Wow...
17 hours? Only took me 5hrs 48mins...
Jeez. I thought it was pretty good...
We don't know what the gamers among you make of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but here's one young Brit's analysis of it after an evidently intense 17 hour session at the console (NSFW): Well, suffice it to say that since posting his thoughtful critique last week, this petulant young man has become a bit of a YouTube …
If he didn't like it, why did he play it for 17 hours straight? Not surprising that he's a bit upset at having wasted all that money & time, but then again the sequence of him punching the wall obviously shows his pain threshold is higher than most folks so maybe he didn't mind playing a game he didn't like.
As to the age issue, his YouTube account says he's ner-ner-ner-19, so that's ok.
I TOTALLY AGREE WIF YOUR ENLIGHTENED POINT OF VIEW! That poor yoof never saw it coming! Our yoofs need to be protected from predatory vidya game studios. And soon, before all our plaster walls have little knuckle dimples in them.
inb4 brigade of commenters posting their standard drivel about personal responsibility, nanny state... LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!
Why play a game you don't like?
Why do you care if you finish a game?
Why does drinking milk have anything to do with a game?
Why punch a wall and not break the game?
Why put the video up on YouTube?
Why is this guy allowed to be without a care worker long enough to make this video?
In fact, just why?
With any luck he's already topped himself after listening to a pop song he hates for 48 hours straight.
That, children, is why drugs are bad.
Sadly, there's no icon for the dole office. If you're gonna post a video of yourself losing the plot because a game is too hard, don't apply for a job in IT.
You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting.
Took me just under six hours, including the airport massacre, I was going slowly.
This chap however appears to be a prime candidate to bee seen on the news wondering around the streets, in only his underpants weilding an axe at passing pensioners.
But do not concern yourself, according to the old bill and govt, these are extremely rare cases
I would like to sit in on his job interviews in years to come, when the interviewer has done his background research (i.e. Googled the candidate's name) and found this video. Whatever he tries to do, wherever he goes, this clip will haunt him for some many, many years to come.
And he made it himself. And posted it himself.
What a twat...
Paris, well, because she knows how to make a video clip...
did that make anyone else want to vomit?
and one other thing.... to the load of people who posted various "i completed it in 3hours 12 minutes and 3 nanoseconds while having a wank and asphyxiating myself" that's firstly nothing to be proud of and secondly not a good thing in terms of the game. And it makes you look like fools.... pay £45 ~ £55 for 6 hours of gameplay that is apparently extremely easy to beat, and the (frankly) generic multiplayer?
The only reason everyone keeps going on about this game is because activision spent more money than god has hyping it up. It's nothing special its just another bloody FPS. and a sequel at that.
fail.....
Let's not be too hard on the chap. Even if he's for real, compared to most of the people who post comments on YouTube, he's really quite lucid, rational and level-headed.
I mean really, reading most YouTube comments makes me wish I could somehow steer this entire planet into the heart of the sun.
OOF That was pretty grim, and I doubt it was a spoof. Even if it was it was far too much. Its funny how on the internet everyone is a cunt, but thought el reg commentards had a bit more to them than to join a world wide chorus of putting a fucked up kid down.
The Response video is piss funny, however.
/Hippocrite.
Heh. I guess I'm old now and have my own teenage kids and think about these things more. It was a rather pitiful display.
my guess is he kept getting his ass fragged online by young(er) punks, and after 17 hours was ready to blow. Prolly needs a nappy change and a warm bottle and he'd go right off to sleep.
The tit in the first vid is proof why people should have to pass a psychological examination, before being allowed to have access to the big wide, unfiltered internet....
An intelligence test should be mandatory to access to a pc as well.. an IQ of 70 should keep folk like him from causing irreversible harm to others :D
To be fair, I got 7 horus out of the single player campaign (and about the same out of split screen) for £26 from Morrissons :p
I think actually despite peoples frequent argument that its strength is the multiplayer, the singleplayer is very underrated, it's a good bit of storytelling for a game.
Still, roll on Mass Effect 2.
