person raises what they feel are legitimate greivances with a game in their review. Gets shot to pieces by fans who are too involved with their company of choice.

I hate the gaming community sometimes.

/sarcasm off



 

Eurogamer used the same caption on their review ("Water, water everywhere").

This doesn't make sense without Buzz Lightyear. Nintendo memefailed.

This Forum Has Too Much Water - 7.8 Out Of Ten. 

No but in all seriousness , ripping on the shittiest journalism site of the most profoundedly incompetent journalism industry (IGN/Gaming Journalism) is arguably not even trolling. This is due to the fact that it is so plantantly obvious that they're extremely incompetent and the laughingstock of gaming journalism. 

Say what you want, but quoting or hinting at something stupid once said is arguably not even trolling. 

eg. “Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”- George W. Bush 

Quoting the absurd stupidity from George W. Bush isn't trolling, it's just stating that he is a complete and utter fucking dumbshit c*** who couldn't pass a grade two spelling contest to save his life.



Wow they even used that Toy Story meme to go with this.



Proud to be a Californian.

In response to the oddly out of play Bush jab I'll leave this here: http://keithhennessey.com/2013/04/24/smarter/ 
(Hint: Bush isn't as dumb as you think, likely just has different views than you. Obama isn't a crazy communist devil either for that matter)

 

On topic I say Kudos to IGN and this reviewer, she did her job - which is not to accurately review anything, it is to generate traffic to their site which she has achieved likely in spades.

Firstly the 'Bush Jab' was an example to show that Nintendo weren't trolling, but rather stating the obvious. (Also I might have been a bit harsh on Bush, but  when you take into account that he once led the worlds only superpower, you have to admit he was 'below average' at best).

Secondly I don't live in the states ( I live in Australia and I'm getting around to putting that on my profile) so the assumption that I am pro Obama is irrelevent (but not your fault for assuming so). 

While she did technically do her job, she didn't do it to the standared the gaming community expects. Furthermore, there aren't even that many water pokemon types (just about a third more then the runner up), which also makes complete sense given the circumstances of the game. (and doesn't effect battles to such a large degree to make the game unjoyable), So in the majorities opinion she gave a miscalculated and innacurate final score. 

P.S. I checked your link, but the page was missing :/
