Jimquisition: Jimquisition Extra: Virgillio Armarndio's Art Hole

[SwimmingRock]

The player looks actually way more like a pennis.

I thought so too, with the side bits being ballbags. Wasn't the whole subtext of partiarchal oppression in Space Invaders that the male sees the female as less than human and is interested in nothing more than shooting his sperm into her? The fact that a hit Invader disappears symbolizes that a woman is no longer considered of any interest to men once she is already impregnated, which is to say she effectively ceases to exist.

Someone noticed that Virgilio looks a lot like Jim?

Lunacy.


PS: If you can't take a joke, please don't quote me. I'm not being serious at all.

WHen did we get Extra Credits back on the escapist?

I wasn't here for when Extra Creditz fell off the site, so maybe I'm bias, but ehhh... That's pretty rude, guy.

Haha, of course its rude! Bit still a joke, as extra credits drips with pretentiousness more often than not.

pretentiousness- an exaggerated sense of one's importance that shows itself in the making of excessive or unjustified claims.

they do dabble a lot into going for more complex n deeper meanings and analyzing excrutinely their topics, but i never got them as having a sense of exagerated self importance. they seemed humble enough, while just stating an opinion. maybe you meant sth else?

What the fuck is this garbage?

Ugh, here comes another COD fanboy, not getting the subtlety of art.

Go back to your shootans, CODboy.

Yeah okay.

Anybody can post URLs to prove that things on those URLs exist.

Now please let the adults talk about art. Real art. Not that COD that you play every single day of the week.

Thank you, I couldn't have said it better myself. Taking something seriously is a far cry from being pretentious for the sake of it.

Well there goes any hope I had of sleeping tonight.

Just terrifying.

Those secondary art meanings in games can be good, look at Bioschock.

Of course. He's doesn't hate all games with an artistic point, just the practice of over-analyzing things, and pretentious games that make no attempt to engage the player or be enjoyable on top of having a message, like he talked about in the last Jimquisition.

 

[vxicepickxv]

I simply MUST ask
How big was test audience?
How many from test audience, survived this?
And how much of the those who died committed suicide?
How much of survivors are in catatonic state?

P.S. Unusual, but funny

The "test audience" was only one person, and his is still alive, doing his job, every Monday on the Escapist, and on destructoid.com more often.

...I went to art school. Was it wrong that I enjoyed this episode so much?

Yeah okay.

Ha! You do know what this is about!

Jim is revisiting his art snob character from his Defending Call of Duty episode.

Also you may want to ignore Jimothy. He is Jim's unwanted bastard child.

 

[Davroth]

Space Invaders sure ain't no Peaches, that's for freaking certain.

 

[flaviok79]

Another WTF moment in Jimquisition's short history.

 

[DoomyMcDoom]

Hahaha, that hat, that hat was perfect for this... This video in itself is like taking complete nonsensical drivel and turning it into an art form. Well done indeed Jim. Bravo!

 

[Cranky_Gamer]

I would say Jim did this video so he had an excuse to dress silly and wear make-up. Problem is, Jim doesn't need an excuse, it's just how he rolls.

Great, now I want the next Jimquisition to feature Jim in full drag, while at the same time the mere thought has my brain trying to escape through my ears, while my intestines are plotting to choke me to death....

 

[Taronus]

Oh, please dear sir, the player is OBVIOUSLY a teat full of milk that shoots it at the approaching horde of ravenous babies in order to feed them all.It is a statement for contraception, oh yes...

Good episode, extra is always good. Speaking about what game is Art or not, is pointless, one can see art anywhere, it is subjective. Actually labeling a game as "An Art Game" undermines the hobby since it assumes the other games are not art.

... I just don't understand...
