Nope! I'm the Chemist, and I don't really do anything on Youtube.

I'm surprised there wasn't a mention of Left 4 Dead 2, or the current fallout from that announcement. Considering L4D received a more positive review, perhaps it would have broken the consistency and mission of a "hype massacre", but still seems worth noting. Oh yea, and no mention of...

"wotawshi woh bakkah guyjin" ouch, I cringed a little at the pronunciation there, which I am sure was the point, but still ouch. Unhappily takes me back to the Far Cry 2 review. Maybe accents and other languages (aside from German, which you seem okay with) are better left to their natives.

Not only am I always only myself, I dislike personas so much that I actually use my real name and real following initials and don't have a user image because really - you can't see me, so what's the point? I grew out of trying to come up with neato online personas about a year after the...

Eh... hard to enjoy because of the accent shift, it was mildly amusing at first, unpleasantly evoking a grimace all afterward. I get it's supposed to be South African but the whole thing stunk of a dead horse, I was surprised you didn't go off into further horse pummeling with mention of the...

A new addition to the Katamari Damashii series on either the DS or Wii. I mean, christ, its what the two machines were practically custom tailored for, but instead we get mass market quick buck crap on the Wii, and good but less and less touch screen relevant games on the DS. Guess that...

There is a LOT wrong with this movie, and not in a "fanboy nitpicky" sense, but a legitimate "they missed the entire point" sense. It looks like they have tweaked virtually everything in the story to make it more mass-market palatable, unfortunately to an artistic detriment. Everything from...

Now that you say that, I was just thinking that maybe the squirt gun used by the imp was a reference to another fantastic game: Zombies Ate My Neighbors. A fanastic co-op (mostly) zombie based game as well.

I'd agree with one of the last typed jokes, I don't get the whole "Smoker" name either. I mean, yes, I get that they poof into clouds of smoke, but that's obviously kind of an arbitrary distinction that feels kind of tacked on. I also wonder if I'm the only one who thinks of Waterworld...

Although in general multiplatform releases are a good thing, exclusives are what truly keep the industry going. Imagine if there were no exclusives, then quickly one of two competing hypothetical consoles would not sell because their hardware became apparent as the lesser of the two. Since...

Shows that premiere on AS? Venture Brothers, unquestionably. Shows that appear on AS? Tie between VB and Home Movies. Both shows are absolutely genius. Honorable mentions to many others, but none come close to topping these two.

A well done review, if a bit short. I especially appreciate the apparent drop in "FUCK YEAAAA GUITARRRRRRRRR!!!" volume, and although it might sound strange, the return to earlier near-monotone presentation. Not that I feels that style is necessarily better, but there seems to have been a lot...

I feel this was a much better video than others you have produced recently. Definately because it focuses on the game, the whole reason for the game review anyway, and keeps it as the main subject rather than a stab at marketing/online social interactions/gaming theory. Which I am glad about...

I'm a little confused. I understand that your audience is likely familiar with current games, but this video seems to be specifically tailored to people who have already played Braid and know it very well. Which is typically not the point of a sort of op-ed review because then your audience...

Well done review but.... oooohhhh... oh no you dit-int! I thought after the web comic video that you understood the overwhelming lameness that is: Ninjas Pirates Zombies Pants Cheese Robots etc, etc, etc juvenile internet bullshit. So what, are you being ironic and borderline...
