Forums - Nintendo - IGN podcast hating on Mario Kart!

kingofwale on 24 February 2008

okay, the title is a bit extreme, It's not exactly 'hating', but I'm sure Nintendo fans will be screaming that in no time.

 

In Game Scoop! Podcast Episode 69 (I'm currently listening to it) about 14:24 into it

Let me summarize it for you

*One podcaster claimed (repeated himself twice) that the game is not very pretty

*same podcaster said the game feels like Nintendo's B team worked on it. 

*Another podcaster replied with "OUCH" 

 

I'm by no mean a Nintendo fanboy, but even i think that's a little too harsh, talking about a game's graphics before it's even beta?

Good old "professional" IGN



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

these are the same people who were saying brawl wasn't a good game

To quote a PS3 fanboy in Legend 11's thread, with the names switched over.

"And you didn't get any enjoyment out of posting that did you KingofWale?"



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

GameScoop! are the one's who disliked Brawl, and so I don't trust their judgment.

Not that I'm defending them but they are paid to critique things.



"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

I'm not sure, I don't listen to Wiik. But one of them doesn't even know Mario Kart comes with the plastic wheel packed in. lol

 False.  They are paid to get views and clicks on their site.  They are the media.  We would all hope these guys would have some respect for themselves and the industry, but of course their job is to get as many views and looks as possible.
