I especially loved:

"MvC3 Super Alpha Mega Beta Arcade Extreme Deluxe Turbo Edition"

Please, do not stop making threads like this. By the way, I'm a huge Nintendo fan, and I can't wait to see all of the umbrage and outrage this incurs. That will make it even funnier.

There were a couple parts where I said "That's just not fair" but that's just me.
It was really funny for the most part.

Wow this is fuck retarded. Fail is fail.
Seriously, don't you think it takes away from the efficacy of your insults when they are worded in a way that would make Orwell cringe? Every word of your brief post radiates arrogance. Why do people assume they're better than others because they use terrible, unattractive, artless, virtually meaningless sentences like "fail is fail," and why does everyone who needlessly throws a "fuck" into a sentence think he sounds like Tarantino?

That wasn't rhetorical; I really do want to know.

SO you think the Sony part was fair, but the other ones weren't, and you're claiming he's biased.
It's not so much the others weren't that funny, it's that the Sony one was the best delivered. The Valve one was ok, but was a bit long for a "Valve Time" joke (to me, at least). And the bias claim is more that if he/she made this joke about any other company (except maybe Activision or EA), everyone would be on the OP's ass.

Very funny, as many have already said the Sony one made me crack up laughing. Oh and it's not bias it's hyperbole, this guy may not even be a nintendo fan, heck the whole thing is based on Nintendo getting drunk and calling up third party developers for content because they can't be bothered making anything new on their own. Like I said, it's hyperbole, the matriach of comedy. It's essentially every webcomic based on videogames (so like EVERY webcomic) summed up in one forum post.

Because, it's ironic and ironic is cool.

Seriously, I have no idea, I've been asking the same thing for yonks. Something to do with rebellion, not talking educated when you aren't forced to and the forcefullness and forbidden nature of swear words. Childish stuff, you know.

OT: I actually liked this, something a little less obvious would be good with the whole phone call style, like maybe game characters? I dunno, all I'm saying is, if you've got more let's hear 'em.

It's not, though. Not ironic at all. By the way, none of the hipsters I know, not the douchebaggy ones or the cool, interesting, subversive ones or the dorks who just like to stretch their lobes and wear purple in their hair like things "ironically" or dress a certain way to be ironic. When you see that shit on sitcoms it's usually the product of a TV writer who isn't as smart as he thinks he is and, much like many escapists, doesn't understand irony. So perhaps this person thinks he is being ironic/sarcastic, but he seems to understand what makes these things work. I worked with a massive tool of a hick who had an appropriately alliterative hillbilly name who tried to verbally bully me on a regular basis. Problem was, he was sarcastic so often that his sarcasm didn't work any more. He never ever stopped being sarcastic, and ended up saying quite a bit that was damned near Freudian. "I'm just a big dumb hick." Well, yeah, I can't really argue there. How can anyone think they're better than someone else because they can't properly speak/spell when insulting them?

Well, I found it amusing, and this is a guy who wears Zelda and Yoshi T-shirts on a regular basis. So, yeah, fanboy, we need some Konami in this though. There's definitely some material to be had with their Layton rip-off and MGS3 port (That comes out AFTER the HD collection...). What? You want me to make the jokes? No you don't...
