My only complaint is the you said that you could throw someone over the balcony, instead of a balcony. I'm a nerd.

Yeah we should all go to Gametrailers, because their reviews are “top notch”……
Ok now that I got the sarcasm out of the way. I really like your reviews Kevin, and this is just another example of retarded idiots who are usually fanboyish morons that do not have anything better to do except bitch at people who do not let people hear what they want to hear.
I’ve supported GS and its people through thick and thin and personally I just ignore the people who bash me for it, because I like something different that isn’t the same dribble that they get day in and out. It reminds me of the idiots who don’t buy good games and hate on people that do like good games but will stay playing one game because “ITZ TEH ROXXARZ!!!111one1!! LULZ”.

I guess I’m done ranting, and keep up the good work Kevin

Shame on you, Kevin! You should no better than to try and do something different and interesting! You should know better than think that people can actually read!

Well I suppose it’s further evidence that a lot of people really don’t like to read. There was nothing wrong with that video review. If you didn’t like it, you just didn’t like it. It shouldn’t be necessary to exactly replicate the print view that exists *right* below the video link. At that stage, then what’s the point of the written review? Also saying that e-mail has “constructive” feedback is a little off the mark. Constructive criticism is supposed to be helpful and supportive, not snide cruel.

Chauncey, I’ve explained that video review and accepted plenty of good-natured criticism until I was blue in the face over it. This was meant to be a lighthearted look at the kind of messages I receive over various things.

As it is, telling me I am suffering from brain damage and am single-handedly responsible, by way of a single video review, of turning GameSpot into trash isn’t constructive in my book

Actually, Van Ord’s are almost the ONLY reviews on GameSpot.
Though I mostly agree with the email, the video review was rather poor. I was hoping for a more constructive response from Kevin though, considering it was constructive critisism that he received.

“the reason why GameSpot is slowly, but surely, turning into the piece of trash that we currently have today.”

How can it slowly be turning into something that it already is?

While I personally feel that the video review in question was a little too long, if any user wants a full review, read the actual text. That’s what they’re there for. Video reviews can have as much fun as they want as long as there is a proper text review to accompany it.

And I think it goes without saying that Van Ord’s reviews are the best on Gamespot.

I agree with Matt. I was a little disappointed with the video review as well but it was a fun change of pace. Also, I don’t mind actually reading my reviews as that person obviously does.

He really needs to lighten up. And learn to read. Its really not as hard as some people make it look.
