Oh my God. If they made MediEvil 3, I would go out and buy a PS3 (currently a PC and Xbox gamer). I love that series sooo much. One of my all time favourite games.
The Stained Glass Demon is still one of the coolest boss concepts ever.
Such a great series. Fantastic music. Brilliant cutscenes. Intriguing mythos. All round brilliant.
And Tomba was good too (not as good).

Oh god yes, I would love a new medievil game.
Okay, I liked the other two, kind of. This one was much better. I'll watch

I agree with Tomba! It was one of my favorite games of all time and I still have the ps1 disk of it, unfortunately it is scratched pretty badly I have tried many times to fix it but no luck.
So ya Tomba! is amazing and all would indeed be forgiven if they released it as a classic. Also if anyone knows of a miracle scratch cure send me a pm there are no deep scratches and it will start but it doesn't get past the opening sequence.

There's a lot of good games that everyone's forgotten....
I'd much better if they just let me download fucking portal 2 to my pc.
Seriously, THE VERY DAY I bought portal PSN gets hacked and now i can't do multiplayer until the end of may.
:/

His drawing skills are superb, and I find him yelling about some valid points. However, the intromusic is arse IMO. make it less high pitched please :d.
Gonna watch this show now, it's mildly entertaining

I'm also still waiting for the download (if a software problem) or a peripheral (if a hardware problem) that allows us to play PS2 games on it. I don't care if I have to shell-out $100 for it, I'd still buy it. Just give me the option and I'll be happy. If they did something along these lines, all would be forgiven.
First line was golden. "The only way for Sony to get any worse press this season is do do a debut on the Escapist."
Wooop, largely positive comments for once!
I enjoyed it as always. Swapping out the MS paint stuff for game footage was a nice touch, it does a better job of breaking up the video. Better glasses, too
I've read a few comments from people asking for you to calm down/yell less/swear less - please don't. You've obviously toned yourself down a lot since your first episode, and I get that it needed to happen for people to stop complaining so much (sigh). More toning down might make you start to lose impact, though. It feels like you've struck a nice balance here; anyone still offended needs to either suck it up and meet the rest of us on this middle ground that you've created, or just stop watching.
The audio quality is still a bit lacking, particularly on the voiceovers for the game footage - that's literally my only criticism. Nice one, Jim!

I like this Jimqui-whatnot, keep it coming =3. I like the "all high and mighty" attitude!
Isn't it written Fruits Basket? In the anime I mean? I agree though, it's not very good... And why is it written that way? It's silly!Mad1Cow said:
I do not understand why this wasn't possible from the start... I mean, you could play PS games on the PS2, right? I seem to clearly remember playing my old Time Crisis copy on the PS2!Stammer said:
I dunno, I had a friend who kept telling me to get into it because I expressed a liking for Bleach...let's just say we're not on speaking terms because of the matter...also there was not a free fruit basket with every episode so they should be sued for false advertisement...Vampire cat said:
First of all, that Pet thing game looks fucking awesome even if it is just kiddie-grade novelty crap.
Second, you might want a different color scheme from the Red & Black. You look like a Neo-Nazi or an apocalypse proclaiming cult leader. This has nothing to do with you personally or the quality of the videos. Just saying it's a bit weird.

I think this topic could really use a more serious discussion than, well, this. I'm seriously doubting that anyone is going to forgive Sony for returning to long-lost franchises, however beloved. The third suggestion is the only one that I can take seriously, and that's more as a discussion point than a literal "what does Sony need to do to undo the damage to its image" kind of thing; the fact that Sony has made several aggressive and customer-unfriendly moves recently contrasts with their failure to secure customer data in a really disturbing way. (To put it another way: we're willing to put up with a certain amount of Evil so long as it provides services and results that we like; when we realize that that Evil is served with a side of Incompetence, and that the combination is screwing us over from both ends to no tangible benefit, we're less forgiving.)
I feel like I want to like this series, but I just don't. The whole quasi-ironic self-depreciating "I'm so wonderful" business is neither making me laugh nor making me angry, it's just kind of making me wish the time spent on it was being used on something funny or interesting or useful.
"Top 5" is (was?) funny. "Extra Credits" is thoughtful (and often funny, but that's kind of a side-effect of having good writing and a talented artist.) "Jimquisition" feels like it's struggling to find its niche. I think the attitude needs to either be amped up to the point that it inspires something other than eye-rolling or dropped altogether for the sake of not obscuring (the audience) or distracting (the author) from the commentary.

Pros:
- Actual improvement in as such that he is talking about a topic that is relevant now, rather than one that is several months old.
- Dropped the vulgar drawing, big thumbs up.
Cons:
- Still barely chuckle worthy.
- While it is true that the psn firmware update are a pain and that everybody has their old classic game they'd like brought back... no real argument was made concerning the real topic. Which seems to be a trend here... Jim talk around the issue, not about the issue.

Mildly amusing to say the least, though the first sentence of the whole damn video was brilliant. You don't have my full respect yet, but you're on the right track.
That flag is a reverse of the flag of Norsefire, the fascist regime from V for Vendetta.Tradjus said:
hmmm, This was much better. You get serious points with me for Tomba and MediEvil. I have my eyes on you Jim.
