It's hard to take the name "Matt" as a serious badass. His name should've been "Dirk", "Lance", or even "Harry". Harry Hazard has a nice ring to it.

They're releasing a game that parodies a lot of classic PC games on consoles only? That's like the biggest slap in the face in gaming history.

This better come to PC soon.

I love the idea of making fun of ol' school graphics and gameplay and crates n all that, but don't you think including all those things will make this one huge dose of generic? I mean tell me that gunplay when he was shooting those 2D wolfenstein guys who phased away when they died looked fun... can you? Because to me it looked awful, a man running back and forth, running over ammo, getting shot at in all directions and not dying because he's running around so ridiculously that the obviously retarded AI can't hit him or won't hit him. I'm sorry but to me it looks like trying to make fun of all these things is dooming this game to be a victim of it.

The controls looked like it was being played by a child. Then I realized it was a console-only game and being played on a gamepad.

Other than that, looks great, love the humor.

A brilliant idea. Hopefully it resonates well with people outside of the hardcore crowd.
