" Humph, this game is simply too childish. As a serious gamer I find the lack of deserts, a realistic story and arabs to shoot to be a gamebreaker. How can you have a good fps without that? And what's with all the colours? This needs to be more like Killzone, we don't need any kind of depth to our characters or gameplay. And humour in an FPS? What is this, Serious Sam? No thanks.    I am so jealous of Cliff Bleszinski too, I hate that he has more money than me and is a co designer of very popular and well made games. God what a douche that makes him. "

 
I started reading your post and was going to respond with a pretty harsh response until I realized that you missed the famous "/sarcasm"
 
I am looking forward for this game due to its sheer unadulterated over-the-top action that looks and sounds GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCKING AWESOME.

" No matter how much he complains, nobody is going to stop calling him Cliffy B while he persists in acting like a complete twat. "

 1. Except, he said that once in a disarming fashion. Way to blow something out of proportion. 
 
2. What does this have to do with Bulletstorm? Lol, nothing. 
 
3. All I can say about this video is: lol. I'm still a bit turned off to Bulletstorm, but that video game me a chuckle.

So, you're saying that you were a better person when you were 12 than you are now?

Didn't you read the Game Informer interview? They asked Cliff in what stage of production they were and he said that they were turning the game into something patbaer would hate. Seriously, you didn't read that? 
 
Well, finished my daily quota of quotes. HA! Quota of quotes.

It is immature and childish.  The fact that they set out to be that way is irrelevant.  Either you like it or you don't.  This is the same sort of logic people use to defend Uwe Boll movies.  "He knows they are bad!  He's doing it intentionally!"  So fucking what.  They suck. "
Wait, what? You had me up until you started talking about Uwe Boll. It's one thing to aim for a certain aesthetic that some people might not like, it's another to make complete horseshit that not even you like.

Too many negative comments on these Bulletstorm videos, so I had to add my positive one. 
 
I love the marketing, though I was sold on the game long before they started it.
