[omarsback1]

[windir6661]

I lost 1.40 seconds of my life

[JunttiGaming]

WTF IGN!! Why the hell is the "Demon Kids Want Pizza" in the page?!

[jameskennedy80]

I haven't watched this video yet, so I don't know if this one will be addressed, but people pronouncing Forza "fort-za" like pizza slightly irks me. Surely you only make the t sound if it's double z, like pizza.

[assassinsgreed66]

Daemon:Whats up everybody,IGN's Daemon Hatfield joined by my friend *Puts hand on thigh* Greg Miller...

Greg:*Puts hand over hand* hi Daemon.

Daemon:Video games are filled *Removes hand* with characters...

Greg:*Sad face*

LOL WTF!!!

[thedaywalka1]

@assassinsgreed66 Ninja Gayden XD

[Moesdays]

IGN IS BULL man. Because they get to meet all the other people and i don't how, do they keep traveling or something?

[JGigs93]

Why are IGN subscribers always so pissy?

[T1ERGAMERS]

YO!!! All you retards pronouncing AUG as "OHG", you sound retarded as fuck, it is actually pronounced "Aey YOU Gee" what you have to pronuce are the letters!

[lolatpendulum]

Americans trying to tell us how to pronounce...? Oh, the hilarity!

Mul-tye-player?

No, it's mul-tee-player.

[igrenade]

always knew greg's a fag

[neilsugg]

camp of duty modern fagfair 3

[DJDiaz369]

The hell is wrong with greg? if he is being a smartass or trying to be funny its making him look like a dumbass, not hating on the video i can understand some people cant shit right but who cares about pronouncing a word from a game, but i can be wrong about people wanting to be those that have to know how to say or do things right :/

[mambo81811]

@DJDiaz369 Well it's a name so yeah lol.And we have to respect names you know.I mean I'm sure you want your name to be pronounce the way you pronounce it :-)

[jszekerj]

I think American English should be called Ameriglish and just keep English, English.

[101thematrix101]

Final Fantasy X tidus friends would always mispronounce his name.Its (teedus) not tydus

[D3ADLYTHRUST52]

Deus ex

[THEBULLANGUEROCK]

oh that music .... nostalgia :D

[try2bcool]

You guys need to put Chrono Trigger on there...I hear that one mispronounced all the time.

[turmoil23]

use a tripod, never ever use that guy to film you

[IGNentertainment]

@turmoil23 We do use a tripod. Unfortunately, they chose to film in our waterbed conference room. Having a waterbed as a floor seemed like such a good idea at the time...

[turmoil23]

@IGNentertainment good one, lol

[DeathIsMySalvation]

@IGNentertainment I'm assuming Greg wrote this cause he's a smartass.

[anniekrul]

@IGNentertainment i want to work at IGN :O

[MCMaffyx]

My Friends always spoke Castlevania wrong!

[ClandestineEmpire]

Daemon > Greg

[rpatto92]

You American/Canadian/you guys on the continent need to learn how to pronounce English words correctly, before tackling other languages, don't beat around the bush with the so called English.US bullshit, either speak properly and I mean prognostication not the posh ascent that many of you seam to think is English OR

quit the bull crap and make an official name for your languages American an Canadian; as it's now diverse enough for you to truly call it your own.

[grinder250]

does it really mater how you pronounce it dosent anyone really give a shit?

[MegaRandomcrap123]

Well going by the Japanese way it's Guy-den. So yeah thats right.

[MediaMeandyou]

this is IGNorant americans thinking they pronnounce everything the correct way

[SilentMagician7]

@MediaMeandyou You should probably learn how to spell the word 'pronounce' correctly before calling anyone ignorant.

[JaymezOnGames]

@SilentMagician7 i know how to spell "pronounce" i have jittery fingers. honest.

[IGNentertainment]

@MediaMeandyou We don't understand your criticism. We're not basing this on how we THINK they should be pronounced. We're basing this on how the original creators who named the games INTENDED them to be pronounced. This has nothing to do with us being Americans.

[maxbarrass1]

@IGNentertainment Don't pay attention to people, especially when they use the term IGNorant. They are just people who are annoyed that they did not come up with the idea in the first place. Now if you don't mind, I will be leaving to try and grow a dwarfs beard by Friday.

[chickzepol]

@IGNentertainment Why the FU#K are you feeding the troll?

[JaymezOnGames]

@IGNentertainment what about with Mario? you say Mar-ee-O, which you presume is correct, but everyone in britain, including on the actual TV ads, say Maaa Rio

[Thatonethatyouknew]

@JaymezOnGames Well, according to their guide. "The correct pronunciation of Mario is MAH-ree-oh, as in, "Itsa me, MAH ree oh!"

[Kserijaro]

@IGNentertainment yes, yes it does. If you weren't IGN wouldnt be renamed into IGNorance. Start playing games you review and make proper reviews. I track you for lol ammount of fail i see.

[starcraftBR]

@MediaMeandyou Dumb

[MediaMeandyou]

0:06 stupid f**king goofy fat ass face

[IceX92]

This video is full of proof of Greg Homosexuality. Even Matt say he want to make him straight....

[FourSquareEyes]

You should really watch out for loo mines.

[mosindesire]

I love chipotle.

[Ryder23068]

@mosindesire

it makes me poo blood.

[andrewsnyd]

i got the answer i watch avgn to get the answer

[d5fes]

seriously, can someone explain to me why so many people hate greg? i think he's pretty cool

[bigbadwolfeinc]

The only song with the right pronunciation is the very first one.

[bigbadwolfeinc]

pokemon there isn't pronounced correctly. its not po kay mon. In japan they pronounce all the letters. So its po ke mon. e like an eh. The songs are wrong.

[gamingdonnie]

greg miller take that holy shirt off that fat flabby pile of shit excuse for a body you satanic worshiping mother! Go fuck your ps3

[Exist64]

and the worst is, if you dont live in america or england, you can also mispronounce english words. and by the way: i dont hate greg.

[Edd10101]

It's pronounced 'Schne - blay'

[xXGaMeSOpSXx]

[mopheadzac]

[xXGaMeSOpSXx]

@RaymondSundramurti np lol

[Cocoabine]

I made that mistake the other day when I pronounced Modern Warfare 3 as "an overrated piece of shit".

[TLRedemption]

@Cocoabine What do you mean? that's dead on.

[jeop1993]

@Cocoabine how awkward i almost did the same but then i took an arrow to the knee

[maixmm778]

@Cocoabine you didn't make a mistake :)

[6XGuitarXheroX6]

I don't care, i'm never gonna stop saying Mah-rio

[iPerfection68]

i love how the two top comments are complete opposites.

[unlockerist]

gay part 0:10

[arkangelio]

Gaiden - Wiki this word. It mean ''Side Story''. (Guy-den)

[PerroPanchi]

Pause at 1:11 best photobomb ever!

[SerdarCirak]

its not pronounced guy-den or gey-den

its gay-den

[okamichamploo]

@SerdarCirak so how are you pronouncing "gay"?

Japanese pronounce a i e o u similar to spanish so

If it`s an initial ah (as in audio) followed immediately by a y (sounded as in cry), then you`re right.

But if you mean to say it the same as the English word gay, then I`m sorry but that is not the Japanese pronunciation. see the Kanji -> 外伝 which can be written with four hiragana as がいでん　(ga-i-de-n)

[EaglesStir]

What's exactly wrong with Greg?

[Zadamanim]

Is it pokeemon or pokehmon?

[EdgelessTitan]

@Zadamanim Pokehmon.

The "keh" is really fast. So it's really "Poe-keh-mon"

[halo6534]

@490DarkPrince Pff ya i highly doubt your skinny......

[490DarkPrince]

@halo6534 i'm about 70 lbs so i think you're smart enough to know how much that is...

[halo6534]

@490DarkPrince So you are a 10 year old kid.....who the fuck could've guess that one.

[hardmaiden123]

@490DarkPrince get a life bitch

[maccajoe]

@490DarkPrince darkprince go and be a hater somewhere else

[23Jarek23]

fucking hate this fat goofy lookin motherfucker, ign, stop putting him in front of a camera...

[andytram08]

Haha so gay Jk

[2010KTV]

Ooh!!! Did anybody else see the Machinima IG Daily show with Greg Miller at the beginning of it?! I personally love Greg, but I have to admit that was funny!

[2010KTV]

It's "Pokemon" not "Pokeman" that's my only pet peeve, and is only from mothers trying to buy their kids a game, so I don't think they'll read your pronunciation guide :(

[whiteganser]

Also, the "fat nerdy guy" you're insulting? He has a fucking DREAM job for most of us. Don't even dare tell me "I'd rather die than work for those cod dick sucking fags!!" because I know it's not true. He LITERALLY plays games for a living... for a fucking living. He's more successful than most of you.

[ckyfan8291]

@whiteganser Good to know you know how to write a paragraph, dumbass. Oh and Greg Miller's a fag.

[whiteganser]

Glad to know the internet is absolute pricks even to fellow gamers. You guys are aware that most people here are fanboys.... who says all of you people are handsome, have girlfriends, and aren't fanboys? Fuck off, leave Greg alone. And no, I'm not on "IGN'S DICK!!!", I just care about other people's feelings. Call me a pussy if you want, but it's called being nice. I know all of you little Xbox kiddies have trouble at being nice, but fucking try.

[computerduderec]

It's great to see that everyone is concerned about Greg's weight issues. Greg, we wish you good luck on your journey on the road to recovery.

[lakalester]

MIND.BLOWING

[MrJack452]

I looked at the guide....Dude its for the most stupid people. More then half of it is common sense and standard letter usage. Seriously people learn to read.

[xxHappyMeal84xx]

Chipotle!!!!!!!?????c'mon

[rennyboy6]

Some people pronounce it still "Ninja Gay Den" Lmao, idk

[McGrahamable]

greg ftw

[bodies72]

Greg Miller sucks. Am I cool yet?

[Exist64]

@bodies72 yeh, we all admire you for saying something bad about someone : ) at least one rational thinking person here.

[wheaty123]

I bet Greg pulls all the ladies.

[vincentnguyen777]

Greg didn't even do anything weird in this video, he's seems like a nice guy. people are just so hateful these days. daemon needs to cut off his rat-tail though

[iamextremelyawesome]

weezer's last good album was pinkerton.

[caelinnis]

Why so much hate on Greg?

[MATTS970]

Why does everybody hat Greg, I think he's cool.

[DJRobDG]

Greg is mad funny. Why ppl hating?

[GameMarked]

The commercial says three five eight days over two...

[Alexzeeanderthaw]

@KidRobe probably that complete opposite of him. So, normal

[KidRobe]

I wonder what the people that hate Greg look like?

[PatrixMan]

The first moment was so gay

[FaBIanBarajasLp]

Weezer!!!!!

[konflictification]

Pointless vid. Hate the fag on the bak

[EricJaceYT]

I think this video and the idea behind it is nice. Funnily enough, people mispronouncing titles or characters for video games is pretty common place so its nice there's a place they can go to learn about these things, if needs be.

And yes - *ahem* - I did comment earlier. Right now I thought about giving the actual video a real comment, rather than what I did earlier. But I still stick by that comment, as I may not be a troll, but honesty is the best damn policy so suck it up, losers.

[cantorock]

Please add 'soccer' (as in FIFA Soccer) to the list... It's pronounced 'football' ;-)

[flame on!]

[h3IIfir3pho3nix]

I think there is a bunch of reasons Greg would be laughed out of a Gamestop...

[ZimM804]

Who cares how the Japanese pronounces it were American, we do whatever the fuck we wanna!

[Craneses]

BEYOND!

[dioseolo]

Add Tidus to the list. Most people say "Tie-dus", when it's reallly "Tee-dus".

[LoVeLiVedaNce65]

Wow a lot of haterz :\ that not okay..nope tht bad

[CarnaTiges713]

Finally, I can prove how fucking Deus Ex is pronounced

[stupidguy426]

Greg fuckin pisses me off that four eyes peice of shit foggot. Go get laid instead of worrying about getting laughed at at gamestop...

[caelinnis]

@stupidguy426 Why don't you go get laid instead of sitting behind a computer and writing retarded comments?

[chrisrock1990]

I liked the top 2 comments because i thought they were a bit funny, but for fuck sakes u haters need to get a life, if you don't like him stop watching his videos. Its as simple as that. What kind of asshole sits behind a computer screen and hates on people like that. EVER have hundreds of people hate you for no good reason? Its not fun. Stop being such dicks and stop hating on miller.

[aidenmccloskey]

greg deserves to be punched by a gorilla

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

WHY ARE THEY IN THE GHETTO!?!? I HOPE THESE IGNorant 360 FAGGOTS GET SHOT & DIE!

[brianster1234]

Firing Greg would increase the likes per ign video by about 54%!!!!

[miguelangelv7]

homos

[JOSHxMATT]

1:09 Are you a wizard?

[purpledrinkFTW]

Greg Miller is sleek and sexy

[wwwinu0]

Greg is fucking correct T_T

[TheRealJawnz]

Greg Miller can fuck my bitch.

[segakid101]

Greg should probably lose some weight

[xyoshi]

You guys may hate on greg, but to be honest, hes one of the more fair reviewers for ps3 games.

[thecoletrain94]

0:09 gays

[Rcee01]

rocco botte> greg miller ALLDAY

[jksanrio]

Greg haters trying to be funny......

[tomtomdude1]

[Patrickdls]

[TheAusman101]

[xInfamous187x]

Greg Miller is cooler then any of the virgins that jack off to an average girl hosting

[ChrisPie1525]

IGN, try using an tripod for these originals.

[BUDA20]

AVGN FTW!!!!!

[AllenFG86]

GGGGGAAAAAYYYYYY AAATTT 1111100000

[MasterTainment]

Wow...What douchebags...

The commenters I mean...

[oskchava91]

what an ignorant asshole

[musicalbacon2]

You guys need to write the words on the page in IPA, or the international phonetic alphabet. It will help us linguists or singers.

[TheVirginGamer]

gawddddddddd i might as well troll too... GREG .. YOUR ... um.... FAT !. yeah.

[theeliteZARD]

i though id software was eye-dee

[HeroCrest69]

Thank you. I hate it when people mispronounce chipotle.

[Enraged423]

i hope greg reads the top comments

[VinhDTx]

I don't understand whats happening LOL

[Arkatox]

The list is missing Yoshi. All of the pronunciations have been obvious for me, but the real reason I went to the page was to look up Yoshi. I, personally, trust the Smash Bros. announcer over the first Mario Party announcer, but I've heard it frequently pronounced both ways ("yoe-shee" and "yah-shee").

[K1LLAY]

Eye-co not E-co for ICO

[ALOBERTI]

i reed the article and felt a little douchee

[deliciousfishtacos]

Nobody cares if you hate Greg for some reason.

[nickmax123]

greg miller is a fat fanboy faggot.

[NightFireEquinox]

@nickmax123 just like you

[KujoJotar0]

Greg is obviously the loveable and fun gay guy of the office that the girls love talking to and the guys like to avoid lol

[1jentoni1]

Fat ugly greg tryin to be funny...

[n5r15]

@1jentoni1 hey now, don't go projecting your self hatred onto my youtubes, bro.

[1jentoni1]

@n5r15 talk to ur self much?

[Arikado09]

[cookieraider126]

0:09 gay, he liked it...

[gillharjot1996]

GAY den

[JegBot]

How do you say "Tidus"? I say Tie-Dus.

[Cheesegrinds2]

00:10 is weird

[hayaom20]

Si ustedes tienen problemas con la pronunciación imaginense yo que hablo en español O_o .seguro nadie entendio lo que escribi XD.

[Kingjay144]

for anime lovers, some pronounce Elfen Lied as Elfen lie'd instead of Leed

[Imtherealsaturnsonic]

actually if you think about it all words are made up...

[PRocker320]

Maybe Naomi can learn to pronounce Mario correctly.

[FalknerX]

IGN "IG-NOR-RANT"

[animerox21]

[thegreatODEN1]

[TheSOA20]

kinda pointless maybe?

[bigbossluna]

that hand grabbing is so gay

[alphatatsumaki]

208 Americans hate having their pronounciation corrected.

[Shaboostein]

Lol i still call zealots in sc2 "zeelots" XD not to mention terran as "teraan"

[TheHephaestus16]
