GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Friday, May 2, 2008

Ok, it is no secret to anyone, that the video gaming industry has a habit of throwing us trash. This trash can even be used just to hold us off for a small amount of time, before the next major release is made, which actually turns out to be a bad idea! Throwing us a 'sequel' or 'prequel' game for no reason usually ends up as just bad trash on your doorstep the next day. So, I got a little bit of a suggestion for you *cough*SquareEnix*cough*Guitar Hero*cough* stop giving us these half assed games you stupid assclowns! Just because you slap a well known name onto the front packaging, does not instantly mean you will have a large amount of success to face. Oh hell now, in fact, I can assure you, instead, you'll be slapped with a whole lot of criticism's and just flat out complaints! There have been plenty of offenders of this, and the sad thing is. They get away with it. People actually buy these ten second piles of crap.

Activision has already pulled this over us once. They released Guitar Hero: Rocks the '80's and I only could think," Why the **** are people actually paying $60 for this **** I mean, I hate to call in the mental capacity of my peers and say that a lot of people are slowly succumbing to the duller more dense side of the mental spectrum, but have you all gone ****ing retarded! Seriously, you are aware they could have just made all of these songs downloadable on Guitar Hero III right? I mean, they had the license, so you could have got this **** for a hell of a lot cheaper. Of course people didn't think about it when they rushed to get down their pre orders. Then when they skipped home with their shiny new game, they discovered that their sorry asses got ****ing ripped off royally. Thankfully the good people who worked as reviewers noticed," Hey, Activision is robbing us blind!" and pretty much blammed the **** on sight. Now, must I point out that Activision is up to it again? I'm sure that plenty of you have noticed the new Aerosmith edition of Guitar Hero will be launching soon. Personally the second I heard it I tasted something foul in my mouth. Take one part successful game series and another part uber famous classic rock band Aerosmith, and what do we get, another recycled piece of ****ing trash game, hoping to ride the skirts of success of both its parent ingredients. So, save us the trouble you greedy bastards, just give this stuff to us as DLC then go have fun raping some poor bay donkey in its sleep... ****bags...

Now, who else shall I throw into this little spew pot of craptacular idiots who manage to befuddle our poor gaming minds with this particular brand of grade A bull****? Of wait, that's write, everyone's favorite RPG hit factory (Hahaha, I got jokes) Square Enix. Now, let's not lie to ourselves, Square may be a very well known company in the industry, but how many times have they produced a game that was pure bull****? How many people actually believed they wouldn't pull the crap game move with the Final Fantasy series? It has happened more than a few times now. Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus, Final Fantasy X-2 (I hate to even acknowledge this games existence), Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles (And all its spin offs), Final Fantasy XI (Trying to ride the online thing...Dumb ****s), Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings. Now I know, most people will say that some of these games were descent, but you know what? I really don't give two bald eagle's asses what the **** you or the reviewers say. It's just another example of how you can slap a good title onto a game and people will buy it, like it and probably somehow manage to rape it. I mean, seriously, look how long they have been riding the VII wave of success. It's actually kind of sickening how they get away with this kind of bull****.

Know who else is actually considered ****ing stupid in my opinion? Tecmo, yeah, I'm sure you all know what I am talking about. Ninja Gaiden seriously, 3 ****ing games, and they were all the same god damned thing! Yet we still bought them. Why did we buy them, because they had prettier graphics ever time? What the flying **** man? Seriously, is this what the game developers think of us? Are we seriously seen as drones that will buy just about anything set in front of our faces? I would love to protest the idea, but I have lost faith because of this one, people bought Ninja Gaiden and all it's exact same spin offs. They even loved the series enough to make Tecmo make a second one. Of course it is nice to see them finally making a sequel, but really at this point I just don't give a **** I lost interest in the entire series after the whole three of one game thing. Honestly, I'm guessing NG2 will feel the exact same as the first three NG games. Then again, I can't remember the last time I enjoyed any type of video game made by Tecmo, those poor stupid ****ing fools.

Know what, **** it; I'll just call out a whole ****ing genre of gaming on their **** Every single ****ing sports game that has been made has just been worse than the last in its respective series. Every MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL and NCAA game that has been released is just a slightly more hacked up version of the last good on in the series. Sure, I understand that the pressure from the sports fans are heavy every year for a new one, but really, should they care that these people **** for these games to come out, and then flat out say it sucks when they do? Seriously EA! Take the safe route take maybe two years to perfect these ****ing things before you set them loose on us every year. Save us some money to buy a good game instead of buying every single edition of these you make. I can live without one of these things every year no problem, there is generally better games coming out all throughout they year. We will live; we will learn that there are plenty of better games to play... Though even if you do start having a little discretion with your games, I'll still think ya'll are idiots.

See my point? developers can get away with it. They do get away with it, and we just buy, buy, buy and buy some more. So really who can blame them for milking a single series over and over again until we just stop caring if it is good or not. It is our own fault, we are the stupid ones, and they are just good businessmen I guess... Sometimes I worry about the intelligence of the human species...

These are the disadvantages of a consumer economy.

You are a very angry man...To be fair though I see where you're coming from. And as Kinneshi said it is the result of consumerism, and demand for more games in people's favorite series. Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying that any of them are good, but as long as the demand, enthusiasm and excitement for the games is there, the developer will continue to churn them out. They would be stupid not too - they'll be making thousands from those fans.

Still the fans get ass-raped because the developer can't be bother to actually produce something new in many cases....

It will be a good day when Square Enix goes bankrupt, then no more Final Fantasy games to be made. Its painfully obvious to say that because of huge fan basses, games that should only have been a single release, will turn into a series that spans a decade or more. Both xTHAWx & Kinneshi are right, consumers are fickle.
