What is the most rediculous thing someone has said to you as a matter of fact about a video game...

[Ronwue]

... How the hell am I drawing a blank on this....

Ah, I was at a lan new year's party back in middle school with some friends, and I can't really recall what we were playing. I shouted RPG and the dude went "What?". The next thing he knew his character blew up. I laughed at him

 

[fletch_talon]

"only fags like pokemon".

I find myself agreeing with this one.

You find yourself full of shit then
I am neither woodpile nor cigarette nor homosexual and I enjoy the pokemon games.

"The Legend of Spyro series is as good as or better than the old series"

Now I don't give a crap what the gameplay is like in the new games or any of that stuff, the fact is they stripped spyro down to being a purple dragon and completely erased everything that made the originals fun and... original.

I swear it could only be worse if they had taken spyro and put him a GTA style game, speaking of which.

"That could actually be a good game" (referring to the above)

That actually claims the prize in my books.

 

[Incompl te]

During Windwaker (whatever it's called) - "You're sister is Zelda!!!"

"The Nurse in the Pokecentres teleports from city to city"

Had to laugh at the Pokemon one though.

And you apparently don't know that fag(if context == people) != homosexual.

 

[LOOY]

Paedophiles use Video Games to groom children...

 

[Zetona]

"Metal Gear Solid 4 has the best voice acting of any game released this year." - Gamespot.

Yeah, um...no. And I could explain why, if asked.

 

[Aardvark]

That. After reading that, I'd equate you with a bundle of sticks. Probably lower.

As a small child, other school children constantly telling me how they'd just gotten the sequel to some awesome game that isn't out here yet (Street Fighter 3 was a common one, as SF2 had only just come out at the time), which their dad just got from his trip to Japan.

Of course, any attempts at having them produce said mythical games usually resulted in something along the lines of, "Oh dad won't let me take it to school incase it gets stolen."

"You should really buy Sonic: unleashed!"
-girlfriend who played the game.

 

[JokerGrin]

Even more extreme, a friend of mine told me, a year after it came out, that the Orange Box was bad because it was old. I kid you not.

I trust you have eliminated the person in question?

Also "Video games aren't for having fun!" I had to fucking remind myself how to breathe.

HNNNNNGGGG! Make it painful.

This fag = homosexual thing is pretty stupid. I might run a campaign for higher quality insults. Also, is this the same DirkGently from Ultimate Guitar? Just wondering.

"Mirror's Edge kicked ass!"

It did, it was just far too short.

Someone once tried to tell me shadow hearts 2 doesn't have an ending, so I told him to go home and find the second disc.

Really? I kinda just got bored, at about the time I entered the sewer level.

And I've heard the "doesn't have an ending" quote concerning allot of games. I always respond with "no, you just suck".

 

[BIGpanda]

I like the pokemon one...then again I've been on pokemon until the yellow version...should I be offended?

anyways

"WHOA, biggest tits ever!" (I was playing my only fav JRPG, go figure.)

"strategy games are for pussies!" this one broke afew dozen strings in my mind...I could have killed him.

 

[Avatar Roku]

"Mirror's Edge kicked ass!"

I agree.

 

[Ultrajoe]

If I had a penny for every time I was in primary school and someone claimed to know how to get a Mew in pokemon...

I do.

Seriously.

'Why does Halo always end up killing rings?', one friend said.

 

[BLOONINJA 503]

"FALLOUT 3 is better than FALLOUT 2"

"I have mad skillz on HALO 3"

the latter was said by my jock friend...

 

[SeanTheIrishBastard]

I once dated someone who thought Mario was sexy.

 

[Blind0bserver]

"Warhammer Online is a blatant rip-off of WoW. (this gripe also extends to any allegations of the Tyranids ripping of the Zerg and other idiotic claims)

*sigh* Ignorant fucking cretins. Everything Games Workshop makes that people say they stole from Blizzard predates everything Blizzard has ever made. As far as the subject goes, Penny Arcade said it first, and they said it best.

Spoiler

 

[Mrsoupcup]

Edie: "Princess peach is sooo hot"

Me: "Get the Fuck away from my Wii, Stop rubbing yourself and GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!"

Me latter: "I need an Xbox.... and a new Friend... Mabey just and Xbox will do...."

Why is that ridiculous?

Hohoho.

Well I enjoyed it anyway.
The problem is it's like if prince of persia had only 4 levels, lots of the games charm could have been explored and given time to grow on you but the player never really gets a chance to feel things out.
