I see you guys are not fans of my taste in games, eh?

No matter, I was expecting it.

The first was acceptable, even good.
The second... questionable at best.
The last basically earned you the hatred of every member on this website.

You now have ALL of Europe hating you.

Well, at least there are no objections to my favorite film. I'm sure if I had put, like say, The Dark Knight, District 9, Avatar or Watchmen (all films I'd definitely put on my top 10 list), there would have been a few ugly complaints.

That's quit a diverse group of people hating me then.

Sadly, no, I have not. I have yet to play any mod for the PC version of Fallout 3, as my computer sucks hard and is hardly even able to play an emulated version of Sonic 3D Blast.

Pokemon is actually a better RPG than Oblivion/Fallout 3

I assume it's probably the Oblivion part, eh?

See, that's where I begin to question the validity of these opinions. How could a whole collective hate that game? I mean, there must be varying thought on it, right? Logic would dictate so. But it seems to me that there is a hive-mind here.

It's very similar to the world of Metal Gear fans. I consider Metal Gear Solid 4 to be a very good game. Many hardcore fans disagree with me. I'd consider myself to be a hardcore fan too though. On the internet, when one intelligent, hardcore fan begins some topic about MGS4 being bad, the weaker, less intelligent fans follow along, being swayed by the smarts of the OP, who has now become their leader. I believe it has happened here to degrees. Many times, it can be the administrator or a moderator, because being in a seat of power leads others to form a respect for the person. It also could be somebody so full of hate and indignity, coupled with enough intelligence to properly word a passable argument, that people feel they have no choice but to fall in line with them. Thus begins a hive.

Any original thought gaiz?

Some bad details just stand out so stagnantly that they ruin the experience. They soak the entire game with their shitty nature to a degree that it's impossible to look around it.

Wow... it actually took me a while to realize this, and I blame my own incompetencies for that, but why the fuck are you on a Fallout forum if you're hardcore over Pokemon, a medieval series, and a covert espionage series?

He'd fit in at the Codex or NMA. He should leave us and go pester them.

I have diverse tastes. I consider myself mainly an RPG fan, but pretty much anything with a lots of story is cool with me. Some exceptions do exist, like with Devil May Cry and Sonic though. But yeah, I came here because New Vegas news is coming out frequently, and I wanted news. I considered simply lurking (which I know you'd all wish I'd do, or just not even look at this in the first place) but I get roped into debates easily.

On a slightly related note though, it seems I have become the main attraction of this forum! Oh happy day!

Egotistical and stupid. Also a penchant for bad anime - he might turn into the next Smiley.

Leave Connor alone! He's prolly like 15 or something! Also, jesus, I'm almost a decade older than a 15 year old. There aren't words for the feelings one gets when one realizes that they are aging rapidly.

also, the way you guys pick on Connor makes me LOL heartily :evil_laugh:

It'd be a much better excuse if you were.
