Genre elitism might be the dumbest thing I've ever come across. It never fails to amaze me when people try to explain "fun" as an absolute, especially when it comes to the effects of pressing a button or what perspective a game uses.

Oh man I forgot this! Cartoon & Colourful = kiddy. HD, PS360, Xbox/Playstation = Grey, dull shooterboxes.


I think the most annoying version was argument (Not on this site) that M rating means the game is good and E rating means it is crap.

Easily the 720p vs 1080p arguments . At first it was interesting to hear opinions regarding the 720p vs 1080p topic, but now it feels like the VGChartz community is beating a dead horse.  These arguments also create some gigantic quote trees that never get  cut.. -_-

I guess i'll add something myself. Basically threads like these, "Do you pity the Wii U". (http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=179033&page=-1#1) Was first time in a long time i reported something. The OP was just there to troll and nothing more. Basically trying to be Toastboy with gifs. 

Atleast something good came out of thread not being locked. Got gem of a posts like this one. Just amazing http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6100390

The good thing about bad threads and discussion is that i have to come here less and less often.

Mario vs. Knack had never been compared FW. Oh, wait, it had been but Mario was assumed to be on top so it was OK. Now that someone showed Knack on top FW it was not legit and not OK. 

Btw, the thread didn't break any rules. It got locked because one Knack vs. Mario thread spun out of control with angry Nintendo fans and happy Sony fans going at it. 

We could not compare their first week sales until yesterday, and since this is a sales site I decided to add the numbers up and see which game sold more with launches aligned. 

Oh and what am I "mocking" with the PS4 is king thread? Do I not write "happy" enough? It's a silly thread in an attempt to lighten the mood. I should probably get another user to do my next thread due to the automatic personal attacks I get every time I write about something they do not like.

You know full well why the Knack thread was created. Do not play clueless here, please.

You may ask any Mod about the thread, and they all will give you the same low opinion of it and the uselessness of the topic.

Given i think no one argument is as bad, as beating a dead horse. So something that is overabused: like Knack vs SM3DLand and 720p vs 1080p threads.

Really when it comes to the resolution threads, I think a lot of fans should become PC fans.

Given the one that actually managed to piss me off is again the Canadian Prices one.

There is also the reverse version that some people like to use, that anything M is for adolescent boys, which is just straight up ridiculous.

The color thing is something I will never understand.  The color scheme should fit the game.  I don't give a rat's ass if it's bright or if it's dull, as long as it's appropriate.

Mods are biased so of course their opinions are wrong...hey that's another annoying discussions that happens everytime somewhat gets banned.

Oh I actually did see those on Gametrailer forum as well. I totally forgot about that one, but again it was rare to see that one on this site.

Sounds like a pointless argument, we all know it's factual. I'm joking :P
