Full Jaffe PAX keynote posted online with added swearing

This video’s epic! Also, a reason on why it is David Jaffe is one of my favorite game designers out there, and in my opinion, one of the best.

@1

I totally agree, hes a fuckin’ legend. Im about to watch this now.

Jaffe is a try-hard. He has nothing of relevance to say about the industry or creativity, and he doesn’t have a single good game under his belt.

So God of War 1 & 2 are bad games? I’m not a personal fan but you can’t deny their popularity, both with 90%+ metacritic scores.

@4 I can’t deny their popularity, but I can deny their quality all I want. They’re shit spectacle fighters with no depth, masked by fancy graphics and QTEs.

@5, I agree, but just because we don’t like them, doesn’t make the majority wrong-They are good games.

@6 And as far as I’m concerned, I *do* think the majority are wrong and I *don’t* think they’re good game. I think they’re terrible games. Every single game he’s ever made has been terrible. All of them.

You’re quite the elitist.

@8 If having my own opinion based on my own personal capacity for critical thinking is “elitist”, then I guess I’m “elitist”. Not that I care. It’s what I think, and unless someone can adequately argue against my point in a debate, as far as I’m concerned I’m right.

Now, if you want to get into an actual debate about the quality of the God of War games…

Well I didn’t like GoW much either. Same goes for CoD, Battlefield, Halo, Deus Ex etc. Though I wouldn’t describe people who do like those games ‘wrong’. It’s obvious we just have different tastes.

Zzz. This guy loves the sound of his own voice. And who the fuck cares about Twisted Metal at this point?

@11 Apparently a lot of people, if you check the other thread. Lawl.

You’re mean to vehicle combat games. I loved Interstate ’76 and ’82.

Get a license for whatever engine Rockstar are using today, reactivate the franchise = Great succes!

I love to hear Jaffe talking on the game industry.. I miss his blogs. He keeps it so “Real.”
