Brad literally kept destorying those boxes even though you use them for the switch. I wish i erased my memory of OoT, would love to experience it as a new game again.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

lol @ the quicklook video.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
It was one of the funniest things I ever saw. I especially loved the *smash* "I feel like we're missing something obvious."
It feels like a movie moment, like in Harry Potter when Hermione is saying "A fire! But I haven't any wood..." and Ron reminds her to use her wand.
Maybe it's my fairly photographic memory about these kinds of things, but I couldn't help but cringe when he did that. However, we all have done similar crap in these kinds of games plenty of times before, so I don't blame the man for not remembering a ton about a game that he hasn't played since it came out.

It is modern game design that was to blame. It is so hand-holdy these days that it is fair to assume that if you were meant to use those crates for a puzzle they would be indestructible ;-)
This. I think I'm pretty damn good at video games, but I always forget to use the crates in Jabu-Jabu's belly for this exact reason. I've played through the game at least 3 or 4 times over the last 13 years, and each time, it takes me at least 20 minutes before I remember that.
Everyone misses things in games and feels like an idiot afterwards, it's just that Brad does it on camera.

You can make comments for a video for a reason, dickhead. Don't just come here and shit on Brad before you have produced your own Quick Look.
Probably just not a very good multitasker.@Nomin said:
Brad is such a gaming anomaly, He has an S rank in Doom for XBLAI have a feeling that Brad gets super nervous when doing Quick Looks because you have to be pretty damn good at games to get a S-Rank in Doom
The OP should really of just posted a comment under the video.
Aye. Brad's got skills in a number of genres. It's just that he gets hit hardest by the QL effect.@Nomin said:

That's really uncalled for.
It's obvious Brad is really good at games, but not when he's talking and recording videos at the same time. Not that big of a deal.
I, for one, can not carry on a conversation and play a game at the same time. There's a certain level of concentration some people need.

To be fair, this thread is pretty uncalled for as well.
Also, I think its that you get used to solving those switch puzzles with Ruto, so once you lose her you are like 'crap now how am I supposed to solve this?' and you end up missing very obvious solutions. It's just how the human brain works.@alternate said:

seems like most people couldn't actually figure out the actual meaning behind my post.
First of let me say that i've known Brad as a reviewer since GS days and follow him closely, one of my fav. reviewers next to Jeff, Secondly when i said lol" at the quicklook video i meant in a postiive way. IT was a really funny quicklook video and nostalgic because most of us were like that. I referenced brad playing it like for the first time as if i wanted that to be me in that situation, trying to figure stuff out in the game for the first time, i still remember it(althoug h not like that). People on here seem to think i'm taking the piss, i'm actually praising the video if anything, one of my fav. quicklooks for a while. You act like if Brad wouldn't laugh at it if he watches it over again. Lucikly for him he has a sense of humour.
Some of you need to take that dildo out of your ass and invest in some sense of humour. ...Or only that guy who randomely called me a dickhead because he thinks he's well hard on the internet.
What do you think the acronym "lol" actually means? Get rid of that Pilkington Avatar, he's much smarter than you.This "lol he can't play gamez"-attitude belongs in pre-school, not here. Though I guess Internet is the biggest pre-school there is.
I'm sure all quicklooks would be a thousand times more amusing if all you pros were doing them instead.

@CrazyChris does not have a Pilkington avatar, I do.
And my comment was not in reference to your post, but to the general reaction to the quick-look.
Brad is such a gaming anomaly, He has an S rank in Doom for XBLA.
Brad has stated before his affinity with Doom, an unfortunate quick look but he's certainly leagues above some other journalists in gaming.
