...doesn't mean that they are out to "get" the Xbox360 (or PS3 for that matter) or decry it for lack of originality. Many of us are very excited about the possibilities of the Wii. It may very well turn out to be a big, fat turkey. BUT, most importantly, we are not dimissing the 360 or PS3 so stop acting as if every thread about the Wii is a personal attack on your manhood. It's getting very boring and pushing many threads off topic. We get it already. You don't like the Wii. Now will you piss off? |
albundy, Just because people like the Wii concept...

No, I enjoy the discussion on this forum and have for many years but albundy's post have, in recent weeks, started derailing potentially interesting threads. He seems to have a constant fear that the general Eurogamer masses are belittling the Xbox360 when we talk excitedly about the Wii.
I was trying to point out in simple language that it is possible to appreciate what Nintendo is trying to do with the Wii AND what the other consoles are doing too with your head exploding. -

Not sure if you know or not, but he's been warned by the mod to curb his behaviour. Who said you had to tolerate it? I just think threads like this which draw the attention to him - and in effect also give a wider audience to his posts (which is not what you want) are a bad idea.

If his posting style (look at the Spore thread and please tell me you want someone like that to be a regular here) becomes tolerated and the norm, will the last forumite out please switch off the light?

No essay. I'll just say that the litany of "Xbox 360 and PS3 = generic, Nintendo = fun and innovative" comments will always spur me on to provide an alternative viewpoint. Stop making them, and I'll quit yabbering. The end.
But al, you are posting ranting comments in Wii threads where no mention of the 360 or PS3 is made. -

I think you're an attention whore and a troll, which is why I wish people would stop the proverbial "troll feeding". -

Believe me, the minute you all shut up saying how bad the Xbox 360 is, and how I'm a moron for possibly liking it, and that only Nintendo cater for the more intellectually-minded among us, then I cease to care about whether or not you're excited about the Wii.
Just because you're on a mission against some people who are as much blinkered fanboys as you are one, you're starting to drag the whole forum down by spamming. Great.

Fuck it though. I'm starting to take things a little too seriously as well now.

Well I was thinking of the Spore thread in which you wrote:
albundy wrote:
Is this that innovative Xbox 360 exclusive game from Will Wright?
Wait, no, can't be. It's on the Wii, is it not? Cause only on the Wii will we see innovation.
Come to think of it, Table Tennis, Dead Rising, Viva Pinata, Geometry Wars, etc, etc, etc. None of them are really on the Xbox 360 at all. They're all on the Wii.
But even in the thread about whether Nintendo should stop making consoles and become a publisher your posting has helped turn it into yet another "Console War" thread. It's fucking boring. -
