Wow. Nintendo fanboys are convinced that fans of the HD consoles hate Malstrom because somehow, we're scared of the truth and his all-knowingness. The truth is that we're not blind and we can see how much of a jerk he is, while Nintendo fanboys just gush over everything he says. If anyone's blind, it's you guys. |
Montana the majority of the responses to his article center around how much of a jerk he is. By in large, his points aren't addressed at all. What other impression do you think would be given with that being the case. Malstrom does come off a dick in this article, but saying he is a dick doesn't and nothing else show's that you believe he's right because you can't post a suitable counter argument.
|
It's because no one really cares about his points. At the end of the day, it's the same shtick over and over. You could just replace entire Malstrom articles with "hardcore gamers are dumb," and it will still have about the same value. Most of his detractors in the thread don't feel like arguing his points. I agree with him anyways; "hardcore gamers" are usually idiots. But his condescending style of writing is simply rotten, and it rubs off on his fans. And it shows (e.g. your post).
|
I disagree. Malstrom, dick he may be, has been right the majority of the time. All the "hardcore" gamers whining about his articles and ignoring the points he brings up are just proving his characterizations of them. Call the guy a dick, break down his points, and post a decent counter argument. If you aren't going to do that. Ignore any posts or articles by him and stop giving him so much attention.
|
He's been right about things...doesn't affect what I'm saying at all. You seem to be missing the points of all my posts, and the ones by others. I'll repeat it in capital letters since you guys don't seem to get the point.
WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT HIS POINTS. SOME PEOPLE DO, AND FEEL FREE TO ARGUE WITH HIM. THE REST OF US ARE POINTING OUT THE ABSOLUTE WORSHIP OF A MAN WHO DOES NOTHING BUT POST NEGATIVE ARTICLES ABOUT THE PS3 AND 360 AND THE PEOPLE WHO PLAY THEM. HE'S CONDESCENDING, PRETENTIOUS, AND ROTTEN.
It's like talking to a wall. Whenever we point out how much of a conceited jerk he is, it seems most Nintendo fans just counter by claiming that we can't argue his points. We don't want to; it's just the same drivel over and over. But I'm sick of his articles being posted. They're flamebait half the time, and they're from someone who clearly thinks way too highly of himself. The more attention he gets, the more conceited he becomes. I'd love to ignore his articles if they weren't posted all the time.

Then why do you bother to reply in the first place?
did it perjudice you in some way?
does it offends you?
if you say that you don't care that you hate people "worships" him, then why you are posting such nonsense?
I hate Kaz hirai,. He's waaay much a dick than Malstrom (yesh he may be so?) but i won't go to the sony boards to say he sucks and you are whatever because you love him just because.
That would make me a troll.
JUST LIKE YOU ARE DOING RIGHT NOW.
If you don't have anything constructive to say then get out.

I responded because I was sick of his articles, which are often nothing short of offensive. I have no idea what "perjudice" is supposed to be, but it does offend me. Not because I'm some Wii-hating hardcore gamer, but rather because I hate condescending people, and that's exactly what Malstrom is. Your 4th sentence is a grammatical mess, but I'll make an attempt at it. My posts aren't nonsense whatsoever, at least not nearly as much as your post (which is difficult to comprehend). As for your bit about Kaz Hirai, I don't really care about him. I appreciate his goofiness, but I'm not a big fan of the things he's done for the Playstation brand. If you find an article from Kaz Hirai where he talks about how the PS3 is the best console out there, how the others will die and fail, and how their fans are morons, feel free to flame him. I'll be right there with you. I never started a thread proclaiming that I hate Malstrom, and it wouldn't really be trolling except against people who are fans of his condescension (in which case the person(s) in question are probably just jerks). I have plenty of constructive things to say, but you've never seen me vehemently defending Kaz Hirai or Shane Kim or any other PR for the HD consoles, so the only biased one is you. Please, get out.
