[video=youtube;UGX2WE4QUw8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGX2WE4QUw8[/video] that didn't take long
Man I want those props
You have to hand it to Joe, for an internet reviewer, I've always appreciated his production values.
bad game
that dancing alien:v: oh well at least bioshock infinite still gonna launch this year, and I'm pretty sure it will not suck
[QUOTE=Reds;39586420]You have to hand it to Joe, for an internet reviewer, I've always appreciated his production values.[/QUOTE] Even some of the worst reviewers have good production value. Joe has production value and REALLY solid reviews of stuff. His planetside 2 review is like 20 minutes long or something.
Man an Amnesia style aliens game would be the shit and would be in the spirit of the original alien movie too. Its too bad all the holders of these licenses want big AAA sellers that appeal to the widest audience possible.

BULLSHIT!

[QUOTE=shian;39587424]Better than those tumors like Tobuscus[/QUOTE] He's not really a reviewer, he's just a... thing
[QUOTE=Reds;39586420]You have to hand it to Joe, for an internet reviewer, I've always appreciated his production values.[/QUOTE] I'll agree but add there's been several times where the opening joke drags on too long and his acting, even if over-the-top, sometimes reaches Nostalgia Critic levels of awkwardness. But yeah he's always trying to deliver a good show and hit a sweet spot between entertainment and information, I can really respect that.
Never really understood it, what's wrong with this review?
[QUOTE=Matrix374;39586397]Man I want those props[/QUOTE] You can get Colonial Marine stuff at Spatcave. Hope you got 700 bucks though.
i dont know why he goes on for 33 minutes he should have just uploaded the first 15 seconds of the video
[QUOTE=Reds;39586420]You have to hand it to Joe, for an internet reviewer, I've always appreciated his production values.[/QUOTE] Every time I watch one of his reviews, I'm reminded of the original G4/TechTV shows. It's like he's straight out of Judgement Day or X-Play. I love it.
which marine from the original movie is in the game?
[QUOTE=seroyal223;39591999]which marine from the original movie is in the game?[/QUOTE] [sp]Hicks.[/sp] [sp]Turns out his death in Alien 3 was that of a body double and that the real Hicks was found in cryo by Weyland.[/sp]
[QUOTE=RikohZX;39592143][sp]Hicks.[/sp] [sp]Turns out his death in Alien 3 was that of a body double and that the real Hicks was found in cryo by Weyland.[/sp][/QUOTE] that is so dumb
Doesn't the game take place between Aliens and Alien 3 though?
[QUOTE=MisterSjeiks;39592483]Doesn't the game take place between Aliens and Alien 3 though?[/QUOTE] Nope, it is 17 weeks after Alien 3 I think.
That last stand scene was hilarious.

[QUOTE=RikohZX;39592143][sp]Hicks.[/sp] [sp]Turns out his death in Alien 3 was that of a body double and that the real Hicks was found in cryo by Weyland.[/sp][/QUOTE] Who the fuck handed these guys the right to add this to the canon, really?
[QUOTE=Egon Spengler;39592849]what the fuck? really? so what's next Newt actually didn't die, but it was the horribly mangled body of some marine that woke up late[/QUOTE] You'd be surprised, a comic series of Aliens from Dark Horse Comics had Newt survive, albeit it's not canon to the movies. A lot of folks like to disregard Resurrection at the least, and the third movie as well.
The first 20 seconds of this video were probably the funniest thing I can remember right now
Back to his roots. :(
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;39592873]Who the fuck handed these guys the right to add this to the canon, really?[/QUOTE] Why? That was the least of the storyline's problem. You never officially see that [sp]Hicks is dead, you only see pieces of a body that you assume is him but honestly in the game his role is extremely flat so maybe it would have been better if he stayed dead but it had potential.[/sp]
I like Angry Joe's reviews but there's one thing that annoys me. He's constantly saying fuck and then for some reason he decides to randomly bleep it out sometimes.
Damn, I need to get one of those pulse rifle props.
