Here's something to make you feel ashamed to be a gamer!

[Solid Snake]

This is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever witnessed.

...Man, I'm going to need to wash a shitload of bile out of my mouth. I may never play a game again lest I be associated with this douchebaggery.

Someone needs to explain to me:
1: Who the heck thought that these individuals were reasonably representative samples of the gaming community;
2: Who thought it'd be a great idea to lead off with the overweight guy going on some lengthy speech about how fuckin' smokin' hawt the ladies participating in the contest were, as if that's the collective value of their contributions;
(Also why is it always the ugliest / most overweight guy on these reality shows who turns out to be the most depraved and creepy? Is that like an editing trick, like it wouldn't be sufficiently funny if the military hunk was crushin' on them, but edit the stereotypically socially awkward guy into sounding like a perv and its comedy gold?)
3: Who thought it'd be a great idea to have a random model with no experience in the industry join two (male, of course) individuals with actual 'experience' as judges;
4: What the hell cockroaches have to do with anything;
5: Who put Egoraptor up to this bullshit.

Watching this video has made me feel ashamed to associate with all of them, to own a PS3, to have been a Sony customer since the PS1 days and uuuuugggghhhh God someone please shut off my brain.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a 'gaming reality show' that actually intelligently approached its subject, treated its participants like real people and didn't indulge in hokey, sexist, racist, inconsequentially dumb bullshit, or deliberately cast people who simply shouldn't be there, and actually incorporate judges who should be judging them based on their actual performances? Then when someone was like "Snake, you're a gamer!" I'd be like "Yeah, check this out, we're good people!"

EDIT: "Hey loud obnoxious girl, you're Hispanic, aren't you?"
"Why yes, yes I am!"
"So that explains why you're so loud and obnoxious!"
UUUUGGGGHHHHH

If you honestly weren't angry at being associated with 'gamer culture' before this, you've been in a coma

They're just finger puppets, Snake. It's not real. Everything will be ok.

I find it hilarious because game tester is basically the worst job in the entire industry, the one that will quite possibly make you hate video games forever.

Well, at least if he wins he'll get a car to hopefully drive as far away from the actual testing job as possible.

Ahahaha she's in an interview and she gives a five minute dissertation on silent farts.
Where the hell do they find these people

Like let me be blunt, I'm at least twice as socially awkward as that girl is, and I have never acted that unprofessional in an interview
I'd like to imagine she's just an actress they hired and she was explicitly told by the producers to tell that story to the judges, because at least then I'd have the slightest bit of respect for her and everyone else involved.

actually, yes, it is an editing trick. He probably wasn't the only one making those comments, just the only one shown

But why would any of the guys make that comment in the first place
Like keep your pervy thoughts to yourself and behave like an appropriately mature human being, like everyone does in the real world every day

because if you were the kind of person to keep inappropriate comments to yourself then you wouldn't be on a reality show in the first place. They actively look for people like that

You see it now?

I feel like everything egoraptor is saying should be sarcastic but it's edited out of context.
