Is Gottgame.com a joke?
amalgamut00 | 11:47 PM on 03.11.2008 18 comments


Has anybody been to this before? I found it the other day and it makes me laugh so hard. Every game this person on the radio talks about is good. Does he even know anything about video games? The worst thing I heard was "try it before you buy it." Oh my that is a good mini review.

This idiot has to mention their sponsorship all the time too. Are you tired and need more energy? Eat a Snickers Charged and play Dynasty Warriors 6, where you can ride a horse.

Oh and then this site takes the cake, they have the Irate Gamer. Instead of the rip off Irate Gamer we know he has a show on there called the Irate Gamer NEO. Isn't that cute he reviews Wii games.

Yeah so this might have been best for a message board, but I am too lazy to open an account yet. Maybe later this week I'll start posting at the boards, getting sick of the message board I'm at right now (doubt anybody cares).



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I know my site isn't anything great, but these guys on here are a bunch of jokes. They had problems with images they showed for the Snickers Charged. One of them was from a popular candy blog that doesn't allow image hosting and the second one they tried to pass it off as their image. How do I know this? I sort of reported them so now they don't have a Snickers Charged picture.

Best part I think (don't quote me) this site has been around for awhile. I didn't look at it for too long. I did however watch one of the Irate Gamer's reviews on a Wii game and it was terrible. He is still just as bad, I wish he would admit that he copied off of the AVGN already.

DUDE! I've been saying for years how HORRIBLE GottGames is! I listen to this jackass talk on the radio and he doesn't know fucking shit he's talking about at all.

Wow that was just...horrible. I was only on the site for about 5 minutes and I had to get out of there.

Are you serious? I feel so bad for you, do you need a hug? If I had to hear that on the radio I would kill myself.

lol "in the lost game, its fun interacting with all the characters, next game..."
Thats the entire review, after he had said he had never seen lost. He then went on to review MLB 2k8 by saying "The pitching's so much better"

Just stumbled across this blog... I work for GottGame so I think it's appropriated to chime in here.

I think what you're missing is the fact that the radio feature only has 2 minutes to talk about 3 games so we can't really do in depth reviews. I know for a fact that Steve (the host) plays each game he talks about for at least 3 hours. So the answer is "yes", he does play them.

As far as sponsorship goes, try going to a website like GameSpot and see how many ads you'll run into. I don't think the radio feature overdoes it at all as it's only 10 seconds out of 120 seconds.

Which picture are you referring to that we "tried to pass off" as our own? I can't recall ever trying to take credit for what someone else has done.

If you don't like The Irate Gamer, there is nothing I can really say because that's your opinion and you're entitled to it. I'm not going to try and change your mind. I do know that he does have a lot of fans though, including me.

For the most part, GottGame.com is aimed at casual gamers and thus has a simpler design. We are not a huge operation like IGN. There are other websites out there, like ScrewAttack.com, that also have a simple yet effective design and are also entertaining.

If you have any other concerns, I'll try to address them to the best of my abilities.
