The real reason why Nintendo fans find KB annoying is that he made fun of the wii in that one video...how can someone possibly hate on that guy ?
No. The shots at the competition were long after I was tired of this fool (which makes it even worse, of course).
He always acts like a douche, whether it's something like this, or trolling the competition (see the Move one). All the while not being funny, but looking more bitter than anything.
... When I think about it, his act reminds me of Stephen Colbert. I'm not exactly a fan of that guy, either.
In general, I also don't like when companies attack the competition - If they're going to do it, it better be damn funny. From what I've seen, neither Nintendo nor MS do this, while Sony does, and it isn't doing me any favors for warming up to their games.
Exactly. Plus besides all that, he seems so...contrived? I feel like I'm just watching the end result of a bunch of marketing executives sitting around, scheming, thinking, "Okay. We need somebody who's funny. Universal. Edgy. Smarmy. Disparaging of the competition..."
And so on. He's annoying, douchey, doesn't say anything particularly funny, and the ads are just way too self-satisfied and inauthentic.
finallys someone else that feels the way I do about the KB adds. I could'nt have said it any better myself.
