Right now, Extra Credits is giving history lessons on Rome, I guess to distract people from the usual slew of bugs that come with a Creative Assembly title. Fuck those amateurs. If you want the complete (free) history of Rome, I strongly recommend The History of Rome podcast.
I really think Extra Credits owes the world an apology for having a Wagner James Au-esque hype-hype-HYPE take on Firefall, which is a fucking mess that was until recently in the death throes of pay-for-beta-to-finance-development
And finally, there's the fact that these fucking losers haven't actually created a goddamn game. Ever. As far as I know the two things he's been cited for are Call of Duty and Farmville. I can't find what exactly he did on Call of Duty, but I can only assume since it was the OLD Call of Duty that he was fetching coffee or donuts for more important people. For Farmville he apparently put in some of the narrative elements. Because we all know Farmville had really good writing. And Daniel Floyd has done FUCK ALL.
The whole thing reminds me of that Jane McGonigal-esque "Games are Art" crowd, only all these twats do is impress stupid people by dribbling morsels of high brow culture in front of their fat faces.
