Hatchet Job on Ryan Davis
He seems to be twisting their words around most of the time. I listen to the bombcast every week and I don't remember any of these quotes.
Once again, PS3 fanboy prove themselves to be exceedingly creepy. I own a PS3 so I'm not trying to flamebait here. This article, like many, is over-defensive over some PS3 exclusive. So what if some people don't care about it? It's not a casual game you just take a chance on. It's a game where you move back into your mom's basement, fill all space not consumed by you, your TV, and PS3 with buckets of KFC, expect to play the most hellishly difficult game you've played in years, and get ready to play it for insane amount of hours. Not saying the game is bad. That's like saying buckets of KFC is bad. I mean, I guess it kind of is....actually, it's terrible. Hey I hate Demon Souls. You must now write about me.
" Here's the only Tweet I could find of Ryan Davis mentioning Demon's Souls.Interesting!?! There may be some truth to what has been said.

I tend not to care much for Ryan's opinions, as they are usually very closed minded and ignorant. Nothing against him as a person, I just cringe when he unjustly dismisses a great game on the Bombcast or a Quick Look.
I played Demon's Souls at TGS last year. Didn't really see the appeal then, and the game it blossomed into holds zero attraction for me. There are so many games at any given time that I don't feel particularly compelled to punish myself in my spare time with games I don't want to play.
As evidence, here's my TGS hands-on preview from 2008! Whabam!

I love the GB guys and all their opinions and prejudices.
Like Gerstmann giving MK vs. DC 5 stars. That's crazy. But I don't care because Jeff is awesome. His knowledge is encyclopedic and he's smart and funny as shit. That's why I tune in.
I mean I hate Final Fantasy and I have friends who play Final Fantasy and occasionally I give them crap about liking pretentious unintuitive games satring effeminate teenagers, but hey: they're still my friends and I still respect their opinion on games (for the most part) and I don't lay into them for not being "objective" because that would be ridiculous. Any reviewer of anything that claims to be totally objective is full of it.
" It's on like muthafuckin' Donkey Kong. "I think another one of these is in order.
