Um, I wasn't talking about you specifically.DarkSaber said:And posting flames and personal attacks to provoke a reaction makes you a troll. Funny you forgot that.Sylocat said:Well, this is the internet. Hating everything makes you cool and edgy, liking anything makes you a fanboy.DarkSaber said:That goes for anything. Business operates on the principle that if someone likes something, they will tell one other person about it, but if they don't like something they will tell 3 people. Don't know how they got that statistic, but they tend to operate with that in mind.Sylocat said:What do you expect? In the Brawl and Mailbag comments threads, Yahtzee's fanbase outnumbered Nintendo's fanbase by about 3 to 1, and they were still complaining of persecution from some "massive army" of Nintendo fanboys.quickpaw said:snip
I am thoroughly convinced, by now, that the people who hate the Wii spend much more time talking about it than the people who love it.
Everyone knows Yahtzee IS The Elitist, sorry, Escapist.quickpaw said:Well I had hoped that this was the escapist I had heard about not Yahtzee's fanboy cave. Clearly I was mistaken.Sylocat said:What do you expect?

Instead of attempting to counter my statement or actually argue with me you come out with your pathetic snide little comment. You're clearly a fine member of the escapist.nathan-dts said:Nintendo haven't made a good console since the Nintendo 64.quickpaw said:Well that was blatantly yet another anti Nintendo rant. God Yahtzee is such a fanboy.

Well, he HAS said he is very much aware of the hypocrisy, thank you, on a couple of occasions.Lordofthesuplex said:Kinda hypocritical for him when you think about what he said regarding console bashing/praising in the Mailbag Showdown regarding Brawl. Unless I'm thick and missed something. (And that's usually the case)quickpaw said:Well that was blatantly yet another anti Nintendo rant. God Yahtzee is such a fanboy.
okay call me a fanboy but killzone 2 deserves a full review not just 2 sentances wich by the looks of it only reviewed the traliers and where did he get germans from i mean guys with glowing red gogles and breading gas masks germans?? ok sure it was made by germans but theres noting to do with germans at all!!! and another thing the setting is 2152 or sumtaing along those lines + the only thing it has the same as gears is the colour wich it is better then with the lighting effets and i could go on more but the bottem line isJonnWood said:I sense incoming Killzone 2 fanboy flames. Hit the deck!
And on his personal site http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/ he explains why you are likely not to get one.Breno said:okay call me a fanboy but killzone 2 deserves a full review not just 2 sentances wich by the looks of it only reviewed the traliers and where did he get germans from i mean guys with glowing red gogles and breading gas masks germans?? ok sure it was made by germans but theres noting to do with germans at all!!! and another thing the setting is 2152 or sumtaing along those lines + the only thing it has the same as gears is the colour wich it is better then with the lighting effets and i could go on more but the bottem line isJonnWood said:I sense incoming Killzone 2 fanboy flames.

i want killzone 2 review!!!!!!!
I don't count them because then at least half of the games ever made would be T's.cutekittenkyti said:and do games starting with "the" count as T's or as the letter the second word starts with???
I was thinking that too.lasherman said:I hate when yahtzee suggests Killzone is ripping of Gears of War (Gears of World War Two?). Killzone 1 came out about 2 years before gears of war 1. if anything, gears is ripping off Killzone
He said he was very much aware he is a hypocrite a few times. He doesn't care.willard3 said:I was thinking that too.lasherman said:I hate when yahtzee suggests Killzone is ripping of Gears of War (Gears of World War Two?).

It seems Yahtzee is getting a bit hypocritical...he wants games to be wacky over-the-top bundles of pure fun that don't take themselves seriously, but yet bashes on the Wii for providing such things. (not that the vast amounts of shovelware are GOOD, but it has the most that could fall into his category)
When he plays a PS3 or 360 game, he inevitably bashes it for taking itself too seriously and not including automatic rocket launchers, wacky hairstyles and heroin-pissing T-rexes. Then he turns around and bashes the Wii for not being "hardcore" enough. Make up your mind.
Note: I am not a Nintendo fanboy by any means; I own a 360 and not a Wii.
