"Guns, guns, and more guns"
|
Yeah...this one is kinda difficult. But, I figured the common thing were games, so... Anyways. Gamespot, who is a site for video games, has started a youtube series about the guns of games. And it's REALLY good. The presenter is Jonathan Ferguson, who is a close acquaintance, at least, of Gun Jesus(he's got a book at Headstamp Publishing, and has appeared in several of Ian's videos) and, more importantly, the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in Leeds, UK. If you're at all interested in the actual guns that show up in certain games, I really suggest you go take a look. Not only is Mr. Ferguson highly knowledgeable, as you'd expect, he's also very clearly a person who has actually PLAYED many, if not all, of these games. There are a couple of other videos in the playlist, referencing other things, but they're pretty "meh". The videos with Jonathan Ferguson, on the other hand, are all gold!

These fuckers really just gonna straight-up jack Ahoy's content, huh. --- "She's old, she's lame, she's barren too, // "She's not worth feed or hay, // "But I'll give her this," - he blew smoke at me - // "She was something in her day." -- Garnet Rogers, Small Victory FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards. |

YouTuber XBoxAhoy has been doing his "Iconic Arms" series for several years. He does really interesting, very slickly-made videos about, well, iconic weapons in video games (also video essays about the effect of the Cold War on video games, the history of graphics, that kind of thing). And now a large corporation is basically doing the same thing but with a slightly different format. I realise "British man talks about guns" isn't a trademarked concept, but it's still a little galling. --- "She's old, she's lame, she's barren too, // "She's not worth feed or hay, // "But I'll give her this," - he blew smoke at me - // "She was something in her day." -- Garnet Rogers, Small Victory FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards. |
