This "professional video game journalist" shows how his profession is serious business. Professionalism?!?! LULZ.

Don't ask what Lindemann did to his copy of Spiderwick Chronicles.

For some psychotic reason, Oblivion is that guy's GOTF. Also, I heard him on a podcast around the time of Skyrim's announcement, and I believe he reached orgasm.

This isn't really stunning.

I like games as much as the next dude, but I am not gay for them and I most certainly don't want to have it's babies like this guy.

McElroy usually annoys me, but I find this debacle to be a whole lot of nonsense. Is it a crime to be excited for a game, professional or not?

I'll likely react in a similar manner when Skyward Sword shows up. Yes, I'm not getting paid to write about it, but, as a fan of a game, I'd rather read a review from someone who really dug the last game in the series then someone who's apathetic about it.

Impromptu poll: Should I make a McElroy-inspired video? Yes/No

Note: Democracy isn't true in this case. I'm likely not going to do this. :P

I like how suspenseful that first gif is. ;D  I would totally support the idea of replacing review scores with gifs showing how much the reviewers here liked the game.
