It's a terrible series.
Adam Sandler's movies make money and they are horrible. People like that shit. They get raked over the coals in reviews (except for Armand White I guess). If they were games they would get 90 metacritic and fanboys would be calling every reviewer who didn't agree a troll.
I haven't played Assassins Creed since the first game but by god was that game awful. Like truly bad.
The second game is just as bad, just in different ways. And the few things they got right in the first game, they totally screwed up in the second.
The last 2, from what I understand, is just MOTS.
That guy is an ass. He also rates every movie that gets 99% negative. He's just a contrarian attention whore. He's actually a pretty smart, articulate dude, but I don't buy the shtick. I could buy it for any one individual movie, but the pattern is too strong.Quote:

Is that the guy who was on Ron and Fez a bit ago? Gave Jack and Jill a great review? He sounded pretty decent on the show if that was him.
Gamesradar is my favorite. Look at this shit
Yep, that guy. He talks a good game on the show, but I just don't believe him.Quote:

I like that game. I'd give it 100.
I do blame the audience. People join a prerelease game's white knight brigade early on and want confirmation they didn't waste their time. They don't want to see good writing about it. That dynamic is just not there for movie writing as far as I can tell. I don't think many people were outraged when, say, Thor got mediocre reviews or Hangover 2 very poor ones.Quote:
