I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.
George Wood didn't fill his reviews with meaningless fluff, he delved right into the games and told us what we should like and hate about it. But more than that, he challenged the gaming industry and the very way we look at gaming today. Who else would be brave enough to take Eidos to task for not giving Lara Croft the rich, deep story she deserved? And who else would dare call his viewers stupid for not liking Donkey Kong Country?

Let's remember the greatest journalist the gaming industry ever had with this thread.

Donkey Kong Country isn't that special, although I've been hearing good things about the new ones on Wii and Wii U so now I'm interested, which one is better Imp Zone?

In the Imp Zone no matter what the question is, the answer is always Wii U.

Maybe they're arguing in bad faith, friend. This internet is a robber's paradise.

More gaming journalists should adopt the professionalism and gravitas George Wood adopted for his "Show My rear end to Kids" game show.
