Personally, I believe it to be true still. I mean, look at many of the other sites out there? No offense to the people from 4chan, but... I pointing in that direction
Oh, we hated 4chan. Hated 4chan. Ah, good times. Good, times.

But no, we're just a game website now. Albeit with better videos. I like that, though.

Great, now I'm nostalgia-ing over the days my post count had two digits and I hated anime. This thread is making me feel old, like some forgotten relic with a handful of other users from the olden days before the population boom.

Bro, I've seen more intelligent discussion occur during my first five minutes on 4chan then I've yet to see in the months I've been posting on this site.
While I like the Big Picture, I have to agree there, though I don't go to 4chan. Their layout is/was painful.

Nintendo's Mario team really don't seem to have any ambition besides subsisting on bits of crust they can scrape from the pimply underbelly of nostalgia, lest anything as dangerous as a new idea appear in their brains and give them a fucking seizure! But as the disbelieving friend said to the inventor of the feces-powered helicopter, "This shit will not fly!"

- Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw
Yes, another Yahtzee quote.

Half of the shit Monkfish posts is genius.

Example, on a thread asking if children should be shielded from nudity to stop them from being disturbed, he posted:

Monkfish Acc. said:
Nudity is a terrible and unnatural thing that children should not be exposed to.
Breasts and penises are filthy lies and young ones are so impressionable. What if they get it into their heads that everyone has genitals.

What if one saw a bum and realised everybody poops.

He'll be pleased you said that, half the time people don't even get he's joking. xD

OT: I can't remember many off the top of my head, and the few I can are a bit offensive. I like how a lot are from Yahtzee though. =P

I didn't do a direct quote, I doubt he'll end up seeing it because of that.

Really, his avatar fits his humor so well.

"And some look like the love child between Jack Sparrow and a crack donkey."

Taken from a review I co-wrote with VaudevillianVeteran and that I posted here, talking about the X-Factor's contestants.
Quoting yourself? I thought only Jerry Springer did that Sass.

Actually, Vaude wrote that part and posted it. I sort of mixed up my own information. >_>

So you're stealing credit are you? I'm ashamed to call you my local parody of a sarcastic GP.

Well...yes and no. It's complicated. She wrote the bit I quoted and posted the review as a whole but it was my idea for the dual review and I also wrote some. I'll just link it so you can read it. :p Link [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.250859-Sassavillian-Reviews-The-X-Factor]

Since I find myself funny I will now quote my personal favorite post in the "What would you do if you had an AT-AT or an AT-ST" thread.

staika said:
Drive around the ghettos of the world blasting some horrible rap song as loud as I can with half of my body outside the window with my hat on sideways and a pissed off look on my face while my AT-AT bounces along with the beat of the song.

Racist, yes
worth it, hell yeah
That's not funny.
......... I found it funny :(

someone else did too, that makes...... 2 people.
I found it amusing, so that adds another person who thought it was amusing

"Between these guys and those robots from star wars you'd think rolling into a ball would make you pretty deadly, and yet; the armadillo."
-unskippable 1

"Gather my party and venture forth, Huzzah!"

I don't know what made that so great, maybe the way Greg said it in the video. (Dragon age PC review)

I can't remember it exactly, but Yahtzee's line about JRPGs, something along the lines of
"For those of you who don't know, my opinion of Japanese RPGs can generally be summed up in something along the lines of NNNNMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHRRR"

I think in one of the Zynga threads:

HardRockSamurai said:
A company that makes multiplayer facebook games admits to being a SCAMMER?

That's like if a lobster admitted that it has pincers, or if a shoe admitted that it was a shoe.
I laughed hard the first time I read that.
