He is pretty good at talking about a game, really getting to brass tacks.
But and it's a huge, full bodied, but ...
He LOVES to get on his little soapbox and bang on and on and on about a subject, just loving the sound of his own voice.
His also king of the PC elitists, just ragging on games for things like FOV sliders, not having the correct resolution or FPS ... you know the topics PC elitists just LOVE to go on about and get REALLY anal and nit picky about and when it doesn't meat their standards, the good ol' favourite "it's unplayable!".
Oh, does the PC elitist love that phrase, the game works ok (perfect? No but it can be played) but not to the PC elitist! Are the controls a little wonky from a bad port? If so, the game is unplayable! Unless it's a game like the witcher which has fucked up controls by design but that's ok 'cos that is just using the superior gaming input to it's fullest!
So he is an ok guy, until he starts to soap box, bang on about how good the PC platform is or a pet peeve sets him off.
