The escapist - Heavy Rain - General

[url]http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/1528-Heavy-Rain[/url] Not a bad review, can't say I agree with most of his points, but still a good review. imagine i wrote zero punctuation in the title.

cool

The killer's always the same? That's kinda pointless to play over and over again...

It's not even close to a review. He just points out the cons of each game and make them seem funny to please his audience.

Its not The escapist you fool

He's lost his touch..

[QUOTE=Soldier32;20800151]I never take The Escapist seriously. It's not even close to a review. He just points out the cons of each game and make them seem funny to please his audience.[/QUOTE] Yeah and you laugh at the cons and keep the pros to your self. It's great.

You know he likes a game when his complaints are small nitpicks.

[QUOTE=DR.QUAD QUE;20800263]He's lost his touch..[/QUOTE] No it's just not as good as his other videos. Just because 2 of the new episodes of How I met your mother or Family guy aren't so good doesn't mean they've lost their touch and you'll never see a good episode again..

[QUOTE=thisispain;20800379]that's roger ebert just on another medium[/QUOTE] Yeah except he has no goddamn concept of a good movie. [editline]01:09PM[/editline] sometimes

[QUOTE=Big Blue;20800356]hi family guy sucks[/QUOTE] I think you missed the point.

I knew he'd like it(not hate it atleast).

I was hoping he would do this review, he always go's on about "Press X to not die" and this game is basically that, and nothing else.

[QUOTE=samframpton;20803260]I was hoping he would do this review, he always go's on about "Press X to not die" and this game is basically that, and nothing else.[/QUOTE] Yep, that's all this game has to offer :downs:. Have you even played the game? I'm sure most of the people complaining havent even tried it.

[QUOTE=Soldier32;20800151]I never take The Escapist seriously. It's not even close to a review. He just points out the cons of each game and make them seem funny to please his audience.[/QUOTE] He's a Critic, not a reviewer.

You disgrace Zero Punctuation by labeling him as The Escapist? Seriously?

[QUOTE=Thaard;20803370]Yep, that's all this game has to offer :downs:. Have you even played the game? I'm sure most of the people complaining havent even tried it.[/QUOTE] I've seen the entire playthrough, and although the story was well written and there were moments of suspense that made me sit on my edge of the seat, however the main gameplay mechanic is "press this button/ move the stick like this to complete this task"

[QUOTE=toastedspyro;20799552]The killer's always the same? That's kinda pointless to play over and over again...[/QUOTE] the game actually isn't designed so that you play it over and over again, you're supposed to live with your choices and regret ones you didn't make at least so IGN and the developers say

[QUOTE=radioactive;20803398]He's a Critic, not a reviewer.[/QUOTE] No, he's a comedian

[QUOTE=radioactive;20803398]He's a Critic, not a reviewer.[/QUOTE] I know he's a critic. My post was directed to the OP who was calling it a review.

[QUOTE=samframpton;20804048]I've seen the entire playthrough, and although the story was well written and there were moments of suspense that made me sit on my edge of the seat, however the main gameplay mechanic is "press this button/ move the stick like this to complete this task"[/QUOTE] Actually, the story has alot of plot holes, but some of the scenes are preetty memorable. Take in the enviroment, the music, the characters and those scenes, and it makes it worth a while. Problem is that I know who the murderer is, so It's sort of a play once a year game. Also, you can shake the controller :O

[QUOTE=Munchiselleh;20804113]the game actually isn't designed so that you play it over and over again, you're supposed to live with your choices and regret ones you didn't make at least so IGN and the developers say[/QUOTE] So it has no replayability at all? That's... boring.

[QUOTE=Thomo;20800217]It's his job.[/QUOTE] Exactly. You aren't supposed to take him seriously. He's funny and that's it.

[QUOTE=Koolin;20804128]No, he's a comedian[/QUOTE] He's a critic for fucks sake.

[QUOTE=Big Blue;20800356]hi family guy sucks[/QUOTE] even though I agree with you. You still missed the point of what I was saying.

[QUOTE=Whatsinaname;20800289]You know he likes a game when his complaints are small nitpicks.[/QUOTE] He said something like "I don't have anything to say about this game" when he reviewed Portal in 4 seconds. So i guess he loved that game.
