David Jaffe Hates Nerd Sweat, Ponders Calling All Cars Failings

Kleptic - 357 days 11 hours ago

yeah...I mean it was fine for a $10 game I guess...was a blast when completely trashed with 4 others on some late night...but its by no means a must have title...

what I never understood was why everyone was getting so fired up about it...because it was from jaffe, it was almost like it was treated as a full disc released game...people whining about how short it was and stuff...its a $10 online game, almost entirely focused on multiplayer...it was what it was...I never felt it tried to be anything more than a goofy multiplayer competitive game worth 20 minutes at a time...

Jaffe traditionally does that..flips shat when media gets on his nerves in the release window of the game...same thing when TM: Black released, or just before it rather...people whining about how dark and how hard it was (despite it getting incredible reviews)...and he would fire back with the normal 'well you suck' attitude...however...a few years later, he admitted that the game was quite punishing in terms of difficulty...still one of my all time favorite games though, and I was one of the few that liked it more than Twisted Metal 2...which is also one of my top 5's for all time...

but Dear Jaffe...stop blogging anyway...and make Twisted Metal for the PS3...we don't need to hear anything from you until its a twisted metal ps3 announcement of some kind...you'll hear from my lawyers if its not released in 2009, also...

I Agree with Jaffe on the Gamestop issue. my only disagree is that he said "not all gamestop" I say all of them they carry the same damn policy.. buy for $5. Sell for $60. Only reason I will buy a game at Gamestop is whenn they carry specific pre-order "Limited" where no one else carries, other than that. Scroo'EM. PS I love CAC.

Calling All Cars is like a Mario Kart for PS3 but with a 10$ price tag. I mean it's by no means anything like Mario Kart but it CAN serve the same experience. Get yourself 3 more people and play the game, it's a lot of fun. It's just a bit shame that there weren't more modes included.

I actually liked that game and had many hours of fun with friends playing it. Dave needs to lighten up on himself, he did good by releasing that one.

I got GameStop sticker removing down to an art. I used to stretch the plastic or rip the sticker when I was trying to take it off, but now I've gotten pretty good.

It's sad...

I agree though...it was a great party game that anyone could pick up and play...drinking games based on CAC (common for us was everyone but the scoring player drinks the amount scored...1 second for 1 point, 2 for 2 points, etc....put it on 50 points to win, and you'll all be doing quite fine before its said and done) are insanely good for getting a party started...the 4 'pre-gamers' getting a few in the hole before the rest arrive worked out extremely well over the last few years...

you'll get depressed playing it by yourself though...as you know the entire time; 'this would be better with my friends'...online doesn't cut it either...

It makes me sick that so many people thinks this guy hung the moon. I like his games, but man he is gonna have to grow up one day.
