"There's people who played games all their life, and then there's..." HAHAHA.
Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds?[/quote]
Well there are. we are those who have no life's when you where young did you ever notice there where the children from your school you NEVER saw outside? they where busy tucked away in a dark hidey place playing games until they pass out due to lack o' food and/or sleep. I was one whoo! addmitingly Im never fond of my own posts and s instead of insulting the crap out of gaming, I just point my Wii-tard freinds in the general direction of Yahtzee's Reveiws, and hope that their thick skulls can understand half the stuff he says, without falling onto the ground from the slightest hint of anything complex.
Short version of before post would be the gamers who surronded me used to just either shoot the crap out of each other on an Xbox, or complete some long new adventure game, and then talk about it the next couple of weeks, nowerdays all I hear is "oh wii is such a smart and intellegent console and really helps you exersize (<-can't spell)" and "Oh yay a new mario game it is so awesome and great and amazing" I much preferd listening to people talking about blowing the crap out of each other on one game, or talking about some game with a good plot, or just good games in general.. Like any of the halflife series. (portal included), instead of gimickey same old crap.. like say Mario.
Nyeh I stop talking now, I suppose some of you might get where I'm coming from here.

I think what worries me most is that people actually sent emails to Yahtzee. I mean, what could they possibly hope to accomplish with that?
It's always funny seeing how people react when their work gets criticized, specially when they spend most of their time critisizing other peoples work...
When it comes to Yahtzee, the difference between the people he made fun of and him isn't that big...
Anyways, keep up the good work Yahtzee, maybe someday you'll get to make real reviews.

This for example, is something I expect in the hatemails.Yahtzee said:

You really are missing the point I'm making.renard said:
Brawl is being billed by all the fanboys as "one of the ultimate party games" so, you take it round a friends house, and the hugely hyped advertised characters are locked.
You've then got to play a stupid ammount of times to unlock 'em.
It's like Bishi Bashi Special going "yeah, there's a load of games, but you're stuck with the truck driving game for half an hour until you unlock 'em".
The unlock system in brawl is a bag of crap, and I actually feel sorry for my friend who had to sit down and unlock the fucking thing just so he felt he was getting his money's worth.
Yahtzee is the shit! It's awsome that he didn't just say "fuck you" but instead took the time to logically respond to the hate mail. That's classy right there.
Because without unlockable stuff, the game would be pretty shallow, plus it gives the person an aim to go for.s0denone said:
I wonder how many of the people who say that they don't like this (sort of) review are people who have sent an email to Yahtzee in the past. It might be an interesting statistic.
I am disappointed with your review of my favourite game. You should give it a higher score because I like it. Why are you so harsh to my favourite game. What is wrong with Nintendo? Why do you dislike the fact that they have been milking the same franchise for the past 10 years.
I think you (Yahtzee), knew what you was getting yourself into when you made your review on Smash Bros Brawl... and for that, I love you. I think that every person who comes onto this forum to complain about your inabilities as a game critic really needs to reflect on their own lives a little and come to understand that a single man's opinions on a game are not that of a deity. If you disagree with what a person is saying, then you are usually better off not trying to sway that person's opinion, but instead accept that one person has an opposing view.
Criticism should only shape character, not define it completely... in other words, try and look at something from another viewpoint all the time.
I consider this a great first post on this forum. Hello Everyone.

SSB strikes again. It's as if he does, indeed, use his traffic figures to measure his worth as a human being. Otherwise we wouldn't be here headed for another 1000 post nightmare as all the fan boys come out AGAIN to tell us how anyone who doesn't enjoy the game is retarded.
I don't normally post comments, but this episode rocked way too much. Someone needed to take the fan boys down a peg, and you handled it better than anyone else.
First they criticize you for not being pissy enough in "Psychonauts," and then they criticize you for being too pissy in "Super Smash Bros Brawl." Just say whatever you want about anything - you do it better than everyone else anyway.
