Yakumo, why do you always start spewing bullshit everywhere about the quality in Japanese and Western games? I mean jeez, do you realize I'M a westerner and your generalizations and biased opinions make it seem like you're adding me to that category of gamers who doesn't know anything about quality as well? If you're going to say something, just say CASUAL gamers don't know jack shit about quality, and believe it or not, its not only a western thing to be a casual gamer. I could just as easily say you're gay for every bishie video game character that ever came out of a Japanese RPG. Or that you love loli filled Mah-Jong games, just because you act like Japan is superior to everything else.
Yes! That was a great game, especially in 4 player mode. There was also a commando game I played on a demo disc published by Capcom, but I never saw it in a store. I thought it was called Captain Commando, but it's not the side scroller game from arcade fame. I can't find the game now!
Why do you take everything the wrong way :lol: It was a joke based upon the casual gamers of the west who love nothing but the same old dribble from EA and the likes of. I never even mentioned anything about West Vs Japan :110: It may shock you but I love Excite Trucks on the Wii yet that's not Japanese made. I am Gay and I do fantasize over loli porn mahjong games and yes I dress up as a anime chick and parade in front of the mirror every day before I go to work :lol: Keep off the caffeine or what ever you're on. Relax and stop taking everything to heart. I wouldn't care less if you slagged Japanese games because there are 100's of crap games over here that I can't stand just like the west. :nod: Oh and if you are going to quote me, please do it correct. I can't even understand what you have quoted me as saying. Yakumo
Yakumo, let's go to Holand , get high and get married :lol: (And remember, if we divorce, I ll be taking half your SEGA collection ;-) )

Well then, is it so hard to just say 'casual gamers' instead of 'bloody western gamers'? I mean, really, anyone looking at the latter will come to the same conclusions as Mr. Casual and make the same accusations, correct or not. And don't even start the whole "EA rehash" shit because many of the big name Japanese companies put out the same shit over and over, generation by generation, so that's irrelevant. Either way, your original comment was stated in a way that could easily stir people up. Whether or not that was your intention, I don't know and I don't care. Basically what I'm trying to say is just because you're a moderator doesn't mean you can carelessly throw around your biased comments and tout them as fact. Being in the position you are, your posts should be neutral/non-biased in nature and should be free of "flamewar inducing comments", as your position is one of peacekeeping within the forums. Also, I'm not saying you can't/shouldn't post your opinions and feelings, I'm just asking that you do it in a less biased manner, or that you please refrain from singling out an entire group of people and clumping them together under an insulting moniker, such as 'bloody western gamers'... This is not a personal attack, but also I'm not gonna just sit around like everyone else and watch Mr. Casual get thrown under the bus. I felt like his points were valid, but in the end were (for the most part) ignored and looked upon as attack, which in reality his comments weren't attack, but rather a defense based on a perceived attack because of careless/thoughtless wording.
Alien Workshop is giving trouble to my-soon-to-be-gay-wife, what to do? Seriously though, I m picky on my games most of the time, but I have come to love many games considered casual back in the day, such as mario and sonic (haven't we all?), and even liked games like FIFA RTWC 98 thanks to the innovative graphics and simple gameplay mechanics (I hate soccer sims now, they bust my balls with their complexity). Games are games, not everyone likes poker, and whoever plays solitaire can't be said to be a dick just because he can't deal with Zelda or Katamari PS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iocjuW2gyd0&eurl= hilarious xD

1) Age, location, sex 17, California, USA, Male 2) Your first experience with videogames Super Mario World for the SNES 3) the first game that nailed you on the gaming machine for hours Probably Super Mario World or Donkey Kong Country 4) the first game machine you owned in your life Technically one of those cool toploader NESes from Holiday '95 (thanks to Toys 'R Us for not selling any for a while!) But it wasn't asked for, so technically it would have to be the GameCube. 5) your favorite games ever (name a few!) Donkey Kong Country 2, Tetris Attack, Uniracers, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Super Punch-out!! 6) the games that left you in awe when seeing them (1 per console generation) NES - (wasn't conscious for most of it), SNES - Kirby Super Star (8 GAEMS IN ONE LULZ), N64 - Super Mario 64 (Mario in 3D = ecstasy for imagination-laden 7 year old), GCN (Super Smash Bros. Melee - amazing update, amazing game, amazing gameplay made it my reason for buying a GameCube. I'd do it all again knowing this game would be there.), Wii - (SSBB - why not?) 7) the game you like that is the most underrated Tetris Attack (Panel de Pon, Puzzle Leagues, etc.) - absolutely no one I know has seen this game in the series or played it. It's always just Tetris-thisorthat! I don't like the original Tetris, it's too boring and plain-Jane vanilla for me. Gimme something with CHALLENGE and INTENSE TWO-PLAYER ACTION (oh my, did I just insult the OG Tetris?) Needs a DS port with WiFi local and world. 8) the machine you loved the most SNES - Great gameplay all over the place. 9) the most precious piece in your collection I don't really have any precious pieces... "casual" collector here. I used to have all three SFC Parodius titles at one time, but currently the only worthy "piece" is my complete Resident Evil GCN collection. 10) the most touching moment you experienced in videogaming. (gamewise or not) "You're the Inspiration" in Elite Beat Agents 11) game machine you missed and that you would have liked to have PC Engine - not only does it "sort of" combine hardware aspects of the NES, SNES, and GENESIS in my opinion, it also combines the disposability and gameplay of the former two. Shmup heaven too. Sadly, I've only read about it..
1) Age, location, sex 19, USA, PENIS! 2) Your first experience with videogames When Sonic The Hedgehog snuggled me into bed and took my innocence, it was either that, Mario 1 or TMNT. 3) the first game that nailed you on the gaming machine for hours TMNT 3 on NES, but I think when I started playing stuff for hours was when I got PSX with all those RPGS or maybe Sonic 3+Knuckles. 4) the first game machine you owned in your life NES, my mom grabbed one from Kmart in 92 for Mario 3. Still have it! Still works great! I played stuff at other peoples houses like baby sitters though. 5) your favorite games ever (name a few!)

I never liked many FF's but it, but a lot of people used to slam it when I played it. 8) the machine you loved the most Dreamcast, I had so much fun with the online stuff, PSO, Sonics, getting games for cheap and homebrew...badass! 9) the most precious piece in your collection I dunno, I guess all my stuff. The only non retail thingy I have is a prototype Xbox controller, I guess I'd be pissed if I lost Xenogears or my JVC Xeye. 10) the most touching moment you experienced in videogaming. (gamewise or not) Hrrm, Xenogears whole story, the fun I've had playing so much 007 and PD with my cousins, the whole fun era of PSX where I'd rent a bunch of games on the weekend, since stuff was all new back then it rocked! 11) game machine you missed and that you would have liked to have I dunno, I kind of have em all now, I guess I woulda had fun playing Saturn imports and such.
