@Torillian
Instead of attacking his character why not try to attack the points he was making.
|
What points? That he hated everything that MS presented? The only thing he even mentions being decent to look at was CoD2. I mean for Christ's sake in all the things MS presented that's all he can bring up in good mention. Then he takes swipes at that Cliffy B guy for how he's dressed. How is that relevent?
Anything he doesn't have mean things to say about he doesn't mention. He didn't say crap about the Halo games other than that they were coming and one pleased the audience while the other was less so. What unprejudiced person would present their thought on the conference in that manner.
I don't have any particular like of MS, and I have no stake in any exclusive they mentioned, but as a reasonable person I have to admit that they had alot of great parts that excited people in their conference. I was talking to Machina as it went on and he really loved the Splinter Cell presentation and Left4Dead 2 announcement. No reasonable person could watch that conference and then write what Malstrom did. If he wrote an article about how the motion control will fail that is fine, but attacking everything that was presented is simply fanboyism.

Torillian, first of all, His whole post was supposed to be his own reaction to Microsoft's conference. So anything that happened during the conference is relevant, no? Futhermore, the guys a blogger, not a journalist. He can say whatever he wants to however he wants to. He has no need to appear "unbiased" (as if someone can't be biased) he's just saying what he truly thinks. So in that sense, he's biased towards his own opinion! A shock I know.
Second of all, the guy didn't mention parts that wouldn't support his argument?? Double shock!

Then that's just poor argumentation. You have to mention things that don't support your argument, a talented debater will be able to show how these points are of less importance or how his arguments outweigh the counter arguments.
