Steve Jobs Voted Most Influential Man in Video Games, Igniting a Firestorm of Complaints - Polidicks

This is like Justin Beiber being voted the best singer in the world

I think I just shat myself with pure rage [editline]5th November 2011[/editline] yup

[QUOTE=Jetpack Bear;33140748]This is like Justin Beiber being voted the best singer in the world[/QUOTE] Hey, at least Beiber is actually involved in the music industry.

[QUOTE=Zard;33134938]What the fuck are you talking about, there were loads of games for mac before valve 'stepped in'.. And valve? They'd only be there for steam, which is a means of downloading games, the iPhone/iPad has the app store which is a way of downloading games onto a portable device.. Gabe Newell is a businessman just like Steve Jobs is, he gets a lot of praise for the way he treats Valve fans but that's just the way he does things, Valve is nowhere near as big as apple is, the sales and stuff they put on aren't for the customers sake it's so that they make more money..[/QUOTE] I agree, valve is obviously only there for steam, which is totally why they released the orange box as retail and literally made millions. And you're right, valve gets a lot of praise for how they treat their customers but that's just the way they do things. Just like how steve jobs gets a lot of shit for how they make their computers and treat their customers like crap but that's just the way they do things. And stop with the commas and double periods, holy shit. Someone doesn't know how to be a hipster.

Im guessing that if Gabe died, he probably would have won it hands down :\

[QUOTE=aaron1490;33142098]Im guessing that if Gabe died, he probably would have won it hands down :\[/QUOTE]of course not, he'd be forgotten and ignored

Wait, wait, wait... I assume Jobs got rated so high because, as the head of Apple, he was indirectly responsible for the iPhone gaming boom. But why is Bill Gates not even ranked on the list? As head of Microsoft, he should at least be indirectly responsible for the Xbox. Remember, the Xbox had Halo, the first FPS game.

i think treyarch should get it because cod was the first fps game

[QUOTE=Fatal-Error;33138709]Windows on mac seems pretty shit, the thing hangs every other second.[/QUOTE] By something like Vmware it's extremely slow but I've found using boot camp it runs pretty well

Fuck lol those 1000 people must be retarded

[url]http://tomfulp.newgrounds.com/[/url] dununununun. He should receive a mention if Steve Jobs won the title.

[QUOTE=Soleeedus;33142387]Ok, good. I was about to kill an innocent bystander.[/QUOTE]He made it really obvious he was appealing to their logic

[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;33138186]Most of FP already does that in their basements[/QUOTE] I don't even have a basement.

[QUOTE=OwnedByTheDog;33142425]i think treyarch should get it because cod was the first fps game[/QUOTE]not it was halo stfu

well it was doom that introduced all the 1337 ~headshots~.

I am almost speechless at the stupidity of these voters.

[QUOTE=Elecbullet;33128031]26% is not a majority. It's a winning number but it'd have to be >50% to be a majority.[/QUOTE] Technically for it to be a clear majority it has to be more then 60% of the vote.

[QUOTE=Fort83;33136100]I love how mad people get when i said I love my mac and use it for school and music, like i'm so evil person. My mac is solely for school and music, I have a PC for the gaming. I like the mac, and if you don't like it. Don't buy it, but seriously fuck you, It works well for me, and that's all that matters.[/QUOTE] Well you're a fucking retard using a computer explicitly for at most, a text editor, spreadsheet and calculator and iTunes when you have a perfectly good PC laying around.

[QUOTE=Xenomoose;33144488]What the fuck did you say? Seriously, I can't read shit, cap'n![/QUOTE] Hehe, here's the translation: No fuck you guys! Halo and CoD weren't the first FPS game! Everyone knows that Modern Combat 2 from best game developer Gameloft for best gaming console iPhone is the first FPS game! Steve Jobs is the most influential person on the planet! Sorry for the grammar, it was a direct "translation"

What the fuck? Gabe Newell? John Carmack? Sid Meier? Even so what about: Todd Howard? Peter Molynuex? Hell even Markus Persson can be featured above Jobs! They all have had more influence on the industry then Jobs! How the fuck did they even make any association that he is in any way shape or form linked to games except that shitty Apple Pippin thing?

To be honest, I can see the angle they're coming from. What with hand held mobile gaming making a surge in popularity with the iPhone/iPod touch. But really, this is retarded.

Mark Zukenberk.... WHAT

What the fuck?
