| Rock_on_2008 said: The Americans have a great sense of humour. Countlees of great American comedians of both past and present. GTA IV would of been better if the Americans made it. The best Western based games originate from the USA. WRPG should be ARPG, they are mainly made in America. |
America, FUCK YEAH!
If GTAIV would have been better if Americans made it, why is it that Saint's Row is so shit?
Seriously, I'm not suggesting that Americans couldn't make a game as good as GTA4, just that they haven't. Ever.
In fairness, there is an element of truth to what the guy is saying; American satire does tend to be a bit weak-kneed compared to British, and your comedy is often dumbed down to appeal to the lowest common denominator (compare versions of The Office). That doesn't change the fact that the cleverest and funniest TV show of all time is The Simpsons. I'm pretty sure there is no American equivalent to Chris Morris, though, so it's all just swings and roundabouts.
In any case:
"Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel." - Samuel Johnson (who was English and therefore better than you foreign scum)*
* That was irony. In case you yanks don't know what that means, just go and ask a Canadian, like Alanis Morrisette.**
** That was a double irony, or birony. It's like rain on your wedding day, when the service is being held in a swimming pool.
