    I hope the CA ETW team sees this vid. The SEGA suits too. Not that they'd care one way or another.

    I liked it better when he got banned from X-Box live. That man sure has gone through a lot.

    True kinda none-the-less.

    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I have, and I don't see why we need this here. Maybe I'm a bit grumpy today, but I don't care for this.

    I don't really have to many problems with my game (lucky i guess) but i found it to be damned hysterical!

    People need to be a little less uptight imo. I blame both those who are not constructively critical (though i can understand thier frustation a bit more than the second group) and those who jump on every criticism of the game and tell people its thier fault... it may be the case occasionally but often it may not be and to be told your game isn't working because your too stupid to work a computer* must be infuriating

    *is what those getting told its thier driver's ect. may feel like sometimes..
    In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!

    I actually always preferred the strategy side of TW more than the battlefield.

    I though it was really well done. I 've seen his other versions and they were all nicely put together, but then being English I don't have any PC 'hang ups' about Hilter so for me they are just a clever use of a bit of film fottage.

    Personally, I'm not have any of the problems with the game he mentions either, but I realise that other people are. The worse that could happen is that some people who could play the game successfully don't buy it because of the negative publicity.

    Or maybe you just don't want it here because it's bad-mouthing CA for shoddy work, and a lot of people here simply can't handle that, as we see in every thread where even the slightest complaint is made.

    I thought that was hilarious, and this is from someone who plays the game at least 4 hours a day and enjoys it immensely, despite its shoddy workmanship.

    Have to admit, one line was really funny. "Did anyone even play the game at CA?". You really have to wonder, also, all those reviewers, did they not play the game and see "Wow, look at these bugs!"

    I don't have too many issues with the game so I still love it. However, I thought the video was great.

    It was fun watching it, especially knowing what the real discussion was about (having watched the movie about 6 months ago).

    Its okay to critisize and vent some. And CA does need to hear the good along with the bad. Afterall, many of us are passionate about this game and the series or we wouldnt keep coming back here and talking about it.

    Hmm... maybe the reviewers got a perfect game and CA is giving us the buggy version just to toy with us......

    Personally there aren't THAT many bugs as some people seem to think there is. The huge downfall is that there are some bugs that make the game broken that should have been caught on day one. Anyways I don't have a single one of the bugs in the movie and haven't heard of some of them like screen flicker?

    Anyways with the bugs aside ETW is an amazing game and I will be playing it for sometime until the next total war.


    OH and what ever happened to the beta to the multiplayer campaign that we were suppose to get "shortly after release." It has passed the shortly after release time so what is going on?

    Hey that was a very funny video. I only had one problem with it. Showing a crazy, angry Adolf Hitler, who is upset about a poor quality game , probably has little effect on anyone because he was crazy and upset about a lot of things....

    IF on the other hand, there was a video of a crazy, upset Gahdi, Martin Luther King, or even Churchill; that video could have more of an impact!

    Historical bias.

    Anything related to that time period from Germany is banned anywhere (especially in Germany), basically, though, there are generally no problems with the Soviets, even when they killed more people and were just as bad as the Germans ever were. The soviets, however, are the cool dictator t-shirts, while German period wasn't.

    Obviously, sprouting garbage that Russians, Germans, English, Internationally from that time period are offences. As it was basically all politically incorrect in the sense of racist/sexist/discrimination views.

    Interesting. I agree with Mel Brooks' philosophy: the best way to oppose views like those espoused by Hitler is to ridicule them. There's no better way to tear Hitler down than to laugh at him.
