Yes, he does this for most of the games he reviews. Don't like it? Skip those parts. He enjoys them evidently.
He's a trustworthy reviewer who gives scores that don't just suggest "shit" or "good." His analysis of games is often balanced and thorough, which is easily enough seen in the lengths of the reviews he does. (not to say he is flawless however, he tripped up when he did his Skyrim review)

thats the only pro people ever give, that he's honest. as for it's length? he's just repeating the same stuff over and over and over, very awkwardly. constantly being like 'ooh my goddd its so goood!!! oh my godddd!!!' *clenches fists and looks upward*
I like angry Joe, he's generally pretty objective with his reviews.
Yes some of the intros can be quite cringe worthy (more often not to be honest) but the reviews themselves are actually pretty good.
if you seriously consider anything this guy says 'thorough analysis' then you don't even know the meaning of those words. an awkward waffler with no structure or eloquence? ya bet your ass
im not gonna shit it up all thread so ill leave but im just saying.
hes like the pewdiepie of video game reviews, but even more awkward.

if by review you mean saying the same things over and over while also consistently being really simple and not in depth, with so my hyperbole you could sink a ship then yeah.
Heh this review is pretty weak compared to his other reviews

Well he is part entertainer, but he usually goes over enough to get a good idea of what a game is like, and to be honest there aren't many other reviewers who go in depth about games, certainly not in the case of most major reviewers any way.
I do agree that sometimes Joe goes a little overboard, and it can get really annoying, but I enjoy his reviews for the most part.
There's also a nostalgia factor for me because he reminds me of the early days of TechTV / G4. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzjgE21w3Vk]Judgment Day, and whatnot.[/url]
This actually passes as a review? Someone should take away his green-screen.
HE has some valid points but his whole thing on multiple endings is completely false. If anything it would've cheapened the message of the ending of the game completely.

Also they explain Elizabeth's powers near the end so that must've been something he missed.
He's mildly entertaining and raises a few good points (mainly about the weapons/vigors) but like he said the only reason he struggled on some missions and felt unprepared was because he played on hard. All he had to do was pick up some of the weapons that the enemies drop, and he didn't exactly move out of the way of attacks either half of the time so it's no surprise that he died a lot.

this made me cringe
Not criticising him to shit because he didn't give it a 10/10 but he overlooked a lot of stuff, he didn't get the meaning of the choices you make for the story nor did he pay much attention to Elizabeth. I feel like he just rushed a bit and didn't see the stuff Elizabeth does if you give her the chance.

This just in:
People are no longer allowed watch whatever the hell they want to watch on Youtube.
To be fair he nitpicks games because thats what his whole YouTube is about. Every negative point he mention was something I noticed myself, right down to Elizabeth's weird face at the end of the video. But not once did it take away anything from the story or gameplay and I personally would give it a 10/10 just because its been so long since a game has made me want to replay it as soon as I finished the story.
Eh I personally thought that this review was lackluster. He missed some plot points and I don't think he understood the reason why this game didnt need alternate or multiple endings. I just felt that he rushed through it and considering his twitter feed, I think I'm right. Well besides his opinions on the game, at least the review wasn't as bad as his skyrim and guild wars 2 one. (Or that Medal of Honor one...)
Personally though, 10/10 for me. Such a fantastic breath of fresh air that I won't get again in several years.
Probably had to rush because he had a week to get a review out or something like that.

Rusty just hates everything like this, he'll come to every nostalgia critic thread and bitch about it
He's got good reviews, for instance is Dragon's Dogma review was pretty great, but this one isn't one of them I don't think. It's kind of weird, he seems to be in love with the game but yet didn't understand the reasoning behind a single ending.
Personally I can't wait for Bennent The Sage's review on this game, since I think he's more honest about games.
Watch the Angry Joe Review on Tomb Raider, then Bennent's Review. I think Bennent was more to the point and honest about his opinion on that game than Joe was.
I'm guessing this just gets across the points that everyone knows about already, has painfully unfunny sketches involving just him, has an awful shouty rhetorical style and is roughly 3 times as long as it should be. Genuinely can't stand this guy.
I think he's okay but I can't sit through it all. If he made them shorter I think it would be better. He just drags out some parts too much.
hey guys i can save you 22 minutes
buy it its fucking great

I said said something similar about Angry Joe last year.
Facepunch gave me enough boxes and disagree crosses to build enough cardboard nazi tanks to invade france 4 times.
joe has no understanding of this game
also he can't spell lieu
its so fucking long for no reason. we don't need to see examples of what you're talking about directly, we don't need you to show us the first level of the game, or explain every single core concept as slowly as you can. this review could easily be shortened to 4 minutes
