and its cool he was part of the gamechanger program. a few years ago jobo was a part of it. but that doesnt make his evaluation of the current video (which was posted 3 days ago by kipper is king) any more educated than us. because he wasn't part of the team that made the final decisions and produced the video. his opinions are purely speculation. what he learned previously is most likely changed. projects like these are fluid for a variety of reasons.


regardless, we've spent way too long talking about the dude instead of the game. i was just surprised that anyone was impressed with his video. after watching the first one a few weeks back, i found him pretty borish.
I couldn't disagree more my friend. I personally would much rather watch an impartial third party give an educated guess as to what is being shown then a EA employee towing the company line. You are right about one thing though, we've wasted our time posting about how you hated someone sharing their opinions and were baffled that another person found enjoyment out of it's content. A critique that I found annoyingly useless to share since it was a video analyzing the content of a game which this thread is based apon, hopefully others felt it was interesting........rage quit!
