Do you find said reply funny? (Yes or No) - Either are acceptable, as it was a pretty good quick response. After reading that, I contacted a few people, and those 8 year olds at the track are going to find out just how deadly banna peels are.

Do you find said response accurate? (Yes or No) - Most would learn towards no, but honestly, who cares? Miyamoto clearly leans towards nonsensical fantasy cartoony violence, whereas Jaffe does not, and when one questions the other, he was pointing that out. Miyamoto says - Why realish violence, Jaffe says - Why cartoony violence?

And we're done. There are some who agree with either side.

 your comment is making you seem more like an "asshole"

Jaffe is one of the top deveopers in the world. To denounce his games, which there has been a ton of them, jsut shows you are an ignorant fanboy. Jaffe acts like a normal person, like game devs should.

Its the same thing as for why there is a reason why Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, wears sweat pants to his business meetings most of the time. He knows he is a average guy who made good business decisions and doesnt hold him self above others. 

 your question is completely off as if you look at Jaffe's game developemnt history I would say that Calling all Car, Mickey Mania, and a few others are quite cartoony. 

I support both sides. Miyamoto is right in questioning that and not a hypocrite for making that comment because guns don't equate to banana peels and shells. What he's questioning is the absurdity that is overlaid with a mature theme, whereas mario kart is absurdity overlaid with a silly carefree theme.

On the other side of things though, I think that comeback Jaffe made is totally warranted and accurate. It's no more absurd than anything else out there already. Jaffe's only issue is that he focused on what Miyamoto literally said instead of the underlying problem that he was pointing out, but it was still a hilarious comment nonetheless.

 they were amking a Twisted Metal ripoff apparently.

Hey, chill out. I didn't insult anyone on these forums, least of all you, so please don't be so quick to make posts like the one above, especially with your mod status.

At any rate, I believe that being in the public eye entitles one to a certain standard of professional conduct - and that includes not outright insulting your colleagues. All I'm saying is that Jaffe needs to learn to hold his tongue.

looking at the Miyamoto article from retro-studios all he asked was why were they making the game (the car combat game), and the guy they were talking to didn't know why they were making it,
So Miyamoto questions a team under nintendo why they are making a generic twisted metal knock off, years ago mind you, and it is some how pertenant to Jaffe today?
Jaffe's comment just seems to be witty response to a stupid question that didn't really do anything excpet quickly kill that line of discussion,
the interviewer basically asked a worthless idiotic question
and looking back at the retro interview, the guy they were interviewing makes a very good point
Pacini, "I realized that this was a major problem. Because if you can’t take criticism of your game ideas, you’re in real trouble.”
basically Miyamoto wasn't going to waste Nintendo's resources on a studio if they didn't even know why they were making the game,
the comment had nothing to do with twisted metal
it had nothing to do with Jaffe,
and it had no reason to be brought up in an interview about twisted metal with Jaffe

One of the top developers in the world? That seems a bit drastic.

He's made the God of War Series, Great. Twisted Metal Series - Mediocre. Mickey Mania on the SNES - horrible.

Unless i'm missing something else, he needs a lot more work in the pipes before you start putting him anywhere near the top.

Good.  Has potential.

But great?  Really?

Let alone one of the best?
