Farmville is beating Valve at The Escapist

[jlj1]

If Valve loses to those shitty social network games, I will die inside and burn every teenage girls laptop.

[QUOTE=Leg of Doom;21117224]Farmville deserve to win about 1 million more people know about farmville than half life or any other valve game.

face the facts nerds.[/QUOTE]

So you're saying that Twilight is better than for example Citizen Kane because more people know about Twilight?

Yeah, Valve versus Zynga.

wait shit

[DANKA]

Well,
Escapist is worth shit in the gaming world. People go there for Yahtzee.
I'd be suprised if Kotaku even noticed this.
Also, Farmville may be an abomination of mankind.

Valve should win, not a shitty flash game

If you don't care about the escapist you shouldn't care what happens there
If some random website declared HL2 was shit but no one cares about it would it matter to you or do you think valve cannot be disputed

Wow do you not understand the basic conventions of a popularity contest this is not about which is 'better' The most popular will win and farmville is far more popular than any valve game.

I do know that this ended up as a popularity contest, but the point is that it's kind of supposed to be a "which is better" contest.

All of these kind of votes are just popularity contests
If it's voting it's a popularity contest always

[Skelosk]

lol zynga
might as well compare a Lada with a Charger

[d_cover]

I hate their games. When I'm on facebook getting shitty invites to play that crap. I say play a real mans game "Valve 4 life"

I want Gordon's babies :smug:

I was right!

[~ZOMG]

[B]That is mother fucked up.[/B]

[Chance]

I do like the games on facebook but valve is much better fuck zynga.

[PunchedInFac]

The difference is, Zynga will not go down in history for revolutionizing gaming. No matter how many votes are made Valve is the company that is critically acclaimed and the Company that won many, MANY awards in the field of game design..

They also made kickass engine that is still relevant years after release.\

Probably /thread.

[QUOTE=Metanoia;21112592]I came up with some pseudocode for an award winning game

import ad // sweet advertising deal! we gunna b rich dawg
int yourLevel = 1
int moneySpent = 0
int requiredTimeWasted = 5000
if moneySpent > 0 then requiredTimeWasted =- 3000
bool enoughStuffClicked = false
function think:
  ad.Rotate()
  ad.Display() //money in the bank, son!!11
  timeWasted++
  processStuffClicked()
function processStuffClicked:
  if stuffHasBeenClicked:
    ad.Rotate()
    ad.Display() //money in the bank, son!!11
    stuffClicked++
    if stuffClicked >= 1000 then enoughStuffClicked = true
    if enoughStuffClicked && timeWasted >= requiredTimeWasted then:
      yourLevel++ 
      requiredTimeWasted = 5000
      enoughStuffClicked = false
    
    end
  end

[I]Can you make it to the top level?[/I]

I'm a genius! All this needs is a graphic designer to make it appropriately themed for the masses, with pictures of farm animals or something. Zynga, your next top employee is waiting in the wings![/QUOTE]

There man I fixed your code up a bit. Now it's suitable.
