Yeah she did look pretty good. Personally I prefer the late war version without the all black paint job and the cut down conning tower.

Irreverence is their forte. And, no, they don't only review or give good scores to FPSs.

They gave SH3 a 4 out of 5 I'm pretty sure.
That review for SH3 was one of the funniest I've seen them do. I've tried finding the video for it but to no avail. :x

As for what they normally play... well, let's say I've seen more than enough Mario Kart on there.

Heh I remember the SH3 review (too bad i cant find a video) they made fun of the british so bad.

Yup, they were pretty merciless...

what a bunch of chowder heads.

i am pretty sure they reviewed 1.0 because the crew management screen they show has crew with red bars. i know for a fact its not 1.2 and as far as i remember 1.1 wasnt like that? or maybe it was 1.1 that did make it like that...damn i cant remember but

if they are sick of ww2 games its prolly from too many fps and well what do they do...run around shooting **** with their gun like its a fps.

Did not like the alcohol laden barnicle sailor comments. Basically made a joke out of the genre. Not everyone wants to play car theft games:roll:

Yeah, that show is more for "entertainment" value than actually reviewing a game (any game). But I do give Adam credit in the middle of his piece for actually listing a lot of features of the game. He covered a lot of ground in a short time. It's clear he was reviewing v1.0 because of the crashes. My first review copy crashed like crazy, so I agree with his portrayal of the crashing. Thanks to the dev team for getting the first essential patch ready fast. Some reviewers have a policy of reviewing the game as released only. I have always had the policy I will review the game with patches, if time permits, and I have done follow ups to reviews to assess the game months/years later if subsequent patches and add-ons came out:

Command Aces of the Deep
Grey Wolf
Fast Attack

My goal is more slanted to giving the player the latest and greatest info on the game, not scoring the developer's results at the time of release. :ping:

I agree, X-Play bites. Already posted this, but wanted to say it again:yep:

They have some funny reviews on occasion, but this one just showed their complete ignorance at how to play a sub sim. I think almost every attack he was making was on the surface. Note the ignorant amount of destroyers heading at him while he's gunnin' it out on the surfac
