I've never been afraid of being banned.  Have never edited a post in fear of bing banned.  You know why?  Because I try my best to treat people respectfully, even when disagreeing or calling them out.

If someone is afraid of being banned, then its probably because they like to start trouble.



@darth tigris  I agree but I have seen people here banned for stuff that I thought was not even serious, hell ive been banned for saying i thought the Wiiseries of games were not good.

To be honest, this thread has been most fun I've had on here in a long time.  It's just been a blast to watch how everything has played out.

EDIT:  And, for the record, this is NOT a slam or a flame, but if you're a PS3 fan I could see things being a bit boring, especially after all of the excitement of last year.  Neither Move or GT5 has spiked PS3 sales in meaningful ways and there are really no more long awaited exclusives to debut on the console anymore (unless you're looking forward to PlayStation Move Heroes, but that's not all that high profile).  Maybe that'll change as PSP Phone and PSP2 info comes out, though.

Lol?What are you talking about?There are lots of very popular exclusives announced,coming to the PS3,more then on any other system.

@ OP: The site has become less exciting for me as well,mainly because of the often adjustments...just don't know what to believe anymore.

Noticed I said 'long awaited exclusives'?  Probably not from your response, but I did say that for a reason.  GT5 was the last huge one.  TLG is not going to ignite sales, though it'll likely be a great experience.

Also, haven't adjustments ALWAYS happened on this site?  Some far more massive than what we saw back in October?  Why is it such an issue now?

@ Bolded 1. Yeah I noticed that,TLG may not spike sales so much,but that doesn't mean it's not a long awaited exclusive,for example,GT5 was the most awaited one,but did it do much for the PS3?Not really.

Twisted Metal is yet another long awaited exclusive in my eyes,same goes with LBP2 and Socom 4.If you think otherwise,well,that's just your opinion,not even sure if you have a PS3?Probably not.

@ Bolded 2. Noticed I said often?I said that for a reason,adjustments are more often now,and bigger than they were in the past,there are sources that claim other numbers,and all that stuff,I just don't know what to believe anymore,that's what I'm saying...



I'm actually sad that the Game Of The Year post has just ~3500 views. That's ridiculously low compared to older ones. Really a shame.

Not really, i can't recommend anything to anyone because it will usually end up in a ban because i was off topic. Or i cant speak my mind in a "this game is awesome" thread. I can see how some people would limit what they say to refrain from a ban.



And I thought I was the only one feeling this way. I hope the forums will recover soon

For me it happened the game I was cheering on and though should win something hasn't even nominated in any website, and that just pissed me off, I'm not going to look on another thread about this just to be disapointed again.



Above: still the best game of the year.

Psh, obviously it was because you called them a series... they are not a series. A franchise yes, series no.

 



It has been pretty slow news-wise, and there aren't really any more good discussions going on.

In fact, "discussions" these days are becoming nothing but predictable fanboy wars, and at the end of the day, all they're doing is beating a dead horse (list wars, spinning sales, etc.). It's getting so boring.

Edit: @Darth Tigris, I quoted you, but I misread your comment, so apologies.
