"Call of Duty 6 is going to suck...Everyone in the freaking world is going to buy it, and it will be super-laggy because of it. Call of Duty 4 was like, the best selling game of all time."
...Where to even start? Firstly, Call of Duty 4 was pretty smooth with minimal lag and I bought it on the first day. I think it is fair to assume that Call of Duty 6 will be just fine. Secondly...Call of Duty 4 is HARDLY the best selling game of all time. It only broke like seven million, and that is only because they made it for almost everything. Call of Duty 4 on the 360 only sold about four million. It was certainly the best selling game in 2007, and one of the best selling games on current gen systems, but best selling game of all time? It wouldn't even make the Top 50 list...Unless of course the list includes only games from current gen systems.
"IT IS A DEMO!!"
I HATE people who use this excuse when someone has complaints about a game based on the demo. Yes, it is just a demo, but it is an accurate depiction of what the final game will be like. That is the cocking POINT of a demo! To give you a taste of what the game is like so you can decide if you want it or not. I have never, EVER seen a demo that is drastically different from the full game. The only difference is that the full game has much, much more content.
Every fucking time I see someone complain about a game based on the demo because of clunky controls, horrible HUD/UI design, icky gameplay mechanics, and similar such legitimate gripes there are always at least 50 people saying "IT IS JUST THE DEMO!!!" Really? Do you honestly, truthfully think that the full game will be completely different? If this was the case then demos wouldn't exist or have any point, because playing the demo to see how much you will like the full game would be about as helpful as asking the average cheerleader to help you figure out where the Togolese Republic is on a map of North America.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not one to say a game completely sucks based on the demo alone...Even though there are a lot of games I knew would suck after playing the demo. Merely, I'm saying that if the controls, gameplay mechanics, graphics, sound effects, and/or HUD/UI design are terrible in the demo, they will be just as terrible in the full game. After all, most demos are released soon before or soon after a game goes gold.
It isn't a gaming one, but a similar thing I found to be hilarious. Me and a friend were on the bus (Not a school bus) and these two really young kids were sitting behind us talking about Star Wars. Episode III was a few weeks away and they were discussing the prequels. One of them said "Yeah, I can't wait to see Anakin kick this Darth Vader dude's ass! He looks like such a pussy, I bet he is no match for Anakin!" My friend turned around and said "how old are you kids?" They were like ten and eleven. My friend said "Ah...too young to have seen the 'real' Star Wars trilogy...Okay, I'll let your ignorance slide...This time." The kids just stared at us as we laughed. To this day I still wish I was there to see their faces when they went to see Episode III...

Well, there was this Dutch magazine, who bashed Metal Gear Solid 2 because you had to play with Raiden. (they gave it 82/100 still, but...) Their main gripe with the game was that 'Snake dies'.
Yep. They ranted on about how Snake dies in the game, and how you get to play with a dumb character instead. Their reviews are pretty much worthless, really. it hasn't gotten better over the past few years.

"Master Chief could totally beat Samus in a fight! She wouldn't even stand a chance."-Said by a friend who I stopped discussing videogames with soon after
The only thing that bothers me about Turok is that when you push the mouse up the aiming thingey goes down - A friend not even realising that it can be undone with a few simple clicks. My response to this was..... well I made a face like this -_-

"An Xbox360 has better unique games than PS3."
Almost every playworthy Xbox360 game is released on computer since microsoft owns both....... Go for PS3. Resistance is far better than any FPS game microsoft will ever make, and God of War pwns any other fantasy, adventure and RPG games.

"So, how are you destroying the world in this game?" "It's Animal Crossing dad, you can't destroy the world." "Oh...do you deal drugs instead?"
"That Samus, he is so hot! What does he look like without the suit?"- sister said that one.
