Forums - Gaming Discussion - I think Angry Joe has to stop reviewing multiplayer console shooters.

No, he needs to stop reviewing games that no one cares about. Its not just that but his channel has dropped in quality a lot. He barely does reviews and all he ever talks about is "training" for his "angry army". Since when do you need to train for a fucking online game?


There is just one problem with here and that is a lot of people care about COD, even though some uppity gamers don't. LOL...I have no clue about his Angry Army, but he's really slacking on reviews these days even though he has finally purchased next gen consoles this gen. His Far Cry review should be good. I loved his Far Cry 3 review, but then again its single player. He only has to deal with CPU there and not exactly anyone real in general.

You know... I saw AngryJoe reviews COD:AW, it feels desperately for some reasons. Poor Joe.

Translation:  I only want reviewers who love the series/genre to review the game.

Cause that would sure as hell be a fair review.  While I'm at it, let me ask the fans at the next foodball game who is going to win the Super Bowl.  Should be an unbiased crowd and I'll get a perfect reprentation of the whole worlds views.


Tis better to give a well thought out review than a half-assed one. The best way to have an unbiased review is to have it done by someone who specializes in certain types of genres and split it up across various reviewers or else . What serious FPS gamer is going to take what he has to say seriously when hes not so great at shooters in the first place. Would you ask someone who isnt a connoisseur of wine what makes a great wine while in conversation while tasting it yourself? Eventually all that matters is whether you liked the wine, but if he knows what he is talking about then he could direct you towards the type of wine that you want to drink and others like it.

I cannot wait for his Far Cry 4, Dragon Age, Shadow of Mordor,Quantum Break or Sunset Overdrive reviews, but this? I don't know if I am looking forward to his Halo MCC review if he even does it. There were so many other games and I respect his opinion, but we can tell here his bias of not playing multiplayer shooters got in the way of it being as great as his other non-shooter reviews. He knew there would be backlash too, since he responded to it before he even started his review. He admitted that he barely even played the multiplayer LOL.

He's the only reviewer on the planet that realizes average isn't 7.5. That makes him the man with one eye on a planet of the blind as far as I'm concerned.

This^ 

 

People need to understand that Angry joe's 6 isn't the same as IGN's.

 

Big site reviewers have short number range when it comes to reviews

basically:

9+: must have

8+:average

7+:stable shit

6+:Shit with bugs or anti-consumer's features but you can play it

5+:Shit with bugs AND anti-consumer's features but you can play it

4+: Shit so broken you can't play it

3+: It causes damage to you machine

2+: don't even boot

1+: it's basically printf("hello world");

 

in other words,when a IGN gives a 7 for a game,the game is shit or they are against the game for some reason...

 

Angry joe knows how a score range should be but people are so used to the doritocracy model that they think AJ is wrong....

no, he doesn't "have to stop reviewing" these games

you just need to find people whose opinion you value more highly on that specific subject

That isn't really my point. Have you seen the review? He hasnt reviewed a ton of games and the one he decides to review is of the game hes billed to be the most controversial reviewer of. He even acknowledges it from the beginning. It becomes painfully obvious that he is reviewing the game for hits rather than because it is a genre he even likes.

It was my mistake to state that he should stop (because obviously I cannot stop him) but I feel he should think twice when it comes to FPS. His review has more of a bias coming out of him when he deals with multiplayer shooters. He even admitted to not even properly playing the multiplayer for a certain amount of time. You're right though, thats why I recommended Robingaming. Check out the review from Robin and the video gameplay. One is terrible at multiplayer shooters and doesnt exactly like it and the other does and even though he has criticisms of the genre they are more balanced.

I agree with you, but that isn't my issue. Did you watch the review? He knows people aren't fans of how he reviews multiplayer shooters in general. He even admitted that he didnt play much of the multiplayer to begin with. His only proper review portion was for the single player. That was top notch as usual.

He's going to review Dragon Age i guess, hopefully positive review & cheer.

Yeah, about that multiplayer console, he(Joe) hates peer 2 peer host & rather play PC version for dedicated server choice, but the problem is false ads.
