What They're Learning at College

Zero Punctuation from Escapist Magazine dot com.
You send your baby off to a nice private school and one day he wanders home. So we've been enjoying some mother-son bonding moments over these crude yet hilarious cartoon offerings that review video games. This guy is the King of Snark. His review of Guitar Hero III was spot-on. I picked one with somewhat less naughty language so as not to give anyone a case of the vapors. Enjoy!

I hate to say it but I could get addicted to this guy's accent and sense of the inappropriate.

Claire said...

LGS -ditto for me too! He is deliciously inappropriate.

Jane said...

Is it bad that I have NO idea what this guy is talking about?!

He does have a lovely voice though :)

C said...

OMG, that's hilarious! But does the guy EVER breathe??

Jay said...

That's pretty awesome, thanks for hooking me up.

Claire said...

tess -it's probably good that you have no idea what he's talking about. Video games are a tool of the devil, don't ya know.

candace -no and believe it or not his other vid reviews are much faster (and much more inappropriate, so therefor much more fun).

jay -you're welcome!

OMG that was HILARIOUS!!! I loved it! It was so "Pythonesque". Like Lone Grey Squirrel, I too could get addicted to this guy's accent and humour!

val said...

Claire said...

jojo -I know, I love his accent too! He probably looks like a toad in real life, LOL.

val and ann -us 'stupids' in the US are ridiculously in love with certain accents and I don't know why.

This was completely the primer on the current world of gaming that this Old Lady has been needing.

Love that man, btw.

I'm not a gamer, but that review was fairly brilliant.

Merry Christmas, Claire! Enjoy your geek movie.

He is too funny! Gotta love the Brit's sense of humor.

Merry Christmas and best to you and the family in the new year.
