Mirror's Edge is the pinnacle of platformers and "evasion-style" games.

Making RPGs more intuitive and accessible does not make them less hardcore. Deal with it.
Intuitive and accessible is great.

Dumbed down and simplified for the lowest common denominator is not.

Bring back D&D rules!
You're exactly the kind of person my post was aimed at. Always crying foul when developers take a step away from the traditional PC RPG model.

You are not special for liking Black Ops either.
This thread is fun but really hard not to troll.
Mainstream games suck is not a valid argument.
You are not special.
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
You are the same decaying organic matter as everyone else.

Deal with it.

Mass Effect had cool ideas but was horribly paced and boring
Wind Waker was better than Ocarina of Time
It's not a statue, its an action figure
The average member of the gaming community is the number one problem facing gaming culture
Halo was a good game with great multiplayer usually hated out of petty spite
Duke Nukem sucks
The "frat boy" stereotype is no less insulting or ignorant than the "gamer" stereotype
Games CAN BE art
Bioware games are typically plodding, unintuitive and bloated
WoW is a well designed, engaging gaming experience
Minecraft can get boring
Piracy of games is never justified
Most classic games kind of suck now
Casual gamers are still gamers
FPS's are just as viable as a narrative experience as an RPG
Piracy prevention protocols are not the fault of companies but the community
There is no greedy game corporation, but hard working men and women trying to support dozens if not hundreds of employees
The X-Box live community needs to be culled
Valve's game release schedule and pre-release information policy is awful and weakens the company as a whole
"Artsy" games can still suck because even there overall message or larger point does not excuse bad design
No game company cares about you as much as you think
It is not "us" against "them". You just made that up to seem hardcore
Your Mom was right and you really do need to get outside once in a while
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was the best game ever made
Final Fantasy VII is not overrated

This was a cleansing experience

Deal with it.

I don't think COD is that good of a series
Buying a game for the multiplayer only is stupid
I refuse to buy the Wii
Motion controls are a waste of my time
I hate Microsoft and nothing they do will change my mind
I think Halo is highly overrated
Final Fantasy XIII is one of my favorite games ever
War games are boring as hell and I hate myself playing them

Deal with it.

Hope and Vanille are not retarded, just incredibly misunderstood by the gamers who don't know how it feels like to have a crisis hitting you in the face.

Deal with it.

Male Commander Shepard was a more memorable character due to his voice (Mark Meer)- compared to Female Shepard, voiced by veteran, recognizable (by no means worse, though) voice actor, Jennifer Hale.

Navi was not as annoying as you're remembering she was.

The Donkey Kong Country series, in my opinion, was better than Super Mario Bros in nearly every way.

John Marston is the best new game character of this console generation.
Mordin Solus is the best new non-playable character of this console generation.

I wish that Pokemon had ended after Gold/Silver (even though I knew it wouldn't)

(most) JRPGs still cling to outdated gameplay mechanics & narratives for either the sake of nostalgia or lack of innovation.

Homefront's attempt to repackage Red Dawn as a new property should be insulting to our intelligence.

Ocarina of Time, much like Final Fantasy VII should be revered and remembered for the important milestone they set for their franchises- not because they're the be-all-end-all best games from their respective series, because they're certainly not. Wind Waker and Final Fantasy IX blew the aforementioned games out of the water. Great games, but past successes cannot be our potential.

These days Mario And nintendo in general is no better than call of duty and activision in terms of innovation.
Shadow of the colossus is the best game ever made, this is NOT a matter of opinion.

Deal with it.

*quoted specifically for your comment on KOTOR*
KOTOR isn't turn based. You can have it real time, or make it so it pauses so you can plan out your moves better. It's a game of strategy, not reflexes. And just because you don't like it, or turn based strategy, doesn't make it obsolete (though, for the record, I'm not a fan of Final Fantasy in general)

I also feel called to point out that KOTOR is almost a decade old, so all your bitching on that game specifically is really a moot point if you're talking about something being obsolete by today's standards.

Deal with it.
Ah ha, okay I stand corrected. Everyone I talked to who was really into KoTOR made it sound like it was purely turn based, and so I never played it. I'll exclude KoTOR from the rant, then. Still, even at a decade old, I stand by my assertion that there's no excuse for turn based play. Deus Ex, which I mentioned, is 11 years old and it shows how role playing should be in video games. By obsolescence I think more along the lines of 1994, rather than 2000. A whole lot happened in those six years. By the time the Quake 3 and Unreal engines came about in 1999, it was definitely time to say bye-bye to turn based. For some reason, even with today's standards, they keep making these damn games. Not everything has to be about reflexes. It can be about stealth, plot choices, character interaction and yes, even about gaining new abilities, but a player should still ultimately have to face down a threat as it happens. So...

Deal with it.

Oblivion was better than Morrowind.
The New Fallout games are better than the old ones.
Half-Life 2 was just as revolutionary as its predecessor.

Take off your nostalgia glasses and deal with it.

Oh, also, Mass Effect and Dragon Age may be great stories, but they're mediocre games.
Braid was pretentious and overrated.
Rise of Legends should have gotten an expansion and a sequel.
PC gamers who flaunt their platform are not always wrong.
There has yet to be an MMO that takes advantage of the genre in any meaningful way.
DWI.

I use to play MMOs constantly for years until I finally got completely sick of grinding which is all those games are.

Deal with it

I'm boycotting EA for numerous reasons.

Status magic is only as useless as you are unwilling to use it.

Most JRPGs do not require level grinding, you just don't know how to properly manage your party.
