The true answer to many things on these forums.
We say it a lot, yeah. We wouldn't have to, though, if people wouldn't quit forgetting it.
Wait, I forget... what do we keep forgetting?

Anyway, I like X and Y. Also some of Z.

What does that make me?

Pfft, X is just a bad remake of H, which BTW had much deeper and more complex mechanics. X was dumbed down for all the console kiddies.

X was actually pretty decent. X3: Reunion crashed alot and sucked.

All I can say is that space trading games aren't for everyone.
looking through thread for this response, was not disappointed

Oh please, you people arguing over X and Y. They're both just the same game. ALL the games from genre E are just modeled after the success of game A. You people should play some games from genre P, at least those have some variety. Try out ö. That's a pretty good one.

So after being bothered by my cousin/friend/neighbor/villain/pet/lost twin to play X for a while now I decided to give it a try and honestly after playing for about 13 seconds I don't see what the big deal about X is! The story is just a generic fantasy/sci-fi/horror/drama, the characters with complex personalities and epic moments are forgettable OH and the GAMEPLAY! dear god! I mean I know this game came out years ago and every other game of the genre copied/based it off on this game but WHY IS IT JUST LIKE Y, Z OR Q FOR THAT MATTER?! I mean those games came out like less than a year ago and X is already ripping them off! Why are people having other opinions other than MINE?!?!

I now await your responses to my post constantly pressing the F5 button but never replying to any of your posts and you won't ever see me again in any other threads.... OR I will reply to your well thought out argument with vague extremely biased short sentences, while completely avoiding your points.

What? search function? never heard of it. Planning to post this again next week...after all...there is NO WAY someone has ever thought of this same thing before and posted it and got a several page thread started that's just silly.
Oh man...thank you for the laugh my friend. I needed it today. XD

Now all we have to do is wait for the people to come in and post snarky comments on how your thread topic is "ironic" for perpetuating the very thing you're parodying. THAT'LL teach you to question their epic levels of "cool-hip-ness".

2 things. half-life and skyrim. OH MY RAPTORJESUS do people have a raging hard-on for these two games. I don't even know why people like those two games. And i was born in 1990 so you'd think i would have at least played the first one but i never got around to it. Skyrim, that one is ok. I mean I personally get REALLY bored with the whole fantasy magic-y setting. Im more of a sci-fi guy...halo, starcraft, mass effect, stuff like that. But still people LOVE these two games but they make me yawn and go "meh".
Looks like someone missed the point of the thread. By miles. :/

Don't feel bad Poncey. You're not alone. I counted at least five other posters who missed the joke too. Oh well.

Random comment regarding thread title that shows I just skimmed the OP.

Cynically insult everyone arguing about opinions. Complain about said discussion.

*Proceeds to make thread complaining about said discussions about opinions that turn to poo-slinging*

X? pfft, K is so much better! X is lacking in everything! K is the best ever!
X is obviously the superior evolution to K, seriously, X is a completed K. K is still wandering around in its infantile stages

Why do people like X?
Well shit, how could you NOT like X?
The dude is in a wheelchair and he's STILL a psychic bad-ass who leads one of the most powerful forces ever!

On a more serious note, clever thread. However, I think we at this forum have officially gone so far up our own asses that we have gone into our own skulls and are now controlling our own bodies, but from within our heads.

Gameplay? Gameplay!? YOU PEOPLE AREN'T LOOKING AT THE BIG PICTURE HERE!

X isn't great because of gameplay, it's good because it's just such a great parody! Seriously, if we look at it as a regular generic game of it's genre it is...just a generic game of it's genre. But, the damned thing is just so tongue-in-cheek and so much leaning on the fourth wall that i swear it's a parody. I mean, cmon, who can forget the line:

main character: Blanks!? *looks at camera* Ok seriously! What is with you people and making me fight Blanks!?
