Sifl and Olly Review Cloud’s Edge: The Ancient Texts IV
David Oxford
Remember Sifl and Olly? They had a show on MTV which ran from 1997 to 1999 called (appropriately enough) The Sifl & Olly Show. Now, thanks to the power of YouTube and Machinima, they’re back with Sifl and Olly Video Game Reviews, and the latest episode (as of this writing) is embedded above.
However, rather than reviewing real games (as so many reviewers are wont to do), they instead review made-up video games. You can still see where the real-life influences come from, however, such as the above parody of The Elder Scrolls series. My favorite part is how Olly builds games up using all the terms and such which seem to appeal to so many of today’s gaming audience, though the on-screen visuals are entertaining as well. Dragon with a cheeseburger? Sold!
