CNN's "Hardcore" Gamer Reviews 3DS

[Nathan Drake]

The review is so bad. The guy obviously has no idea what he's talking about.

It starts off bad when he talks about how this is good for a "hard core gamer like him" that "grew up on Halo." It just gets worse when he mentions that FULL 3D gave him a minor headache and made him slightly cross eyed after 20 minutes. Hey, guess what, when you're eyes aren't used to it, it's gonna be rough at first. He talks about augmented reality cards as if they are garbage even though they work and many people find them very fun for what they are.

Oh yeah, and it's apparently outdated. The dual-screen, folded design is that of the 90's, and that dang outdated cartridge media is still ever present. Oh yeah, and it uses a stylus for precise touches like those old outdated Palm Pilots.

Damn that battery too! Only lasting three hours with pumped up brightness, sound, and 3D. It's like Nintendo didn't mention that settings that high could make the 3DS battery only last about, oh, I don't know, three hours.

Ah man, good thing I didn't buy this outdated, horrible machine.
Damn, the guy is so dumb. Can't wait to get one of these myself at some point.

"We have no seen cartridges since the GBA days"

Did he totally forget the DS?

And "No Stylus in PDA's"

Did he again skip the DS?

Why is he forgetting the DS exists?

not to mention that the brand new, ngp (sony's "boost the power, don't worry about if it's fun" device) will also be relying on cartridges for game storage

i can't wait for the "halo generation" to start running the world... it's gonna be fun

 

[RupeeClock]

That has to the stupidest, most uninformed review I've ever seen from anyone on anything.

Hardcore gamers like us? We grew up on Halo.
AR Games? It's a shooting game, nothing else.
How DARE it use a stylus and a physical distribution medium?

 

[FluffyLunamoth]

So...he's just a dumbass, then.

 

[FireGrey]

"haven't seen stylus's for ages"
hahahaha

 

[Demonbart]

Someone please shoot that guy.
EDIT: Also, Halo=/= hardcore. NES, SNES, and Genesis, that's hardcore.
This guy must be Steve Jobs' personal cocksucker.

 

[FireGrey]

Someone please shoot that guy.

gimme some meth and a gun and i'll do it!

nice way of putting it

 

[Raika]

So now every Halo/CoD/whateverFPS game=Hardcore?
Shitty reviewer is shitty.

 

[wzeroc]

Shitty reviewer is shitty.

Amen to that.

Even HTC Touch Pro2 has a stylus. Heck, there's even a stylus made for iPhones. :|

Shitty reviewer is shitty. xP

 

[moodswinger]

He should lose his job from CNN and buttkiss at Apple. What at douche!

 

[stinkoman]

Since when are the fucking iDevices a legitimately useful gaming console? To be a good deal, it can't be outdated every fucking year. My iPod can't run fucking anything because Apple fucked all the 8gb users. The 3DS looks amazing and is well built. I had the opportunity to check one out at Target and, unfortunately, the damned thing was unplugged and the battery was completely drained, but it looked very nice. Definitely a better buy than a fucking iPod.

 

[nintendoom]

The reviewer is gay and so the review will be..
How did he became a Hardcore Gamer if he doesn't even know what the DS is???
Gay...

 

[Bladexdsl]

Oh come on everyone, the reviewer probably has no idea what he's talking about and probably doesn't know what Nintendo is. He's probably just reading the teleprompter. Okay, maybe he is the one who actually reviewed it. This doesn't actually appear on television right?

(Have to say, he has very awkward/weird facial motions when speaking though...)

Considering its from CNN, it probably did/will appear on TV.

Well...I don't have cable/any programming anymore, but usually the "tech" side of things are online only. At least, when I still knew what was on TV.
