How real is ENN?

[nick2150]

Ive been watching these guys for a while now. They make me laugh alot, but there always seems to be some element of truth in alot of the stories followed by biting satire and mocking of the subject (such as lego sands of time and monkeys at IGN). So how real do you guys recon it is?

Well if you read the rest of the news stories here you will see how much truth there is in them.

It varies though, sometimes it's totally truthful with a pun and sometimes it's just taking the piss out of something, but there will be a reason it's taking the piss.

Its satire, they say what most people are thinking too

 

[Daveman]

It's complete Satire.

Yeah, so in other words there's some element of truth that is exaggerated to form comedy.

If you wanna get the information in a non-biased manner then research what they say.
Their info is generally in-jokes amongst those who know the story... Or as the poster above me put it, satire~
I love how they make square enix seem diabolical 'Powered by the fermented tears of constantly disappointed fanboys' <3

 

[De Ronneman]

It's satire. The thing that divides satire and comedy is the truth. Satire always ahs a core of truth.

So yeah, there's some real stuff, hidden, far, far away, under a thick crust of BS.

One of the reasons i stopped watching is because I cant tell what is the truth and what isn't. It is a very funny show, but i cant help it, i just end up confused as to what have i actually watched, and sometimes i even feel that in a twisted way it was making fun of ME. I cant really explain it.
