A lot of people don't know how Carl2291 got his number. It refers to hiis STD count.

Boutros' hype meter uses the term "excited" in an interesting sense.

Psrock's avatar shows the miracles of photoshop: it's a self-portrait. He doesn't look anywhere near that masculine in real life.

Meh, I just looked at the posters above me. Interesting stuff:

Half-Life 2 is the most unbearably pretentious game in existence. You would need some sort of brain disorder to enjoy everything past the first few hours, which does not bode well for humanity.

Kinect is a piece of shit. Seriously. It has functionality one step above the fucking EyeToy, a profound lack of any decent games, save Dance Central, the most patronising advertising I have ever seen outside of Orange commercials, and it's only selling because Microsoft are throwing all of their money at it. If I had £120 to waste, I would buy a Kinect and destroy it with a sledgehammer. Seriously.

All console FPS are casual games. You think you're so high and mighty with your auto-aim and regenerating health and checkpoints every ten metres, and you're somehow superior to wimpy casual games like Mario that have limited lives, and in which you die if you touch a fucking mushroom. I don't hate all console FPS. I just acknowledge that they're not "hardcore" in any reasonable sense of the word.

Kane and Lynch 2. Just what the hell is that? I feel an extraordinary temptation to destroy my copy and burn down the development studio.

The PS1. Yes, it was fun in the 90s. But it's crap now. You can't control the camera properly, because no developer knew how to use analog sticks. The games look like ass. The gameplay is extraordinarily simplistic. Everything seems to be designed to be as irritating as humanly possible. To even consider it up there with the SNES, N64 and PS2, the giants that have stood up and remain playable to this day, is ludicrous.

I'll think of more later. I love ranting.

He doesn't but damn does that donkey have some tricks, Carl doesn't like them too much, but it's like a train wreck people can't look away and as being their pimp I charge those gawkers, it's the only way he can afford games.

if it wasnt for the fact i would get a warning for saying that outside of this thread i would quote that into my sig as well xD

How/When did you save our asses exactly?

ALL MMOs are complete shit. They are a BS excuse for developers to put zero effort into a game and just let everyone fight each other, pay them every month, and roll around in their money. Fortunately, they usually fail miserably and the developers get screwed for being too lazy to develop in a real genre. The exception is WoW, but only because it hasn't failed. The other stuff is still true. Also, it looks ten years old.

Also, if you make an indie game, you have no right to charge a high price for it. World of Goo is £15 worth of stacking blobs. It's fun for a bit. Then it's just really, really boring. Guess what? Braid is cheaper than you. Trine is cheaper than you. They're also both far superior games, because they're not so full of themselves. I would like to personally high-five everyone who pirated that game for not supporting the most arrogant developers on the planet.

Driving around in circles is not fun. Pushing buttons to drive around in circles is worse. If that sort of laziness was accepted in other genres, you would have an FPS in which you shot one enemy over and over again using different guns, in different settings. And people would like this, marvelling at the intricate detail on the gun. You would have an RPG with thousands of weapons and settings, in which you couldn't do anything except jump.

Quote it. Say you have my consent... I don't mind having a laugh, but oversensitive mods like Maxwell might get a little bit angry.

Lol i will then XD

You should remember that we gave you Hugh Laurie and you proceeded to abduct him and eat his soul.

I just want you to know, if VGC had a "Like" button... I would use it on this.

it was all in the plan,

when we found china and india we thought fuck me we are going to need alot of reinforcements
