STFU! Please...

[William Ossiss]

We gamers are a spoiled bunch. I grew up with gaming and consoles (my first was a ZX Spectrum back in the 80's) and I don't know what happened, but I long for the day when we, as a community, stop bitching about the "Evil Corps" that make and sell us our games and consoles.

"Sony sucks!"

"Microsoft sucks!"

"Nintendo sucks!"

We get it! You hate those corporations, even as you buy and use their games. Now, please, can we just move the fuck on?! It's getting really fucking annoying to hear these "Hero of the People" speeches in every bit of news and every posted thread in these forums!

Thank you for your cooperation.

i play everything. the xbox fries after about a year (old ones at least).
nintendo panders to "social gamers".
and sony is... well, bad games and a crappy controller.

i like the god of war series. bought a ps3 for it. plus the psn games... awesome.
the wii is fun at first. and mario galaxy (2) is pretty cool. and the virtual console is great.
microsoft has a lot of good games i enjoy. and i like their controller.
the pc offers a lot of games i would enjoy, but alas... i have not the hardware to run some of them the way i'd like.

all in all, play games. not because they're from a certain brand of console version. play them because of their merits. be an All Around Gamer. like me.

Oh man, that one was hilarious.

I wanna necro those threads suddenly...but fear the backlash

That would be twice as hilarious, because nobody would realize the date on the posts.

Relive the joy!

Ah, memories...

Hilariously, stupid memories.

Hey. Our own JulianKing is in there. As a TC. Without intent to argue, but it still sparks the same shit.

God...a lot of old, now banned users in those topics...

This was only 1 1/2 years ago, too...

Yep. Good times, good times...

Kind of makes me wonder how I made it this far, since looking through my older posts, I was quite the ass-hole.

Oh you know what else is annoying?

When people make posts complaining about people complaining and actually think it will make a diffrence, No it will not why?, Beacuse this threads going to go out of view soon enough or another persons going to come along and make a thread complaining.

The means doesn't justify the resualts.

And by complaining about him complaining about people complaining, you've created a sort of cycle of complaints, which I'm continuing by complaining about your post.

 

[AngryMongoose]

Good point. We should just accept these companies for all their failings. We should accept everything they put out as it is. We should not voice our opinions on what can be improved. We should not hope for a better industry, even if there is room for improvement.

Obviously we should not feel entitled to anything. Our job is to consume whatever we're given, and not to give lip about it's quality. We are consumers, not critics. We should barely be allowed opinions, because we just ruin stuff with them.

We as consumers can barely elevate ourselves above dragging our knuckles across the ground, and hamfistedly smashing controllers in a futile attempt to experience the perfection created by our masters. Barely evolved from ape level, we should not dare to question the choices of our gaming overlords, who most assuredly know better. We should be content to merely kiss the dirt beneath our true gods feet. How dare scum suggest otherwise?

The backlash is the best bit; I'm starting to feel like an undercover troll these days.

Well, I linked to a bunch of them in this thread. Necro away. And enjoy the carnage.

It's almost as annoying as people complaining in a thread complaining about people complaining.

OT: People just hate evil big businesses. They saw to much Captain Planet, where all capitalism is Eeeevilllllll

Almost as annoying as people complaining about someone complaining about a thread about people complaining!

Spoiler:

OT: People are going to complain, it is just going to happen, it is best to keep your head above it and ignore it.

Incomparable.

They're nothing alike, and since you're not paying, why not get both since you wanted Fallout anyway?

Thus, the Woodsinator has ended another of life's bum-fondling dilemmas.

The two replies I could find from myself in them. I wonder what happened to all that impartiality? Probably went away when I stopped the bum-fondling.

[sub]Wait...[/sub]

Still, why necro when there are so many popping up now that are fresh for the taking?!

Onwards and trollupwards!

 

[yanipheonu]

Eh people hate things. It's just something you're going to have to deal with.

I do like to have a chuckle at how evil EA seem to be but in a fond and amused way. I often chuckle at them putting their network in ME2 as the evil cerberus corporation. I still buy thier games though

ps: Okay I'll bite at the OffTopicness.

Remember the "Fallout 3 vs Borderlands" debate of yore? Most pointless debate ever.

Whut? those are totally different games.. I mean similar style but totally different genres :| Where was the argument.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Yep. Good times, good times...

Kind of makes me wonder how I made it this far, since looking through my older posts, I was quite the ass-hole.

Same here.

Hell, I still am at times.

Exactly the point. EXACTLY THE POINT.

It was pointless, but a very popular argument.

 

[Sir Thomas Sean Connery]

You know what else is annoying about us? How self hating we have become.

Quit whining about yourselves and have some pride in who you are!

Indeed. There are more games we can stupidly compare!

Like Mafia and Grand Theft Auto!

Same here.

Hell, I still am at times.

And Oblivion and Two Worlds!

And in similar style I mean post apocalyptic not even the art style was the same...

I don't even....what?

Mindboggling.

Woodsinator...

I gotta try the Onyxinator.

 

[Nouw]

Yeah because a thread is totally going to help.

Yo dawg, we herd you like complaining, so we put a complaint in a complaint, so you can complain while you complain.

I love you for that post.

Indeed. Even if your a dick. Take pride in it!

Just don't be a dick about it.

And yes I'm hoping a dick will read this and the dick's head will explode or something.

Boy this is a colorful post, isn't it?

This means you're not insane. It's perfectly normal to go "WHAT?".

Yes please everyone stop with these stupid threads.
They're worse than the actual threads about hating companies, and these have less conversational value.
