"Nintendo gets a free pass"

I hear this a lot but considering this is by far the worst selling generation they have ever had for both the console and handheld, I don't see how this statement could possibly be true.

"Niche" and "AAA"

Who gives a rats ass if a game doesn't appeal to everyone or didn't cost $100 million to make? If the people who like that type of game think it's great, then awesome.

The phrase "next gen" is finally for the most part dead. Nothing ever could possibly annoy more than those meaningless words.

I'm not gonna lie, I oftentimes still deliberately say "next gen" instead of "current gen" just to piss people like you off. It's a more subtle form of mindgame trolling for me. I do this kind of stuff a lot with the way I structure threads and posts to really get under the skin of people in a way that doesn't break any rules. Makes me feel like an evil genious.

One example of this kind of tactic is that often times, especially when I'm debating someone and I can tell they're getting aggrivated, I use a lot of italics to what I'm writing because it makes the whole post look more pretentious than it is hehe. Another example is my avatar making me look like a bully. Another is my signature making me look like smart ass.

But yeah, I don't really see anything wrong with still saying next gen. Especially when there haven't been many real next-gen experiences yet. I don't feel like you're truly into the new generation until games are being made that wasn't possible/being made in the prior generation regularly. This gen so far just feels like last generation but with better graphics. The first next gen game for me is MGSV, because a locked 60fps in a complex open world just wasn't possible last gen. And even there, it's obviously not going to stick, as people actually think it doesn't look good.

Indie games don't count because reason

Souls games are niche (and don't count)

Japanese games don't count because reason

consoles are doomed (because ps4 is on the track to the ps2)

double a games don't count because reason

phil spencer the saviour of xbox (no he really wasn't, but great dude nonetheless)

triple a games also don't count if they don't have a metacritic of 90 or more (man what games are gamer even playing)

VR is going to flop and is shit (did you already used it? No ..... facepalm)

Guy makes thread uses hey watch this video ..... the video is about drugshitgamer or shitdragondrugsgamer.

On I forgot one. Complete incomprehension of what PSNow is, which happens 99% of the times someone posts about it. Hey, if you have a copy of "X PS3 game" PS now isn't there to allow you to play that game on ps4, yoiu have the damn game already, it's there so that people who don't have a copy of "X PS3" game can stream it to any of the supported devices (be it PS4 or not) without having to buy the game for PS3. It can even be better value than "free BC" (though it shouldn't be compared with BC to begin with cause that's not what it is), if I sub a month for 13 pounds and finish 5 games.. That's 2 and a half pounds per game. How much would it cost to actually go out and buy them to play on PS3 (or imaginary PS4 with BC)? Yeah.

Handhelds are obsolete
Smartphones and Handhelds are not the same market
Handhelds can not compete with Smartphones
Consoles and Handhelds should be gaming only devices
I have a Smartphone/PC/Other device for non gaming needs
Stop wasting money expanding the userbase, and make more games

Basically fed up with people mad about no support for consoles and handhelds, then turning around and blacklisting any additional services, and/or devices that would help build bigger userbases. Basically, I am sick of seeing things like what has happened/ is happening to the 3G Vita and the Xbox One. I wish gamers would welcome new functions with open arms, and help promote them the same way Apple and Google fans have, as opposed to complaining about them, and giving them a bad name.

Yeah, but that's just the few. The days where it was being passed around like a valid point from every site and forum is gone, and the gaming community is better for it.

Any phrase that's positive towards MS/Xbox

Any phrase that's negative towards Sony/Playstation

Any phrase about Nintendo in general

Phrases about the Ouya, leave the damn thing alone.

"I think I speak for most Nintendo fans when I say we're fed up of you downplaying Splatoon."
