I think it's one of his better reviews. He nails a lot of things.

You know you are piece of useless shit when an 80 years old dude with walking cane strangles you to death one handed...
Tseng: Used to the bitter taste of refusal, this only serves to reinforce his greatest life lession yet.
Cloud: And that is?
Tseng: Bitches, man.

You mean the old guy drawing a piercing weapon from the top of his crane and then stabbing into the throat of the young guy?

Hahaha. 3:50 That was my exact reaction by the middle of the game, when hackingminigames appeared. I really prayed to god by the end that I wouldnt have to do them anymore.

Also, not only did he have a stabbing weapon, the guy was fighting with the other dude that was about to shoot him and he basically kicked his ass. He tried reasoning with the oldguy instead of fighting him, but he stabbed him. Really nightmare....

By the way, by naming a game about hackers "Watch_Dogs" trying to be edgy with the underscore they horribly failed. "watch_dogs" or "watchDogs" or even "WatchDogs" would have been okay. But they managed to use a naming convention that nobody uses.

Zero Punctuation (one of the only reviewer whose opinion I value) reviewed it:

In my opinion Zero Punctuation videos are terrible reviews, if you take them as a review anyway. It's very funny, I enjoyed watching all of them, but not even one was a good review. For starters, a good review would not concentrate on commenting the scenario of a game, as things can hardly get more subjective than that.

Well he mentioned one of my ideas as a good thing in his review of the first game I worked on, so he's the best reviewer on the world imo :D

Seriously though, for me personally anyway, in an ocean of tame, paid-for, scared-to-speak-their-mind reviewers, he is a welcome and refreshing entity.

Well I was watching it in the small linked window, and the second he pulled out that knife the review switched back to Joe, so I prolly have overlooked the knife.

Seems like someone turned off a bunch of features on the PC version but someone found out and reactivated stuff.
Maybe to make it look not too good on PC to avoid making consoles look bad? Could that really happen?

Only if the Xbow and/or PS people somehow bribed them to do it. To make the game feel like next gen on the consoles. Cause we have been on this "next gen" wordplay for so bloody long now and i think its the consoles main selling point atm. And it wouldnt feel "next gen" if the PC performed significantly better and left it in shame. Which everybody already knows PCs can do. Cant think of any other reason. PC or console they would still get the cash either way, doesnt matter what platform the costumer buys the game for. Or mybe they just felt bad for the consoles.
