General Chat / RE: Newbie Check-In ... right this way!

« on: August 26, 2003, 10:41:59 AM »

Even though I was complaining about how everyone had to bitch and moan about how "gcn r not teh onlian!!1"

(paraphrased) "Why does everyone have to act like Nintendo not going online this generation is so bad? They're just seeing if it's a profitable market."

Yhe last line was probably what did it...I said that if someone's going to make an anti-<random system> topic on said random system's general board, then whine and moan when they get flamed by fans of that system, they should not be allowed to breed.

Third post, joined yesterday...

I live in Cleveland, Ohio.

These forums are even better than GameFAQs, because we don't see a bunch of Xbots running around saying "gcn is teh suxx0r becuz it doznt hav a hard driv!!1"

What wonders you can do after saying Crono > Mario...you can get Warned on GameFAQs, and decide that you don't want to be there anymore, since the mods there think a pro-GCN, anti-Xbot topic is trolling when the topic's on the GC General Board...

However the reason I wan't to spread the truth is because of people like the ignorant PIAC.

40-50 million consoles? PLEASE!  That is the single most ignorant thing I have ever heard.  $ony is famous for LYING about how big is suppossed installed base is.  They also like to quote the number of consoles SHIPPED and not SOLD.  There's a BIG difference.  I can see where you get your flawed math from, the $ony Public Relations Dept.

People need to know the truth and here it is.  $ony is only in the lead because of lies and dirty tricks.
They spend the most money on advertising and they practically own the opinions of almost every video game magazine.  They win because they act like a mind control juggernaut.  I can't tell you how many superior Dreamcast games would get dumped on by the critics, only to have a crappy, inferior Ps2 version of the same game show up and it would recieve rave reviews.  PLEASE!

That and their best franchises came from the 3rd parties that got their start on the NES and Super Nes.  They stole their best ideas from the masters and now they are paying for it.  They have nothing of their own.  They couldn't make a good game if they tried.  And now that their best franchises are returning to other systems, they are in BIG trouble. (I.E. Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Madden, Tony Hawk, Mega Man, Castlevania, etc, etc, etc....)

Finally, why complain about this now?  Well because younger gamers desrve to know the truth.  Also, you may not realize this, but $ony is in a crisis point.  NO ONE expects the Ps3 to be No#1 during the next round of video game wars.  They also failed in destroying Nintendo and M$ has gained significant ground on the once untouchable $ony.

I doubt very much that $ony will stay numerber one.  Reminding people that they are a joke who stole their best ideas from someone else only helps to drive home the fact that $ony's day is coming to an end.

ps. Mac sucks anyway

Whoever this guy was replying to got pwned in one hit.

Vote Sephy! (even though I voted for Alucard) He was in a Final Fantasy game, which was once on Nintendo consoles! *insert random rant about why you should vote for Seph*

Now, regarding Mario vs. Crono...

A bunch of votestuffers just jumped in right at the end and voted for Mario. It's like how you proxy on mIRC, except that you're voting for the same person WHILE proxying.

Why do I get the feeling that far too many assumptions are made on these boards?

Jeez, when a character that starred in an SNES game is beating Mario, people always have to run over here and ask you guys to vote for him...

MARIO SUNSHINE IS TEH SUXOR!
