noguns detected This started out as a quick rant, but morphed into an autism-fueled screed about guns, games, and Geoff Keighley. I apologize for nothing. Sorry. BONUS - A Dramatic Reading of Geoff Keighley: /watch/U6ogYE9Drf7Dg #BLACK #guns EEGG: This video about BLACK went live during the 2017 Eclipse, and includes the word "totality" at the end. I was pretty proud of that.

    @ianlove40317 years ago " not that i' m complaining, one black is more than enough. "
    i don' t care about much intensely, but that quote will likely stick i stumbled upon your enter the matrix video a few months ago and have been a fan since. This video was quite the lovely surprise, especially as someone who hardly knew anything about black and considered snagging an xbox copy for mad cheap. A quaint reminder of the 00' s edgy " shoot the foreigner while wearing sunglasses in the dark" aesthetic, but glad to know i' d be wasting my five bucks. Thanks!
    also, do you think you' ll ever talk more about the burnout games?

Still have fond memories of it, but it' s hard to play when the levels just go on for way too long with no payoff.

    @ChucksSEADnDEAD7 years ago It' s not so much " gun porn" butporn" i remember the reviews criticizing the " half to kill an enemy but there' s location damage for the headshot" as a dumb way to pad the game with artificialto make the gameplaybut without really offering that reward for the skill. It' s a console game, it' s made with lack of precision in mind, except for spread at range i' ve never had an issue with going for the head rather than the chest. There' s noin avoiding the direct fire if half of the cover elements explode in a ball of fire. It' s not so much that the game has hard sections but that many times you can only see the muzzle flash and not the enemy it' s coming from. You shoot back at the flash but what the hell are you hitting? A grey concrete block? Grey metal pipe? Grey fatigues worn by the enemy? The enemies had poor ai and i remember this being excused as " it' s just a dumb shooter based on dumb hollywood action movies! " so the mowing down of dozens of brain dead goons was forgiven. A lot of stuff was indeed taken from the movies, such as the excessive metallic clicking. ...Expand 5

    @I_am_not_a_dog7 years ago Got super excited when i saw you had a new video. Even more so when i realized you were covering black.
    i was so damn excited for this game, with i was mainly pumped for the environmental destruction. I remember criterion stating that you could blow apart an entire level, if you had enough ammo. That each bullet would physically deform the world.
    boy, was i disappointed. And really, the only game to offer the feature seems to be the upcoming crackdown.
    loved your coverage of the firearms.
    a suggestion?
    perhaps do a " tales of the gun" style episode- a history and review of video game firearms? As a fellow hoplophile, i' d be quite excited to see something like that from you.
