Hey, hey, hey, hey. I am fully aware of this and am mad at Nintendo for screwing over Sony. I understand that. I think Sony took it too far, though, going so far as to continue using the product name they had come up with for Nintendo to rub in their faces that they didn't need Nintendo (not that Nintendo didn't start

Dayum shame.

Oh, it's cool, it'll just go down as another overhyped game that everybody plays but in the end is no more important than any other game you could ever play, like Halo, Portal, or The Legend of Zelda: OoT. Great for their time, but ultimately unnecessary and now so fundamentally better than everything that came before

As I've already stated, I'm a Nintendo fanboy still bitter about the PS1. It's really petty, I know, but my child-self would not let me let go of it. It is embedded into my core.

When people feel something is beyond reproach is the best time to remind them that it's still a corporation with corporate attitudes who merely saw the success of the console market and decided to ride it, thus forcing Sega out of the console race and eventually luring Microsoft in.

When love and care is built into the foundation of every conscious aspect of a game and it shows, I can appreciate it. When a game is a watered down port across all platforms, I'll call it out for what it is. It doesn't go one way. For instance, FFXI sucked on PC and PS2 as far as I'm concerned, and it was meant to be

Such is how boycotting works. You cut yourself off from things you enjoy to show your disdain for things that you do not. I happen to hate a company with extreme prejudice, and I have missed out because of it, but if you are afraid of getting hurt, you can't fight a war, am I wrong?

Why must you treat me with disdain? I am vocal about my hate for Sony. Sue me, but don't insult my reasoning capability or my persona. I'd be glad to interact with you intelligently, but if you are going to be offended because I didn't like your perfect-little-game, you may very well be guilty of what you're accusing

I didn't say that, I just actively hate Sony and boycott them. My reasons are my own (though I have touched upon them in this very comment thread) and accusing me of hypocrisy because I prefer other companies is not entirely valid. I hate Sony, I don't buy their consoles. That doesn't mean I don't buy Nintendo's

Hey, now, I thought I've done a pretty good job at intelligently replying to anyone who had any intelligent arguments against my statement. You've made that impossible to do against your comment!

That won't be a problem once my clever boycotting forces Sony out of the console business FOREVER AH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH!

See, the coincidence is that now I mostly game on PC. I own a Wii on principle, though, and also have a 3DS. I'm looking forward to getting a Wii U once it has enough games I want to play, but I'm waiting because I don't want a console that's just going to gather dust until then.

No, it would be like Rareware making games for the XBox

No, I've been playing Torchlight 2 so the entire Diablo series has kinda... fallen completely off my radar with all the other meant-for-PC-but-designed-for-console games.

Your attempts at sarcasm are some of the worst I've seen in awhile. Sorry.

If a console doesn't have a feature that makes it interesting in its own right, what's the point of having different consoles? Microsoft and Sony asked themselves this when the Wii came out, and that's why we have the Move and the Kinect. Exclusives are rarely tied to their console in any truly meaningful way,

I won't buy a PS4 and I won't watch a Let's Play. My hope is that eventually I'll be able to play it on PC, whether via emulation or legitimate port, but I don't think Naughty Dog has ever done a port to anything, which is a damn shame. I still haven't played any of the Jax and Daxter games, nor anything in the

Exclusives have a purpose but it doesn't mean I like it. It's nice when I get to brag about an exclusive (Resident Evil 4 until it became multiplatform, for instance), but it sucks when I have to deny myself a game to maintain my own loyalties and core values.

No, not really. I have, on occasion, done one-man renditions of the entire history of Nintendo and Squaresoft up to the PS2 era. Entirely esoteric, self-serving, but hilarious.
