I can't watch a game review without hearing your voice...it wasn't the same. Thanks for making a channel here on YT so we can continue to follow your reviews!
Anyone new to Easy Allies, it is the GT crew under a new name, and they have a patreon page that will give you early access to their podcast if you subscribe, and they have a twitch. Be sure to support them!
+ZeroSilence91 - Thanks! I just found this video from searching reviews of the game. Glad I did. I was wondering why I have never heard of this channel before and then there was the voice. Awesome!
It used to be the case that GameTrailers did the very best game reviews out of everybody and now, not surprisingly, Easy Allies are doing the very best reviews out of everybody. The editing, the insights, the voice over, every facet of these reviews is superior to IGN and GameSpot. Like others have said before me, it's an absolute delight to hear Brandon's voice again. I'm so glad to see the GT legacy continue into a new era under a different name.
+Scott Douglas Totally agree. After watching Gt Reviews for years other reviews feel shallow or like they just miss the point, shot gameplay that doesn't relate to what they are saying or spoil things. So glad to have them back.
It's great to have Brandon voicing reviews again and to see that you guys have kept the style of the GT Reviews. RECOMMENDATION: it would be good to have a phrase under the score like "A must for shooter fans", "great gameplay but fell short on story", "Avoid the [platform name] version" or (in the case of Far Cry Primal) "Recommended for newcomers to the franchise".
GOD YES! For years my home page was gametrailers and since it went down I have had to stare at the same unchanging image of Firewatch every time I opened chrome. Firewatch was a reminder that my favorite review website was done making reviews. So needless to say it felt amazing launching chrome today and having the Easy Allies youtube be the first image I saw. Welcome back fam!
I was a huge fan of GameTrailers and Brandon Jones was definitely a big reason for that. He always had the perfect voice for reviewing video games. He was also a fair reviewer as well. Quantum Break received its fair share of unwarranted hatred. The gameplay is a lot of fun. Using time manipulation to alter the environments to solve puzzles and during chaotic firefights is always exciting. The special effects and particle effects are impressive. The voice acting is top notch. Graphically, the game looks really good, with realistic looking character models. The game does something that not other title has ever done, and that is utilize full live action episodes in between gameplay. The game isn't perfect with some issues here and there. However, its far from being bad game like a lot of people thought it is. I'd place Quantum Break right up there with Remedy Entertainment's other titles such as, the original Max Payne, Max Payne 2 and Alan Awake in terms of quality game play, great characters and solid story. I actually want to play the game one more time because I enjoyed it so much the first time around.
So glad reviews are back. It's tough to find reviews that go more in depth but also don't end up spoiling everything and you seem to strike a perfect balance.
Hearing THE VOICE again makes me happy (even though I don't care about quantum break). After 13 years entering GT daily (and I still do sometimes) It is good to be back. Congratulations to everyone at the Easy Allies team ^^
The writing! The editing! THE VOICEOVER! IT'S BACK! I don't even care if it's a april fool joke, I felt like I just regained a piece of my life I never knew missing.
Great review, always loved you guys' work. Combat footage captured for this review is really cool, definitely interest d to pick this up at some point. Good to see Remedy can still bring it with the combat mechanics.
Welcome back, former Gametrailers! I've watched all your reviews in the past 8 years, and I'll keep watching them for the years to come. Thank you very much for the great content, and I wish you the best of success!
That's right guys, work your way away from that number system. Honestly I didn't even need the 5 star rating system at the end(People get to caught up on a number). The review itself is good enough.
+hiphophippy27 Now they will bitch about fractions of stars. Nothing has changed. Also if someone started to debate whether a score should be 8.6 or 8.7 it was an immediate sign not to take that person seriously.
Why though? Scores are totally arbitrary and dont even convey the games quality. Just look at how many shitstorms over scores their has been, or how people treat a 7 as bad. No one agrees what a score is worth so they end up being worthless. Plus at the end of the review you already know what the reviewer thinks.
Can't believe how good it was to hear Brandon's voice in a video review, after GameTrailers closed. Will definitely be here for all your future reviews, podcasts and whatnot.
I figured it would be short, but "10 hour duration" really reinforces my decision to wait for a sale. I didn't buy The Order until I found it at Walmart for $8. I enjoyed the review. You guys always do quality work. My one gripe is very minor. You may want to rethink the animation with the stars going down as each line passes at the end of the video before revealing the score. I don't know about anyone else, but I had a little gut reaction watching the stars go down, only to be confused for a second when they shot back up for the final rating.
not even finished the video, but man didit bought a smile to my face just hearing Brandon voice a review again. the best voice of the internet, bar none
I've used GT's game reviews for two console generations and they were always the opinion I trusted when it came down to how I spent my money. It's great to have you guys back! :)
1- This game reviews are all over the place! I think I'll wait for a sale on PC. To many games to play right now. 2- It's so good to hear Brandon voice again on a review. 3- Next reviews I'm excited for: Dark Souls III, Ratchet&Clank and Uncharted 4!
This is beautiful. The reviews were always my favorite thing about GT, and now it feels like Easy Allies is really alive. Can't wait for more reviews and one day, retrospectives.
I completely agree with everything in this review. So glad I'm not the only one who loved this game and understand it has some flaws. Don't understand some reviews of this game like Angry Joe. Some people just don't get it.
Sean Donovan angry Joe is full of him self now days. he likes it when games spoon feed him the story but when they don't or make him think, he gets upset. he is the definition of what's wrong with gamers now days. getting angre when they don't like things, like his abcesion with superman.
Best reviewer voice EVER :D
LOVE hearing that voice again!
So this is why people love GameTrailers reviews, this was so good!
"The battlefield becomes a beautiful ballet of death and destruction."
That line is Huber all over, so glad you guys are back to doing reviews again.
You have no idea how good it is to hear your voice man...
Brandon Jones has the best & most captivating voice in the games industry! Welcome Back!!
Hearing Jones' voice doing a review again is like the clouds opening up to hand me a gift from the heavens.
SO GOOD to hear that voice over reviews again! never leave me again fellas

I'm so glad this is back! and with the same unmatched editing, writing and VO. you guys are still on top of your game!!
Ah Brandon's review voice. I missed this. Thank you for bringing it back!
The reviews are as excellent as ever. Very happy the ethos of a GT Review made the transition.
It used to be the case that GameTrailers did the very best game reviews out of everybody and now, not surprisingly, Easy Allies are doing the very best reviews out of everybody.

+Scott Douglas Hear! Hear!
Man its good to hear that voice again.
I know right!!
+KangarooBeard Feels like home! :D
I'll give that voice review a 10/10
Great to have the reviews back!! I didn't realize how much I missed them until I watched this and it felt like coming home. Great job everyone!!
It's great to have Brandon voicing reviews again and to see that you guys have kept the style of the GT Reviews.

Funny how we grow familiar with someone we never saw in person!
Welcome back Brandon, your voice is the voice of reviews for our gen!!
I am so happy to see this again.. this Review style has been surely missed..
A Brandon Jones-voiced review! All is well with the world once again :D nicely done guys
This was, is and will be the best voice for videogame reviews :)!!!
Great review :)!
The first review in the Garage, man... Glad to know the garage left us the way we were introduced to it. Hyped up with Huber enjoying a game!
We thought we'd never get to hear these reviews again with Brandon's voice. :D Bravo Huber, Jones and the rest of the team!
Listening to that voice....
Brings back memories....
Feels like so long...
Long Live Easy Allies!!!
Great Review: You guys are doing still the best video reviews in this Industry. Glad they are back^^
It's like GT never left us! Of course we will probably only get a quarter of the reviews they did on GT because of the smaller crew, but I'll take it!
+Dee N I'm pretty sure it's the whole crew. The only difference is their budget and work space
Love the new branding, good clean graphic design. Obviously your reviews have always been great too.
Glad to see that production values for reviews haven't changed since GameTrailers. Looking forward for more from you guys.
"Combat is a beautiful ballet of death and destruction". Ohh I missed Hubber's reviews...
I just had chills!!! THE VOICE RETURNS!!
Amazing review, love the editing...gosh! GT reviews were the best! Glad to see that the quality remains.
GOD YES! For years my home page was gametrailers and since it went down I have had to stare at the same unchanging image of Firewatch every time I opened chrome. Firewatch was a reminder that my favorite review website was done making reviews. So needless to say it felt amazing launching chrome today and having the Easy Allies youtube be the first image I saw. Welcome back fam!
So glad you guys are back! Miss real reviews

Good to have you guys back reviewing. Please consider uploading 1080p 60FPS for future videos if possible.
Watching the intro video and just waiting to hear Brandon's voice. God it's good to have reviews from you guys again!
The only reviews I trust now. Glad you guys are back reviewing, I've missed Brandon's expert voiceover work.
Great to have you back! Wouldn't be the same without those silky tones whenever an embargo lifts.
So glad reviews are back. It's tough to find reviews that go more in depth but also don't end up spoiling everything and you seem to strike a perfect balance.
ahh that VO
I've missed gametrailers reviews. Which this pretty much is! :D
GREAT START!
I just found your guys again! Thank god! I can't say how amazing it feels to hear Brandon's voice again!
Hearing THE VOICE again makes me happy (even though I don't care about quantum break).
After 13 years entering GT daily (and I still do sometimes) It is good to be back.
Congratulations to everyone at the Easy Allies team ^^
God i LOVE your reviews guys! Brandon's voice, the editing, the sync, the script, its all on point! Keep it up! :D
Great review. Well done Huber and Brandon for great script and editing. It feels got to see you back.
The spirit of Gametrailers Lives on!
feels so good hearing your review voice again Brandon! glad the group has worked together
The writing! The editing! THE VOICEOVER!
IT'S BACK!
I don't even care if it's a april fool joke, I felt like I just regained a piece of my life I never knew missing.
Will ★★★½ be the new 7.8?
+TheVictorVieira I think it's a 9.0 (divide 10 by 5, each star worth 2, so 4 and a half stars is equals 9).
+Roberto Boia He said 3.5 stars is gonna be like 7.8.
I'm Happy and Glade to hear that Voice again this is so Awesome
Nice review Huber. Great to hear that review voice again Jones, I have a grin from ear to ear.
Great review, always loved you guys' work. Combat footage captured for this review is really cool, definitely interest d to pick this up at some point. Good to see Remedy can still bring it with the combat mechanics.
Nice to see your reviews again. I always cared about your ratings more than others. Keep it up
I've missed that beautiful Jones voice.
Great review, great voice as always too ! Good to see/hear you again guys !
Glad you guys are back. I need some Huber Hype!
Welcome back, former Gametrailers! I've watched all your reviews in the past 8 years, and I'll keep watching them for the years to come. Thank you very much for the great content, and I wish you the best of success!
I'm so happy you guys are back!!!!! i swear i fell out of gaming without you guys
So cool that you're doing reviews again! Like an old C&C commando used to say: "keep 'em coming!" :-)
I watched this review for one sole reason. To hear Brandon's voice in games review again. Subscribed! No need for me to think twice.
Feels so good to hear the voice doing the best reviews on the web.
That's right guys, work your way away from that number system. Honestly I didn't even need the 5 star rating system at the end(People get to caught up on a number). The review itself is good enough.
Right off the bat just wanna say kudos to whoever made your new intro/splash it looks top notch.
+iamcorrupt that would be Ian Hinck
Good to hear Brandon's voice again! Long live the EZA video review
THE voice of video game reviews is back!
Man, I missed you guys. Always the best reviews, anywhere. Period.
Would love a 100 score system back though.
+Rephrase-then-Erase Agree
+Rephrase-then-Erase this works fine, no one makes buying decisions based on a number anyway.
+Rephrase-then-Erase So people could bitch about decimal points that don't mean anything? No thanks
+hiphophippy27 Now they will bitch about fractions of stars. Nothing has changed.
Also if someone started to debate whether a score should be 8.6 or 8.7 it was an immediate sign not to take that person seriously.
Why though? Scores are totally arbitrary and dont even convey the games quality.

Can't believe how good it was to hear Brandon's voice in a video review, after GameTrailers closed. Will definitely be here for all your future reviews, podcasts and whatnot.
Hey...you're the reviewer guy from Gametrailers! I'm so glad that you're back to doing reviews!
Welcome back! Great to see more reviews from you!
I figured it would be short, but "10 hour duration" really reinforces my decision to wait for a sale. I didn't buy The Order until I found it at Walmart for $8.
I enjoyed the review. You guys always do quality work. My one gripe is very minor. You may want to rethink the animation with the stars going down as each line passes at the end of the video before revealing the score. I don't know about anyone else, but I had a little gut reaction watching the stars go down, only to be confused for a second when they shot back up for the final rating.
not even finished the video, but man didit bought a smile to my face just hearing Brandon voice a review again. the best voice of the internet, bar none
Really great review; you guys are one of the only groups I really respect when it comes to reviews.
I first heard that voice in 2009 in the AC 2 review. It feels like that time again today :D
I've used GT's game reviews for two console generations and they were always the opinion I trusted when it came down to how I spent my money. It's great to have you guys back! :)
So glad to hear this voice again in a review!
Great review as always - it's like you guys never left. Thanks Huber & Jones, and whoever built the new titles!
Ohh how I missed this voice on reviews!! I'm glad that you guys are back!!
Love that you're back in business. Dat Jones VO.
You're back! Finally.
Video reviews were all we ever wanted from you.
Yo, whoever came up with the motion graphic for the score reveal, props to you. That shit was cool.
Thank God your reviews are back. Hope the stay around for as long as possible
wooohooo first review! it is so good you guys are back.
best reviews in the business!
Video reviews could learn a thing or two from you guys! Editing masters!
1- This game reviews are all over the place! I think I'll wait for a sale on PC. To many games to play right now.
2- It's so good to hear Brandon voice again on a review.
3- Next reviews I'm excited for: Dark Souls III, Ratchet&Clank and Uncharted 4!
Will 3 and a half stars be the new 7.8? I'm so glad the reviews are back I've missed Brandons sexy voice!
That voice man. That voice.
It's like Game Trailers never closed! Great job
Every game is good when Brandon reviewing it.
Your first review!!!! I don't even own a XBox One, but i need to hear this!!!
I like the star systems! Hooray for reviews!
What's the background outro towards the end of the review? On repeat!
God's voice. Feels like home again
This is beautiful. The reviews were always my favorite thing about GT, and now it feels like Easy Allies is really alive. Can't wait for more reviews and one day, retrospectives.
So satisfying hearing Brandon's VO on a review again!! Great review and awesome job on forming Easy Allies everyone :)
I completely agree with everything in this review. So glad I'm not the only one who loved this game and understand it has some flaws. Don't understand some reviews of this game like Angry Joe. Some people just don't get it.

i missed your voice so much Jones. it was like part of my life was missing without hearing a GT crew-person narrating.
My favorite review source is back. Wishing you all the best guys!
It's like you never stopped! Good to hear the GT crew again! Look forward to hearing the rest of your reviews.
