Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

Miles is afro-latino though >___>

After the Rambo 4K Collection review, I'm confident to say Gamespot writers are 3x worse than IGN's.

this is based off a script, too, so someone wrote this out and the dude had enough time to read and think about it, and maybe go, "hmm..." before he said it aloud, lol

More weirdly toned language that was unnecessary yet had to be mentioned because the writer is possibly offended by Stallone's personalized CURSIVE handwriting lol

You're not supposed to be upset but it's a waste of a review considering the note is the focal point of the whole thing. Not the video or sound quality, features, case art, etc. but a stupid letter.

That's just the way the internet works now. Get ad-views any way you can, be it clickbait, stupendous amounts of filler content, or something ambiguously "controversial" that'll get linked on twitterbook and various messageboards - preferably all at once.

If the reviewer is Black then what is the issue? Why are you trying to control what Black people say?

if the reviewer was white and said the swagger of a white teen, Id still say what I said, why are you trying to control what anyone says?

The swagger of a white teen kicking open the double doors to a school. His rage intersecting with fear as he unzips his black dufflebag...

The new meme is, full of the exaggerated swagger of a black teen. It gives me goosebumps every time he does it, especially as the music begins to swell.
