Steel Battalion - early, hands-down winner for worst motion controls of 2012 and beyond.

It seems so weird that it seems like a perfect contender for an "so bad it's good" award. The gameplay footage certainly was better at hyping me up for the game than the weird trailer they put up recently.

You are wrong, sir.

This video is boss. Steel Battalion looks Bananas. Star Wars Kinect looks bad bananas. Trials Evolution looks like Super Excitebike. Fable: The Journey has Horse Love. Halo 4 looks Haloer.

Good stuff! Alright, late!

OMFG RAGGGEEEEEEEEEE

I called out Greg K for being dry, boring, and like a nephew at a bad family gathering when playing skyrim.

I get shit for it here, but as sooon as Dave Lang does the exact same impression everyone laughs. Only from the Giantbomb community!!!!

It's the difference between Dave Lang joking around and giving somebody he personally knows a hard time, versus you (an internet nobody) going around telling people how they're mistaken if they think Greg K was entertaining during the Skyrim stream.

His mockery was in jest, yours sounds like it isn't, unless I'm misreading you.

At the time, I was more like "OMG couldn't you have gotten anyone better just listen to him drone on about nothing. Put Kessler on or anything!!!!"

After watching Lang's impression I was like "God damnnit he stole my material!" lol

I doubt that Halo 4 is running on a new engine. Being a Halo fan, I've played a bunch of Halo Reach, and although 4 looks a bit better, it moves just like Reach.

Wonder why Jeff likes the white X-Box so much. Casual racism?

Steel Battalion looks bad, but in a good way. And yes that was a great Greg impression, but watching him play Skyrim is also the reason I wound up buying Skyrim.

They could've easily made this video for paid subscribers only. Glad they didn't. : )

They have NEVER had the GiantBomb @ videos for subscribers only and since its just normal game coverage it wouldn't make any sence.
