The mark on the bottom says it all. Crash simply should have perished after Sony let it go. Same thing with Spyro, really.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Shaq-Fu, OMG what a terrible game other than that every game has its place  



I am no good at grammar =) 

DAMN IT! This EP is such a good idea 

I'm having trouble narrowing it down to just one, but if I really had to pick, I would say Street Fighter II. This is the point where fighting-game controls (and to some extent game controls in general) really started to get gratuitously complex. I believe that the impact this has had on gaming has been severe and negative, by encouraging (and in many cases, requiring) some frankly unhealthy play patterns just to master the basics. A lot of people were scared or driven away from gaming because of that, and I believe it can be traced back mostly to the success of this one game.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

Be the ultimate ninja! Play Billy Vs. SNAKEMAN today! Poisson Village welcomes new players.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.

 

Knuckles should not have some piss-poor rap song as his theme.

What do you have against OTAKU??


I don't know what Otaku are but if they're the reason we have X-2 then probably everything.



I'll excuse FFVII as just an expirement but I won't excuse FFVIII.  It's the game that proved to SE that they could release any pile of crap and people would gobble it up.

I think it should have happened though! just happened a hell of a lot better :D

Or I guess not happened.

Edit. Changed my mind, I completely agree.
