What the fuck? Few days ago, I stumble across a thread about Warren bitching around. I think - that guy made few good games, I'll check it out. Well guess what, the interview is in VIDEO format. Cool, that's just one fucking thousand bigger than plain text which is BETTER because I have it formatted and corrected.
Today I see there's trailer for Winter Assalut - think I'll check it out. Well no dice 'cause it's STREAMED and I don't have plugin - looks like my Quicktime wasn't detected, congrats IGN you cunts - and not only that, but I will also wait God-knows-how-long for it to open(No progress bar) OR it will play on-the-fly and it would be unwatchable because it'll be a slideshow.
This is fucking stupid. Why anyone would want to get a VIDEO interview? To beat off to Romero's voice? Or to check out his T-Shirt? And why couldn't IGN release trailer in normal, downloadable format? Bandwidth is not an issue, you download it either way. I just think they MAKE you use that shitty portal, as if their logo in the vid wasn't enough of propaganda.
What a shit.
What the fuck?

I like streamed stuff because you can see it instantly and its easier because there is always some membership or registration required for downloads at places.
video interviews are some of the most boring things ever made. I dont even read all of the interview when its in text, I just look for the questions that interest me.
