I think I found the most pretentious video game review site ever.

For what it is worth, I agree with the general point you are making. Extra Credits annoys me, I'm not sure if they are pretentious or just too patronising, but something about the way they deliver their message really makes me agitated and afterwards I feel like I have just been lectured by some kid who thinks he is a genius when all he has achieved is a pointless liberal university education.JourneyThroughHell said:

That review of LA Noire was painful to read.
He tried to write his review all artistic and unique, but in doing so, he failed to actually assess the game, and describe the good and bad aspects of it, something any review of anything should do.

You know, I actually liked this, but really wouldnt call it a review. I have a similar experiance sometimes, where im immersed in a game, but then certain things dont quite click, and it makes the whole game world feel like there is something really wrong with it, even in game context. I think its because the more graphically enchanced games become, the more of the little things we pick up on. Kind of like the uncanny valley applied to the entire game, rather than just the graphics.
Man I sound like a prick

Second, this is a good example of how one man's brilliance is another man's pretentiousness.
