Well, when CoD is the best selling game of every year, you have to wonder.

[QUOTE]With the strongly-anticipated Journey on the horizon, thatgamecompany has gone from being simply just another indie studio to torchbearer of the indie movement at large. [/QUOTE] Not quite sure I agree with that. I've never even heard of their company before now, nor of their games.
....Its not that their stupid, its just they have no idea what they are complaining/loving about something.
TGM is really brilliant at making games. Flower is amazing in every way, except maybe length, so personally I can't wait until Journey is released.

Trust me, been playing the BF3 beta for two days now, a LOT of morons in that game. CoD players get called idiots because they enjoy a video game that other people don't enjoy, so instead of leaving well enough alone we insult them for their opinions.
Most gamers are retarded. Its true.

The community is god awful, the company and C.E.O is god awful, and the game is mediocre at best.

Honestly, if someone enjoys Call of Duty, they shouldn't be labelled stupid. If they like the game, then they like it. Simple as that. It doesn't make them stupid.

[QUOTE=ChristopherB;32533932]Not quite sure I agree with that. I've never even heard of their company before now, nor of their games.[/QUOTE] They've made several very successful games on PSN. They're in a locked deal with Sony at the moment so you won't see any of their games on other systems.
Same can be said about TF2 community. A community that is getting excited by every [b]promotional[/b] item that gets brought in, regardless of how useful / clever it is to its class, in which most cases they are not. Yet they drool all over that shit.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;32543588]You just summed up about every console video game ever.[/QUOTE] ....Wow, you're a moron. Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Epic, and Bioware are nothing like that.
gamers are stupid though so whatever
