Why were brit reviewers such tonedeaf retards in the 90s
>>
That was a good thread, nice to see you're still malding.
>>
>>11986914
It was bollocks innit
>>
How many times are you going to make the same thread?
>>
>>11986925
Mom said it’s my turn to make the thread.
>>
>>11986907
Tonedeaf then, on-point now.
It's really not a great game. Just look at the dungeon design.
>>
OP absolutely cucked by Big British Cock.
>>
>>11986907
its just a bit of banter mate.
avin a laff innit
>>
>>11986907
Someone needs to find rob and ask him if he actually played the game.
>>
>>11986907
Britbongs have always been miserable cynics about everything, Yahtzee made a whole career out of it.
>>
it's funny to see their reviews of stuff that's culturally alien to them, like Madden and the like.
Shame America never got stuff like Brian Lara Cricket so we could see the equivalent.
>>
>>11987342
Those types are only if you're southern and spiritually left wing. Alternately, there's plenty of Tom Skinners.
>>
>>11986907
Were Brits behind mudcore and brown and bloom?
>>
>biggest empire mankind has ever seen, conquered the whole world
>considered a first world country with good enough quality of life
>people are miserable and cynic
'For what profit is it to man if he gains the world, and loses his own soul'? Matthew 16:26 I believe.
>>
>>11986907
Why are Englishmen all named "Rob"?
>>
>>11988992
We were flying in the 90s, the dull kitchen sink drama portrayal is left wing revisionism.

>Mega Man Evatards are still malding over this
Fucking LOL

>were

>>11991232
Funny part is if you check reviews from the era, even by Megaman 4 magazines were like "these are great games but holy fuck they're all the same please offer us something unique Capcom??"
>>
>>11989683
The 90s were good.
/thread

>>11991261
>why can't these games be more unique?
>makes a unique game nothing like the others
>why is it so colorful and lively?
>>
>>11988992
>conquered the whole world but left everything in a mess
Unironically 90% of the world's problem can be traced back to the British Empire.
>>
>>11991261
In the same magazine though?
>>
>>11991552
Yeah you wouldn't exist without it.

>>11991474

>Here’s the kind of game that reminds you why Japan keeps leading the pack. From the very first level you are leaping across bottomless pits, slashing through enemies, and squaring off against rad bosses. The action never lets up. Controls are razor sharp, stages are packed with variety, and the pace keeps you locked in for hours.

>Visually it is a showpiece. Bright backgrounds, fun characters, and fluid animation that makes every move feel alive. The soundtrack pushes just as hard, pumping out tunes that make you want to keep going even after a tough loss.

>Most important: it just feels good to play. Every challenge is tough but fair and every victory feels like an achievement. This is the kind of action platformer that proves Japanese studios know how to mix style and substance better than anyone else.

>Bloody hell, what a load of bollocks this is. Another so-called smash hit from the land of karate and karaoke madness. This one's all flashy sprites and more bright colours than the Teletubies. Oh and a soundtrack that bangs on like a drunk lad with a saucepan. The Yanks will tell you it is a masterpiece. We say it is just about tolerable if you’ve got sod all else to do.

>The levels look grand at first, then the game starts taking the mickey out of you like a right tosser. Traps everywhere, a main bloke who bounces about like a prat with jumps tighter than a bird's minge, and bosses that hit harder than your dad after six pints. Plain rubbish, innit.

>And yet, you keep going back for more, like a daft mug. Once it gets its claws in you, you and the other wankers swear, kick the telly, and still fire up another round. The bloody thing is harder to put down than a pint on a Friday night. Addictive? Sure. Clever? Not a chance. If you're the sort of bloke who enjoys being mugged off in the teeth and wasting hours of your life, fill your boots. For the rest of you lot who can't be arsed? Bin this Nipponese dross.

These people don't appear as downtrodden and disillusioned as todays brits.
>>
>>11991814
The early 2000s were a really comfy time in the UK. Especially pre-Iraq (which was the point people really started to sour on Blair).
>>
>>11989683
The 90s were the British decade. Elton John, Spice Girls, James Bond Revival so big it inspired Austin Powers. England was favored to win the world cup in 90, 94 and 98, London wasn't a shithole yet and the common man could have a smidge of pride in their cultural heritage.

> England was favored to win the world cup in 90, 94 and 98

They didn't even qualify in 94
>>
>>11991814
See >>11989504

>>11992005
But they were favored to win before the qualifiers began.

>>11992448
And your grade school teachers told you that you had so much potential.
>>
I see this thread 10 times more often than I see an actual Mega Man Legends thread.
>>
>>11992604
It's called "primary school" here.
>>
OP is absolutely fucking enraged, how many times has that same image been posted now.
>>
>>11986907
this mega man shit doesn't quite hold a candle to maniac miner for the ol' speccy, innit
>>
>>11986914
This picture has been posted every week for the last 10 years
