Tim Rogers's discussions

i devoted a whole two minutes in my first video about this game to this exact point! said video is embedded in gita’s review if you wanna watch lol Read more

thanks dude; there’ll be More Stuff Soon . . . . . . for example, maybe i’m playing POKEMON . . . RIGHT NOW??? Read more

I included “Maple Leaf Rag” and “The Entertainer” *both* in one of my other videos and a commenter asked if the songs occurred in saloons in the game, to which I replied with a confession that they do not, which is in fact historically accurate. Joplin was certainly alive and writing music in 1899. “Maple Leaf Rag”… Read more

I see what you’re saying, though my very first (two!!!) point(s) in this video was about the lack of a PC version! I am right there with you about all this. If it were not inexplicably my job to play the hottest video games before they’re made available to the general public, I certainly would have waited for the PC… Read more

Thanks! I try to make em good!! Read more

Hey, thanks! I’ve been making video games and posting sporadically on Kotaku for about twelve years lol Read more

No! I was so shocked that we found out like *minutes* into RDR2, which makes the timing of my “joke” in this video here like a billion times funnier. Read more

I played the Xbox 360 version, available as a backward-compatible digital download, on my Xbox One X. It’s literally in 4K! Read more

There is a LOT of jitter on the manual aim. Heck, there’s almost as much jitter on the auto-aim. It was a jittery time in history. Read more

I’d say it’s a Mixed Bag Of Both . . . and I love a good mixed bag!!

Oh, I know! See my comment below for a nuanced explanation of what I mean by “I don’t like it.” In summary: I view it as optional, on the same level as choosing whether or not John Marston shoots De Santa or Escuella. The day before John Marston dies, he pleads with Jack to not grow up to be like him. I feel the game… Read more

Hmm, I was just being honest.

Wow, were you lying about not trying to sound like a jerk? Or did you sound like a jerk on accident? Read more

interestingly, despite its evoking a cultural memory of cowboys (usually through parodies, such as sam elliott in the big lebowski lol) sarsaparilla was marketed for pharmaceutical benefits and was thus more of a civilization beverage. it didn’t get as much distribution on the frontier as cartoons would have us believe… Read more

lol: i don’t like it. it feels very, very, very, very tacked-on, to be honest. it feels like the developers made it well after wrapping up everything else in the game. also, i wanted a chance to perpetrate the central joke of my hilarious Grand Theft Auto: The Movie screenplay that i wrote in a weekend in 2003 and… Read more

thanks :-O

god dang it, i swear i woke up this morning and immediately remembered that i meant to overlay a semi-transparent clip of undead nightmare over the part where i say “marston pondered the density of the nightmare which gripped him”. i coulda done it . . . there was enough time between me getting into the office and me… Read more

they sure don’t! i wanted to play the game again, anyway, and figured, “why not get paid for doin so” Read more

Yeah, I absolutely love it. Fun fact: I was a first-party marketing producer person tangentially involved with the Japanese release (which Capcom published). It’s pretty weird that they kept the words “Red Dead” in the title of the sequel. The hero’s name isn’t even “Red” anymore! Read more

naw dude i saw it . . . thanks!! Read more
