    This game must have been designed for babies, because there has been no way to take damage, yet the player has been given 7,000 health packs. Also, the dialogue is highly appealing to babies, according to my focus group data, but they didn't enjoy the ratmouse. Except the babies from Jersey. They all loved the ratmouse, and they wanted it to ride a motorcycle, wearing a little red helmet. They suggested a game mechanic where you gave the mouse a cookie.
    Dax Shepherd probably did the voice for commander Shepard in Mass Effect. For continuity purposes. Voice over actors like to voice characters that have the same name. It turns them on. Full stop. Edward Carnby, shoot those zombos.
    This game is what i played as an infant in my mothers womb. PS Move, that's how. Sixaxis motion controls. As a baby infant, this was the best game. By featuring on this channel, you have ruined my childhood. You and my dad. I bet you guys secretly love this game cuz its the best. 10\10\10.
    Also, this game is insulting to midgets. the little brother is clearly a dwarf and not a midget, because midgets have proportional body parts, unlike dwarves.

      And; don't forget, he's also responsible for that awful CHIPS movie with Michael Pena from a few years ago, which tried to be like the 21 Jump Street and 22 Jump Street movies, and like Hot Fuzz, instead of trying to develop it's own identity, and just had people wondering, "why remake CHIP's?", and the answer was: "because 21 Jump Street was a great movie, so let's rip that off for some reason", and apparently, Dax Shepard had a "good idea", for remaking CHIPS, with Michael Pena, when they didn't. It was just an r-rated version of an old 80s TV show, that either you, your parents, grandparents, or maybe even, your aunt and uncle watched when they were kids, or something like that. I definitely don't like Dax Shepard; he just sucks as an actor. Does anyone legitimately like him in anything? Like, for real?

    • @shawnfields2369
      @shawnfields2369 Před 2 lety

      Yes, but not really. Both the book Jumanji and the book Zathura, were both written by the same author, Chris Van Allsburg(probably misspelled that, sorry). This book/movie comes after Jumanji, but I prefer Jumanji, because it had Robin Williams in it. Much better. But I've seen Zathura, and both Jumanji movies. They're all pretty good. But other than having the same author, neither Jumanji nor Zathura are connected to each other, story wise. One takes place in space, the other doesn't. But the Jumanji sequel had Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and even Dwanye "The John" Rockson, and it was alright. But one of the reasons I'm saying that is because I really like Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Dwanye Johnson's work, in general. Zathura, while not as good as Jumanji(in my opinion), is underrated, and probably the best thing Dax Shepard has ever been in, and the least annoying thing Kristen Stewart's ever been in(but again, those are just my opinions). But I highly recommend the original Jumanji movie, even though it takes several liberties from the book, but its still one of the best things the late, great Robin Williams starred in; and no matter how much time passes, we'll still miss him, but, I would've recommended Jumanji movies regardless; sorry, if this went on like, forever, or something. I just really liked Jumanji, Zathura, and the Jumanji sequel; Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.
