted April 25, 2009 My girlfriend, who went to mime school (PhD in imaginary boxes), says these dudes don't know shit. A little too "Lord Privy Seal" in their delivery. She had a more nuanced critique, but it is too technical for you muggles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SignorSuperdouche Posted April 26, 2009 I have no particular knowledge of mime, but I think it's fair to say that in order to mime well an artist has to have very precise control over their body. These guys do not have that, their limbs are all over the place. I'll bet that this started when they were 8, and they were encouraged by all the grown ups. Now nobody has the heart to tell them that, actually, it was shit and everyone was lying to them before. "Sorry, but actually this is shit. We didn't tell you before because we didn't want to hurt your feelings and we thought you'd grow out of." - IGN.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
