One of them basically said the same thing our own "Laffer" had to say--I didn't know how to play the games. I think some of it misses the point--one of my themes was that these aren't games that you can pick up and play. They take lots of study and patience. I agree to a point, though. I was disappointed that I couldn't show off the gameplay more, but I don't have unlimited time, and don't feel too good about just using someone else's footage. I like to have hands-on experience with a game before I talk or write about it.
They're not all negative, mind you. Check your email, Bill. :)
p.s. I overreacted; it's really only one guy who really didn't like the video. The rest are just glad to see someone like me trying his best to show off their favorite platform. I am thankful for that.
