Now for the top 10 dumbest things i've ever heard while playing games. (no particular order)

1: [company name] is just in it for the money.

(news flash einstein, if they weren't in it for the money they'd be on floats handing the damn things out.)

2: 2D sucks because it's old.

(2D only sucks if you have no appreciation for well made 2D, lemme guess, you also hate musuems because they're boring?)

3: Nintendo is the driving force of innovation.

(uh huh........ yeah... Color of the sky in your world?)

4: Why did you get that king of fighters? (friend while holding the new 3D one which has the combo system of a retarded rhesus monkey, and me having the 2D PS2 pack)

5: Omg roms means ur stealing, ur not getting the same game. (I did not change any spelling in this)

(Let's see, Out of print and not in stores? check, company no longer gets cash or royalties? check, exact data as the original game byte for byte? check, I'd say you're wrong.)

6: All [insert fans of certain system or PC] are idiots.

(Not really true, except for N-gage fans, they worry me.)

7: Why would you want a neogeo when you can get an xbox for the same price?

(Maybe because I already have an xbox and want a neogeo?)

8: What's a SNES?

(Sad but true.)

9: I bet my [console game] looks better than [PC game]

(Never will, keep dreaming, but then again my PC cost twice your console price, it damn well better look better.)

10: [insert console name] will kill [insert console name].

(Last I checked, never in HISTORY, has any console killed any. If any failed it was by their own hand.)
 
i disagree with number 10.

The Atari 7800 was released to compete with the NES, ok ok it didn't have the best marketing but jesus, it was no comparison in quality to the NES and the NES destroyed it without batting an eye. But that's about the only situation i can think of that one system destroyed the other that was meant to compete against it.


The best i've heard was not about a game but a game system. I busted out the 2600 and my cousin said "holy crap its made out of wood, what is it, furniture?

lol
 
I miss the woodgrain 2600, the one I got much later to replace it was just plastic =/

and the atari comparison is a little bad, since atari was on the way out after the 2600 anyways.
 
Number Nine is a tad untrue

If you can get a PC for £80 (double the price of a £40 agmecube) that looks anywhere near s good as a gamecube i will give you lots and lots of money

and btw, i got round to renting KOF Maximum Impact and its not half bad (if you were gholding the 2000/2001 double pack i would prefer max impact
 
1: [company name] is just in it for the money.
Actually, there are some companies that are more in it for the games than for the money. Lionhead, for example is one of these, but they're extremely rare these days.

9: I bet my [console game] looks better than [PC game]
I bet my Xbox GTA: Vice City looks better than the PC version (but only if you take nothing but 3d engine modelling into account :p)
 
If you can get a PC for £80 (double the price of a £40 agmecube) that looks anywhere near s good as a gamecube i will give you lots and lots of money

Kinda why I said "It cost double what your console cost, it damn well better look better." I meant in essence "My PC cost more, so it should be able to look better than the console"

And if lionhead were in for it more than just the money wouldn't they release freeware? :p Just saying.

Anyways, back on topic.

Another dumb moment?

(while playing terranigma) "Is that zelda? it looks awesome!" "no," "Oh I don't wanna play then" <_<
 
I doubt lionhead are not more in it for the money. However I know someone who works there so may enquire if I can be assed - He certainly is mainly programming games for the money.
 
Actually Lionhead openly encourage their devrs to do freeware side projects using the companies resources

and example is RagoDoll KungFu

My friedn was in GAME with me yeserday, i was about to buy Viewtiful Joe 2 and he said "why the hell are you buying a kiddies game"
 
one of the sales staff in GAME was trying to convince me to get True Crime over Resi 4, explaining that if i wanted a mature game True Crime was "where its at" AND it was only half price

i chuckled, said the price tag didnt stop the game from being crap

then proceeded to walk to GS and buy Resi 4
 
"Third Party Support is not essential to prevailing in the next generation of consoles." - Saturo Iwata.
P.S. I hate the people that work at GAME. My mum went to get Viewtiful Joe and they said it was crap and handed her XIII and said that that was much better.

"I'd love to play some of the more recent PS2 games cos they look cool, I just hate PS2"

That was my mate who refuses to play anything on a PS2 just because its PS2...I try to get through the point that its the games which count but its like talking to a brick wall with super glue for mortar.
