    Default Controversial game statements you stand by

    Post your controversial game statements. It can be any personal view you have regarding games/systems that most purists or retro gamers would consider heresy or blasphemy.

    I'll go first:

    Metroid and Dragon Warrior for the NES are a bunch of tedious crap. Boring, uninspiring, and downright pathetic. Nothing about them makes them playable, and I still don't see what anyone could possible find fun or enjoyable about them.

    Please try NOT to respond to another person's post. Just state your controversial opinion regarding a game/system and move on. Each post should ideally be independent of the others.

    Turn based RPGs suck. FFVII sucks. MMORPGs suck. World of Warcraft sucks. Strategy games suck. Diablo sucks. Modern day FPS games are way over-rated. Halo sucks.

    first person shooters suck. they are all the same, and their only appeal is being a cesspool of humans gathering online for a fap fest…
    Black operations is trash and fps are worse than the annual madden game… these current fps won't be worth the data the use when online service cease…

    Both Playstation and Saturn have better graphics than N64, at least the vast majority of the time.

    The entire Virtua Fighter franchise is overrated.

    There, happy?

    Here, here.

    The Saturn is the best video game system ever made.

    And Turn-based RPGs aren't fun.

    I prefer the Mega Drive sound over the SNES one.

    This is a great idea for a thread. Too bad most of the posts are written negatively.

    As for my controversial game statement, I feel that handheld gaming is much better than consoles, PCs, and arcade games. Why buy a game that you can only play in one place? I love taking my Nintendo DSi to work.

    thanks. It was meant as a thread to post opinions that are controversial in nature, WITHOUT attacking other posts or posters. Each response should really be independent of the others.

    One more: The heyday of megaman consists of megaman1-7 and X-X3. Everything after that doesn't deserve to be associated with the Megaman franchise.

    The Tandy Color Computer is the greatest computer EVER made - then, now, and in the future

    Super Mario games are complete and utter crap - then, now, and in the future

    First Person Shooters are for retarded brain dead moron trailer trash with the IQ of snail semen.

    Nothing I just wrote should be taken as anything but tongue in cheek fun. ( Except the Color Computer thing. I DO mean that )

    Despite the whole red ring thing, the xbox 360 is a better machine than the ps3. The reasons are:
    1) No mandatory installs delaying enjoyment of your new game.
    2) Updates take seconds instead of minutes-hours
    3) Online play is much more stable on the 360
    4) Comparing gamerscores makes much more sense to me than trophies (just me preference in scoring systems.)

    None of these posts are valid unless Simon Cowell says so.
