(I Don't want a camera in my DS! And it should be hihgher resolution, because i intend to use it all the time!)

gaddamned gamers.

I'm a gamer, and i dissaprove of your stereotyping.

1) i could care less about graphics, if the game is fun thats all that matters.
2) I dont care what they release and what it does or what it's for. If i dont want it, then i wont buy it.
3) VC games are AWESOME, my god i sat down and played NES Punchout for a few hours last night....ahh....memories. (AND YES....Mr.Dream TKO'd me in about 30 seconds)

Hating whatever the majority likes is just another way of letting the majority do your thinking for you. If you really wanna look past the hype. Try playing the game and giving it a fair chance before you pass absolute final judgement on it. Also, people have different tastes, so a game that's mediocre to you can be awesome to someone else.

I've played and beaten all 3 halos a few times, actually i own them....i even waited in line outside in the cold to get a collectors of 3 (NOT Legendary, my GOD that thing was expensive!) They are good games no doubt, but far from the "One Game to Rule them AAAALLL!"(anyone get that? ANYONE? no? T_T) game that a lot of its fanboys make it out to be. At it's core it is very much like many other shooters, and actually takes a lot from the original Half-Life (something thats hard to NOT do though, because that game pretty much set the standard for how FPS's are today. Before HL1 came out FPS's had minimal if any story).

GTA is much the same way. It's a fun game, but it gets old fast. At least if you play the game it was meant to be played. ME?! I do whatever the hell i can to break the game XD that usually ends up in some nice "WTF just happened" moments (and the discovery of many of Rockstars easter eggs they love to put in the GTS's)

I want to reiterate what i said in that post linked above: There are different types of gamers.

-Casual who just play whenever for leasure and don't think too much into it.
-Standard who find a good balance between gaming and the outside world.
-Hardcore who have no clue what the sun looks like.
And for the last one im gonna rephrase it a bit to be:
-Game ENTHUSIAST someone who simply likes games for more than just playing them, but for what they are, the story's they tell, the emotions some can bring. All video games are created equal until they have played them. (ie: dont jump to conclusions).


I would consider myself somewhere between STANDARD and ENTHUSIAST. I'm not the kind of person you will find spending every waking moment looking into every little detail of the games i play. But i will find something that perks my interests and look further into it. (Hell i've played every WarCraft game since the DoS era and im still discovering stuff thanks to wowwiki o.O i usually just look up one thing, and it links into another, which links to another GAAAAAAH damn wiki's!)
