Three way tie between

"Ninty magic"
"Innovative"
"Unique"

The misuse of the word "theory" is also annoying. Eg. "I have a very interesting theory about NX". That's not a theory. It's a hypothesis.

theory =/ hypothesis

Well, I've never seen anyone say that. My guess is you're talking about their first party support. Bloodborne was their only excellent game this year.

I hope you played those games before making that claim!!!

I've played Bloodborne yes. Not my cup of tea, but I can see why people love it. It's a well made game with a good atmosphere and art direction.

I'm talking about the other games. Did you play the other games to claim that BB is the only excellent game?

What other games?

NDC? I played some of the original games on the PS3.

GoW 3: R? I played the original game on the PS3.

Until Dawn? It has scare jumps. That's when you know a horror game failed.

"People calling games GOTY based on metacritic scores before they even got a chance to play the game."

Wow, took just two comments for you to ignore your own advice^^

How did I miss this one. The overuse of "Fanboy".

Say something negative about a console and you will more than likely be called a fanboy. Doesn't even matter if you are being constructive or even criticising your console of choice, "Fanboy!"

We literally only know 2 letters and that more will be revealed in 2016. That is it.


That's a lie. Couldn't be further from the truth.

For me, it's "in my opinion/imo." I have not seen one use of that phrase that wasn't completely redundant. Not one.

Sorry for having the opinion that resorting to scare jumps to scare people is a sign of poor story telling, poor atmosphere and the game designers being dicks. Nothing I hate more in games than scare jumps. Second thing I hate is cutscenes that are too long and QTE.

It's not.

Probably all the splatoon threads but they don't seem as bad anymore.
