i think it's kinda cute how you have to resort to calling me an asshole, even though i'm the one without the ridiculous bias towards only one company. Assholes are usually people who tend to not accept other people's opinions. Interesting, huh?

Listen asshole, a small amount of third party games are good, even great. The majority of them are real boxes of pig ****. Scan the isles at your local wal-mart folks, bask in the glory of the endless PS2 3rd party filler games. Yes, systems need third party support to survive. But they shouldn't, third parties should be a small part of it. But nope, the average gamer goes out and plops down 50 bucks for Finding Nemo or something. Sony changed everything with their sandbox type gameplay in GTA III, but then they did the same thing in GTA: Vice City, then again in San Andreas. I am not biased, I own a PS2 and own GTA III and Vice city. (Rented SA just to prove a point). They are all the same games with slight differences. If this were the NFL, sony would be Mike Vick. The most overated POS, but idiots just ignore it. Because, well, they are idiots.

Sony games can be split into three catagories: (1) GTA and GTA ripoffs (2) Racing games (Dirt-bike, car, ATV, etc) that are all the same damn boring thing, but they sell like crazy. Thanks average gamer. (3) Stupid fighter/ ninja/ mindless platform shooter game. And of course, the bulk which may contain any of the above games (4) ****ty 3rd party games that idiots love!

Now don't you feel smart? People should have to pay to listen to me.

It's like I stepped into a bar and got smacked first thing. The arguments are good, but let up on the language. Alright, continue with the debate.

if anyone actually listened to you, the gaming world would collapse. If you're such a "real" gamer, than you would know that the gaming industry could not exist without these games you claim are filler. Those children's games support just as much of the industry's sales as the games that are actually good. It's because parents buy these games for their children. They're easy and kids like them.

If everyone was like you, then we would have about two new games to choose from a month, and those games most certainly wouldn't appeal to parents, and the companies would lose so much money that they would stop making video games altogether. And that would make you even more unhappy, correct?

Your dreams are flawed, and if you knew anything at all about the gaming industry, you wouldn't make yourself look like scum.

If I had been listened to we would be a in golden age of video gaming. When did I say I didn't know the gaming industry ran off filler? That's what I'm angry about, it shouldn't have to. Childrens games? Who said anything about them? I am talking about all filler games that are just about as difficult as the said children's games, with the addition of buckets of blood (idiots love that). If everyone were like me, we would have two games a month. PERFECT. Two GOOD games a month would be pure babylon. No more awful third party filler whilst waiting 7 months for a good game. I know damn well the industry can't stop now, there is too big of a hole. The same reason why Cigarettes aren't made illegal. They are so established that it would be devestating to get rid of them. Hey, that's a pretty apt analogy. Cigarettes kill people; Idiot fodder (3rd party games) kill the quality in the gaming industry.

My dreams are flawed? Yes, these days there is no hope because of the hole that is already dug. But if it wasn't for simpletons (read: you) there wouldn't be a hole at all. Then again, without simpletons there would be no one to bag my groceries... Hmm.

so if i am a simpleton, then that would mean a simpleton is somone who cares about the quality of a game, but knows a lot more about the reality of things?

thanks for pointing out that the people you are dissing are actually better than you.

Umm, I care deeply for the quality of gaming. Which is the point I have been making all through our amazingly one sided arguement. You idiots buy your idiot games, simple as scratching one's ass. And drool at the graphics. Then you beat them in a couple sittings. Or, my personal favorite. You beat them in a month, not because of difficulty. But because the bloody game drags on and on and on with the same stupid play. (GTA)

Here, maybe a simple equation would ease the strain on your little mind:

Simpletons + Crappy games that may or may not be 3rd party = More crappy games being made = downfall of quality in the gaming industry

Simpletons and Crappy games are variables, feel free to put "Me" and "GTA" in there respectively.

i like how you think that i actually own GTA, and i also like how you keep placing me in a group of people that i just happen to be defending. I don't own any GTA games, in fact, I don't even think they're that fun. If I did happen to get it, I would only get it so I could go around shooting people, because I think that that is the most fun aspect of the game.

I'd like to reiterate for the sixth or seventh time, that when I buy a game, I buy it for the quality, not the simplicity. Perhaps the game I purchase is simple, but it gives me a good feeling, I mean, Zelda is one of my favorite series. It's a pretty simple game, but it's such a well made series that I feel very fulfilled when completing the game.

Way to prove my point, simpleton. Mindless killing, sounds like a larf. In regards to the other thread that was locked before i could respond:

No, you can NOT make the same arguement. For as I have stated: The DS has all new interface. Touchscreen, built in mic, etc. PSP is the same thing, as you said "but littler". Really, do you think before you type or just beat your head into the key board?

[MlKE]

for the most part the remade/sequel games make very little use of the ds's new features, they might use the touchscreen as an analog stick, but the d-pad is just as good for controlling.

recall what i said, i said "the psp is LIKE the ps2, but littler", like as in, not exactly the same, you know why? becuase the games are different. The games are what makes a system. The PSP has the power of a PS2, that is what that quote that you keep on reminding me of means IN context. Taken out of context you can make it mean anything, and that's what you are doing.

And what the hell is a larf?

As we've established, the games are the bloody same. Oh lookie, different colour cars. They are the same tired games, with the same tired gameplay on a smaller screen with limited battery life. The DS makes great use of the touch screen. Have you not played feel the magic? Or even the mini games in super mario 64. Which are incredibly addictive. But you know, I should just plop down 200 bucks for a smaller PS2. Great plan. How am I taking things out of context? Really, you are a special kind of stupid.

Larf is a bit of slang for laugh, nevermind, it was lost on you.
