"There was no porn in it. Fox LIED, Mass Effect 2 sucks."
I swear this is true. I have mix feelings however. On one hand it's shallow, on the other hand, he listened to Fox news which gave me a good laugh.
That I have said myself: "There isn't a fucking PC port for Halo: Reach."

I hate all Steam games because of Steam.
I had my first encounter with Steam when I bought Empire Total War. I bought the disc version, so I was surprised when I had to install Steam to register through Steam. The fact I bought the disc should be evidence that I don't want Steam. Steam forced itself onto my PC (aka RAPE). I had to go through msconfig to make it not start up when my PC did. It robs memory for its own purposes, bans me from playing my games unless I install the patch, and very often won't let me play the game at all if I am not connected to the internet (even after registering). Steam demos don't work 90% of the time. Despite my PC having all the requirements, the demos just outrighr refuse to work. They then refuse to be deleted (the Amnesia demo for example would not go away so I had to go into my filesystem and delete it that way).
When I bought New Vegas, I would start the game, then use the task manager to get rid of Steam as soon as I could.
I FUCKING HATE STEAM!!!!!! But my hate is justified therefore my dumb reason for hating a game due to it involving Steam is not as dumb as originally thought.

I have never played Zelda Twilight Princess or any Zelda game for that matter but I know for a fact that they are all awful because of how many of them there are, that was a summary of what someone said to me once when I mentioned how fun Zelda is, he had the same opinion about Mario but the difference was that he has actually played lots of Mario games & he loved all of them.
Yeah, but there's a lot more crap on my Wii
.Seriously, though. There is a Wii in my house. It's sitting downstairs. I just can't bring myself to LIKE it. As I've pointed out now, most of my hatred for the machine comes from the flood of annoying "super-casual" games. And I'll admit straight off that my hatred of Wii exclusives for no reason other than being WII exclusive (as opposed to any other console) is a pretty petty reason. If the system makes a turnaround of some sort, I may begin to feel there's hope, but for now I just don't like it...though Netflix is helping with that.
And to add a little more to the original argument of hating a game because it's on the Wii, I can also agree with that sentiment if it is Cross-Console. While I can't claim personal experience, in most reviews I've read, the Wii version is the inferior. Again, I'm not claiming that's always the case, and I claim no personal experience to it, just something to look at.
Now that I've said everything I think I can say about it, what say we agree that this is just gonna run in circles and call this threadjacking over?
"You don't kill anybody"
"The graphics suck"
"Its a kid's game"
"It's on the Wii"
"Its 2D"
"They're all the same" (this one refers to long running series"

When I was going through a Gears fanboyism phase I got into an arguement with a guy over which game was better Gears or CoD5 he said CoD was better because
"Fighting aliens is for pussies you need to fight real people"
I've seen this used as a reason for not liking Halo, a lot of PS3 people would say that CoD games were grittier and thus better. Now I like CoD myself but I don't consider it better than Halo because I get to fight humans in CoD.
He also said CoD was better because in Gears people don't react to getting shot in the crotch which has become a running joke between me and my friends. "Its a great game but where are the crotch shots, c'mon F--"

Because of hairstyles...
"I won't play Bionic Commando because he has dreads..."
Really?
Why not avoid it because it desecrated a sacred childhood memory?
Or just because Spiderman 2 out bionicked Bionic Commando...

Incidentally I don't watch his video if it's a game I'm currently playing or soon will be. He's ruined a few that way. Not his fault. I'm just impressionable.Zantos said:
Well to be fair, that art style really doesn't appeal to everyone. I won't flatout not play a game because of it's art style, but it certainly is a point against it.hazabaza1 said:
OT-"Because it's popular", and worse more, it was said by multiple people on this site who I otherwise respected. For shame.
There was one with someone I know;
It is terrible because it is on steam. Last time I tried to use that it would start up all the time and eat memory and things.
I told him that I would help him fix all the settings and show how the community in game feature comes in handy when we wanted to speak.
He just said 'BAH STEAM SUX'.
Bastard.
......thankfully, some time later, he did actually let me show him the ropes and now he loves it.

...I was actually thinking Zelda, Mario, Super Meat Boy, Portal, and Animal Crossing. But Pokemon works too.arc1991 said:
