Dzsono: I didn't know that so many people actively dislike TB. After reading through hundreds of comments on many forums, "TB is a douche/annoying, but that's a scummy thing the developer did" seemed to crop up again and again. I almost feel like an outcast because I think he's pretty good!
I think he's pretty good, he reviews tonnes of indie or mainstream games I couldn't give a toss about, so I think the last video review of his I watched was for Shadowrun Returns, but he seems to have a good mindset and I pretty much agree with everything he says. I think this video of his:

I think people call him a douche simply because most gamers don't like hearing negative opinions, as in they're all fanboys and when they read/listen to a review of a game they expect to have their own positive pre-formed opinion to be reinforced. They don't want to play Cawadoodles: Modern Medal IVXII or Bioshock Infinite and decide it's the citizen kane of gaming (or have IGN/Gamespot tell them it is) and the have their world-view challenged by someone "of authority" who says it's actually pretty crap. Gamers (at least the mainstream flavor) are in general completely oversensitive and unable of either critical thinking themselves or even accepting criticism of a game they like.
Can't blame em mostly, pretty much every mainstream video game review site caters to gamers in this way, rarely offers really negative and/or critical reviews.
