| Kenryoku_Maxis said: In some ways, I kind of wish the game would just win an oscar. It would just show how pointless the whole thing is and how they're just handing out oscars to only the most hyped and flashy movies (and as a result games) out there. Not anything that deserves actual merit. IE: Every single 'Animation' Award going to a CGI film and every 'Best Picture' film going to the most hyped and advertised movie of the year. |
Sprited Away got the animation Oscar, so there it something.
As for the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum comment, you didn'gt read my comment properly. My comment was that even though it's a bunch of people's opinions that Batman & Robin is crap and The Godfather is awesome, it is their opinions. That people have an opionion is an objective fact, and Heavy Rain does not objectively meet the standards of anywhere near The Godfather. Although it seems most of the comments here agree with that, so as I stated in the first part of the OP, you people aren't who I am calling out.
BTW, in case anyone wants to bring up me not having a PS3, I've stated before I would get one, just I can't afford it right now, and so far it's just Disgaea 3 and the Ratchet & Clank games that interest me the most.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
