My One Issue with Game Grumps (Both Previous and Recent Seasons)

[Juste Goose]

the sense of child-like wonder.

I miss the pure, unadulterated friendship that was so evident between Jon and Arin.

Jon and Arin felt like i was watching the snapshot of a friendship that was so alive. It felt more like i was just a spectator to something that was organic and would happen naturally rather than them creating enjoyment just so i can watch. The sonic adventure episode where knuckles goes into a wall will always make me laugh.

That's what makes me so upset about Jon's departure; I don't know if they're friends anymore. I mean, they didn't appear on camera together in the Farewell to Jon video. And Arin didn't like, comment, or subscribe Jon's new video. I would think he'd do that if they were still friends...

Always so sad to see such a great friendship end, especially over money or creative differences. Or maybe a girl. Allegedly.

I dunno, I don't think the Grumps have lost their childlike wonder at a game, they always seem astonished at especially imaginative and visually striking games for example.

What I will accuse them of is being astonishingly persistant at ignoring tutorials and other obvious hints and then calling bad design, when they actual reason is they're talking to one another and barely paying attention to the game. Example being a recent Mario Sunshine episode where they are point blank told to spray a certain object, they spray a completely different object, miss and call the game cryptic.

Also, don't you DARE say Vectorman is better than Mega Man classic. Them's fightin' words.

I never said or implied that Vector Man was better than the classic Megaman series.

All I was saying is that given Arin's particular interests and sensibilities, he might enjoy Vector Man as much as the classic Megaman series, if not a tiny bit more because Vector Man was a generation later than Megaman and Vector Man has a lot of interesting little quarks to it.
