Hi everyone! The simplified format for this week is temporary due to my international travel schedule, thanks for your patience!
Finally, Barbie & Her Sisters: Puppy Rescue! :P
Seriously though. Forget BLOPS 8. FALLOUT 4 NEXT WEEK!!! I’ll be booting it up at 10pm on Monday! Woot for digital. :D
About time with an english version of tomba 2 !
So, Ryan, can you give any news or hints on when Vue will get to a wider release?
Damn it Ryan, I’ve read you almost every single time since launch, and you do get lazy a good deal of time. Seriously! How hard is it to snap a few pictures on? Thats the minimum you should have to do.
Don’t want to make you feel bad, but seriously! Also have a set date! Sometimes you post fridays, some late sundays, and when we are lucky thursdays. Do you not get paid for this!?
(All this week is golden week for PS4 releases! And you give us a lazy post that doesn’t give much information and is also overshadowing smaller titles.)
Eblanc2012:
Indeed. It is in my opinion that we get a new moderator on this blog. A moderator that isn’t afraid to answer more than a handful of questions; one with a more Playstation-type attitude; not ‘I’m on a trip and can only do so much…’. It’s time for a change.
^^ Agreed. He’s never been good here. Yet, people praise him because he always says “Beyond!” back to them? Do people who work at Burger King sing the McDonald’s jingle all the time because of where they used to work?
Ryan, respect your job and do your job. If you “can’t” do it, then have someone else step up. People from around the world visit this website because it is often the #1 place to get information about new and upcoming games, and you are the only person who so frequently lets us down.
Also, stop referring to yourself in the third-person, by your last name. You aren’t a cartoon celebrity. Shuman and Rubenstein are the only guys who are awesome enough to pull that off, and they have/had too much class to do that anyway.
Not sure where all the Ryan hate is coming from (and not looking to start an argument. The other folk are entitled to their opinion. I just want to balance the scales a bit.) I think you are doing a fine job and think its refreshing that when other (important) aspects of your job effect your post, you just come out and say it. Anyone who works for a living knows that priorities shift all the time and I enjoy that you are candid enough with your audience to lift the curtain a little. You keep on being you, man. You are appreciated for it.
Sony needs to advertise Driveclub BIKES a little better it’s buried in the store.
DC BIKES is so fun and a great patch just went live adding private lobbies, new level cap, new tracks and more!
Wow, you all are a bunch of ungrateful little (words I can’t say on here but, trust me, you’re grandparents would be offended).
I’d LOVE to see any of you travel to another country and back in the span of a week and almost immediately come back to a highly demanding job at a very popular company.
Y’all need to be more understanding/realistic. Ryan is a very nice guy and it bothers me immensely that anyone would be this rude to him. It’s unjustified and undeserved.
He doesn’t have to do this at all. You guys could just not.. I don’t know, be lazy and look up the new releases yourselves on Google.
Obviously none of you took heed of the “OPEN TO EVERYONE, BUT DON’T BE A JERK” warning when commenting.
I’m looking specifically at PanTheMan16 btw. EVERYTHING he said is nonsense. Rude, unjustified, mean, jerky nonsense.
Show some respect man.
@jgrizzle358 – Wasn’t a jerk, just because you don’t agree. Keep your comments relevant to the post/poster, rather than pick fights with other people here.
My post was objective, rational and logical. Blunt, but this flakyness happens far too often.
@PanThe”Man”
then do the job yourself.
God forbid there’s no pictures for those too lazy to read.
@j”grizzle”358 – I think people are more bothered by the lack of any write-ups. Photos are nice, but not a necessity.
1. Highlight the game you want to know more about
2. Press Ctrl + C
3. Open a new tab
4. Go to Google and click in the “search” box
5. Press Ctrl + V and hit Enter.
Problem solved :)
y’all are just mad because you have to put in some effort. Boo hoo.
Oh man. Fallout 4! YES
Gunner: Not hate .. Business.
Jgriz: Not ungrateful to anyone who has an excuse not to post a few images and answer a few of peoples legitimate questions. He can upload a video (paid for by activision), but not pics? He can respond to a greeting but not gaming questions? I wouldn’t get away with this at my job. It’s not about being a jerk. This scenario is like that of being fired. IT’S JUST BUSINESS. Damn jobless teens understand NOTHING.
^This.
LOL! “Jobless teen” thats funny. Im 26 and a homemaker, Let’s Player and PlayStation MVP. Only two of those things pay me in money. One of them page me and video games. But all of them are work.
No I’m just a guy with a soul who knows that playstation employees are human just like the rest of us and not robots.
Also you guys are not his boss so it’s not like your standards matter anyways. He doesn’t have to listen to you he only has to listen to whoever told him it was okay to take it easy on this post this week
Seems like you people have some sort of superiority complex. You think everyone has to bow down and meet your demands. You appear to lack any sympathy or understanding and are probably the kind of people who would fire someone before missing 1 crumb when they sweep the floor.
Get off your high horse is this. Either do the job yourself or shut up
*sigh* blasted speech-to-text mishearing me…
pays* me in video games
for* missing
high horses*
anyways…
also, do you people realize blog posts are only like… 2% of their entire job? (or that’s what one of them told me anyways) so I doubt anyone on their end cares at all about your pointless, first world problem nitpicking.
LOL @ “Im 26 and a homemaker, Let’s Player and PlayStation MVP.”. You have officially and permanently invalidated yourself. Now go get a job.
a homemaker IS a job fool. Look it up.
Also, if you don’t think Let’s Playing is a job then tell that to people like Markiplier and PweDiePie who literally make a living off of it. It’s their career.
Just because YOU live in the old days and have outdated views doesn’t mean everyone else has to conform to YOUR standards.
It’s work and I get paid for it, therefore it’s a job.
The point still remains that everything you said about Ryan is an opinion that falls in the minority. You’re just a big jerk. Plain and simple. And if you read the comments I’m obviously not the only one who thinks so.
But, of course, ANYONE who judges people for their employment status is, in fact, a jerk. Like it’s any of YOUR business. You don’t have to have what the conservatives consider a “REAL job” (another outdated, conservative opinion) to have a heart/soul.
and before you make some kind of outdated, sexist comment about me being a a male homemaker, just know that it’s 2015 and we no longer conform to gender identity standards.
Oh my goodness. I did not criticize you because you are unemployed, but the fact that you have absolutely zero experience in the workforce is increasingly evident. This is relevant when you are attempting to argue work ethic.
You tried to prove that you have “jobs”, so let’s break it down here. 1) Homemaker is not a job, unless you consider your welfare check to be a paycheck. If a so-called homemaker is staying home because they are caring for someone, then it is respectful, as long as they aren’t only doing it to exploit anything. You aren’t doing anything, noble though, so it’s just being a bum.
2), I looked up your YouTube channel (mentioned in your PSN profile). You do not make any money on that. If you take all of the combined views on your videos and multiply them by.. about 13, you might almost have as many views as a single video on my channel.
3) MVP? I’m not even going to waste my time. But I can’t imagine any of the PS officials or MVP’s are happy with the way you are attempting to represent them.
Now that this has been cleared up, I’m not going to respond to you again.
Everything you said is more evidence of how big of an a-hole you are.
I’ve shown this conversation to numerous people and they all took my side. And they all agree you’re a self-entitled jerk with holier than thou expectations.
You come across as a republican/conservative and those are BAD people Seeing how you place YOUR work ethics on other people, as if you had any right to tell some at PlayStation how to do their job. LMFAO. That takes some gonads. Ryan doesn’t have to listen to you, he’s above you. You are NOT his boss and if his boss had an issue with it, he/she’d take care of it. He doesn’t need you and your rude minions cyber bullying him for no other reason than lazy white people problems.
Now, get off your high horse and join the rest of us in 2015
p.s. the opinions of people like you don’t matter to me. I could tell by your first comment and the way you worded it you were a bad guy. A good person would have been nice, even if they were being critical.
