Remember how people can use ironic, rhetorical questions?

It was actually pretty successful but that doesn't mean it was good.

Nope. Just a blatant Wii copy.

Also I didn't read all of his post so I only got the bit when he said the PSMove was successful.

You need to stop.

The Wii was backwards compatible with Gamecube games, but oh! The PS2 did that first! And hey...didn't The PS1 use discs first (ignoring the PC, which did just about everything first)? And memory cards? If memory serves, the PS1 had the first wireless/IR controllers (You can buy aftermarket SNES ones nowadays, but Sony was first!). Nintendo has been barking up the motion controller tree for years, failing miserably at it over and over again. Finally, the wii pops out, yeah it's cool and all (Mine bored the shit out of me within the 1st year, a common experience from my understanding) BUT with lots of good marketing they made it a market requirement to have some higgledy piggledy motion sensor strapped to the console. Not to mention the superior capabilities in Sound Quality that all Sony products are blessed with. If you're going to harp on unoriginality and blatant copying, I'm not sure why you can't acknowledge that the finger breaks the other way, too. You're looking at these companies like everything is an exclusive original creative property, like business is not business. Would you have preferred Sony simply said 'Nah, we better not try to compete in this market, looks like Nintendo got here first with their stupid wand.

All of this 'bloo bloo bloo Sony copied everything!' garbage is the same stupid shit I was saying when I was your age having almost the exact same discussion on some distant, long-forgotten forum. Now just shut up about fucking Corporate Originality (pardon me while I bite my nose off for typing those words) and speculate on whether Tiny Tank, BATTLETANX or WDL: ThunderTanks are going to make a cameo appearance.

Tanks are what games nowadays really need.

I just don't want to play it because I don't care about the characters at all. I agree with what the meat said.

Mac Sirloin · #36 05-07-2012, 10:59 AM

And I hate talking about video games, too.

Mr. Bungle · #37 05-07-2012, 12:31 PM

I wanna play as Captain Quark.

Apparently World of Tanks is rather popular.

then why'd you join a forum based around oddworld?

Dynamithix · #40 05-08-2012, 12:40 AM

Wait what, Oddworld is a game?

Ridg3 · #41 05-08-2012, 12:45 AM

Is Oddworld not some lesser known cult found in the deep, dark bowels of the internet?

what?
isn't it a board game?

Varrok · #43 05-08-2012, 09:00 AM

I like Oddworld, it's quite tasty. Ate it on breakfast

Jesus christ

I didn't say Sony has copied EVERYTHING Nintendo has.

Yeah...looking back at my post, I was wrong to say that the PSMove is a rip so I'm sorry. It's a real immature look at it which makes me sound like a pathetic fanboy.

It's just I've always had a negative attitude towards Sony and Microsoft for using Nintendo's ideas. The PSmove especially because it's very similar to the Wii-mote aside from that ball...thing. I was actually more pissed off with Microsoft when they revealed the Kinect calling it "unique". Hello! Anyone remember the Eyetoy for the Playstation 2?

Looking at it from a mature view. Hardware wise. It's not really copying. A company invents something for gaming and the other companies just adopts it in there own way.

When it comes to games...Yes the same thing applies but in this situation, This game is just a rip. Everyone can see it. Yet i'm still going to play it when it's out

Also remind me never to piss you off again, Mac.

In my mind, all the PS1 games I had as a kid were classic masterpeices that everyone has heard of.

I love that game, but I found it way too difficult, I'm sure if I gave it another try now though I'd find it much easier.

Mac Sirloin · #46 05-08-2012, 08:13 PM

That post wasn't supposed to be directed at you specifically, Crash, I just quoted you only and forgot about it. And we all know if I'd been pissed off there would have been about 3 dozen percent more swearing per capita in that post if I had and I would have bitten off the heads of every poster in the thread.

Because I'm, y'know, reasonable.

Hazel-Rah · #47 05-08-2012, 10:38 PM

I'd kill for Earthworm Jim to make another appearance in a fighting game, he would kick any modern video game character's ass...

Holy shit am I old...

xXxrenhoekxXx · #48 05-09-2012, 01:45 AM

well if sony can do what brawl did and get a whatever company made earth worm jim
yeah it could happen.

Mac Sirloin · #49 05-09-2012, 09:03 PM

I think Doug Tennapel, the original creator of the Earthworm Jim character, currently holds the rights, and unless Jesus can be a playable character too we probably won't be seeing EWJ in this.

But we can dream.
