He is just a PR guy but man, he is like the only one in this industry who is kind of sympathic.


Fixed.

no. Just no.


name one.

And don't come up with

"used car sales man Tretton",

 

"psycho Cerny" or

 

"Never-funny Reggie".

 

Larry actually mentioned Uncharted 2 as one of his games of the year on his podcast for the Xbox 360.
He made an interview with the scribblenauts developers and gave them a chance to promote their game on his show, because he really liked that game.
He congratulated Naughty Dog for shipping The Last of Us and the great responses it got.

I can't think of anyone in this industry who does something like this.


Iwata, Miyamoto, John Carmack, Gabe Newell, Tezuka etc.

Just every now and again on his twitter feed I see him talk about Wii-U or games on other consoles that he enjoys.  Posts on Miiverse a lot too.  Sounded similar to what you were saying this guy does.

Also, just go into the quote tree and delete the earliest quotes.  It's a hassle and unfortunately there's no other way to do it, but it helps incredibly once conversations go on for a while for people reading the thread later.

Larry was made an ass of at E3 bullshitting with Angry Joe. Everyone saw him for who he truly is. All of those men are more personable than he is.

Actually Angry Joe proved himself to be a very bad interviewer. Interrupting the one you talk to?

And even after the 180 he made fun of himself. That was pretty cool actually.

You can't hate on him. You just can't.

Yes, he was a bad interviewer but he was right in the end and people saw Larry for who he is. He's just a reviewer and has made disclaimers numerous times that hes only interviewing for the fans and has no idea about the psychology of interviewing. I used to think Larry wasnt about bullshit, kind of like Marcus Beer in the same vein that he wouldnt cover up things but rather just not talk about what he doesn't know but hes a dick.
