Getting tired of nitpickers complaining about their skills. Why don't you do it better then? Go. Get a capture card, a mic, and start making your own videos that are better, more entertaining, and more informative and see how well YOU do. 
 
As far as nudity, why does it matter? Should you be disappointed that they can't show some boobs in a Quick Look? This is the internet, there's plenty of it elsewhere. I'm sure they have their reasons for not showing it so...boo-hoo. 
 
All in all doesn't look that interesting, and my interest has plummeted to zero. Kind of a pity, cause I was sort of hoping it would be so much better than the previous iteration.

Due to me being a fan of the genre, i might have to rent this.

After playing the PC demo, the 360 version looks terribad.

Great quicklook surprised by the lack of our resident Italian Stallion but still fun!

I think it's cute how Brad is so conscious of his Quick Look death ability and concerned to not add to the legend..

Did they tweek the shotgun for the full game so it sucks? Because i was kickin ass with it in the demo. Also brad don't be so sensitive about dying.

Boobs are always prominently located. They're right there in the front.

I wish Vinny could've done this QL, but I guess that would've been too obvious.

I love how Vinny isn't included in this quick look, despite him having potential for Italian stereotypes and Empire Bay being faux-New York which he's come from. Actually, I don't love that, because Vinny not being here is making me sad.

"Yes, Brad. I commend you for not succumbing to Ryan's peer pressure. "

Brad's insistance on not pulling a Brad is making his quicklooks shitty. Stop being a bitch and be a team player, Jesus.

Can't show the boobs? I remember on that TouchMaster thing you guys played the shit out of strip poker and there were boobs.

Brad didn't pull a Brad! What is this?

Im not interested in this game because all it seems like its just driving shooting and tedious missions.

Looks very boring.  Like GTA4 without the action and GTA has some pretty boring action. Story steals from classic mob movies and looks lame.   Cheap. 
 
By far one of the least interesting games, I've sen in a while.  Hope it bombs, just so there wont be a 3rd and I never hear about it again. 

Brad is such a quitter. Unless I know how death looks in this game, I don't know whether I want it.

I'm all for a game focusing on role-playing over mindless distraction/destruction, but if that's your aim then why have an open-world at all?

Brad you pansy, I also wanted to see you die in a hail of bullets, but to no avail...PANSY!!!!

Brad is right about the linearity. I've done the first three chapters so far and there's not one moment where you aren't in a mission. Still a pretty good game. 

Jacking phone booths, causing traffic jams, shooting buildings... sometimes, it's the little things that intrigue me about a game :).
 
Seriously, though. This looks far more compelling than GTA IV. While GTA took itself too seriously and tried too hard, without having enough of the right stuff to do to take it at all seriously, Mafia 2 at least looks like it should be, as well as getting the tone and setting down (of which is a little more imaginative than "modern day New York").
 
And I can't tell if these comments from people about Brad "intentionally trying not to die lololol" are jokes or not :/. You mean, *gasp*, he was trying to play the game and had a relatively easy mission for once? This is unacceptable!!!

Man, such an anticlimactic ending.

Crazy horse was a bar in The Sopranos

I'm going to rent this game, Capice?

Why can't they show boobs? They violence but not nudity?

reviews for this game are ridiculous, why does it have to have annoying side missions to get a good review? everything about this game propels the storyline, and there is very few things wrong, and the game is still getting bad reviews. I really hope this doesn't kill the developer, because this game is really solid.

ad? why?

GAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!! SPOILY SPOILERS!!!!

If Brad is so bad at games, how does he have all the Achievements for Geometry Wars 2?

The camera is a bag of shit.

Jesus Christ. The camera is so horrible. 
 
Also, it's pronounced Jew-sepp. I am Italian. I know this for a fact. I really hate that.

Brad's a complete boring pansy for not going down in a hail of bullets to protect to his precious save game. He doesn't ever like the game!?

" Why can't they show boobs? They violence but not nudity? "

That camera is freaking terrible

Thanks for the QL.
The gameplay in this looks terrible, even though the design itself looks well done.
It should be a prerequisite in any open world game QL to go criminally batshit for at least 5 minutes 
If there are things limiting your ability to wreak havoc the developers missed the point. 
None of this driving with the flow of traffic bullpocky, and doing the intensely boring missions.
There is only one way to play open ended games after the story begins to bore you(usually about 10 hours for me) and only one reason to blow $60 bucks on one. Mayhem, so let's see it!
For some truly endless fun try: 
GTAIV-Alderney-on the roof of Mr. Fuk's-get wanted level-cops climb two ladders to get to you=totally vulnerable=AWESOME(btw helicopters don't come low enough to pursue you there for some reason)
Even more fun? Get codes for ammo

Shame brad says there isn't much to do, I wasn't really looking into this game I personally have grow apart from open world GTA style games they just get boring after mission and killing/ running people over can only take you so far.

Awesome quick look, guys! This has actually got me really excited to play this. 
 
Still think I'll just be giving it a rent though...
