[QUOTE="muthsera666"]Chill. I always thought that UFC was a form of wrestling. I'm pretty sure a lot of others did too.muthsera666
Then perhaps people should do a bit of research before shooting their mouths off, yes?
Again, the demo is exceptional and the OP is asking a valid question. It's that good.
What is adorable is that you think I'm the problem, rather than the rampant ignorance that people swing like a blunt tool.
Look, I don't know what your problem is. I've watched some of UFC. A couple of guys in a ring fighting. For me, that's wrestling. WWF, ECW, NWO, UFC, other alphabet soup, is basically the same as far as I know.
It's not a lack of research that's the problem; it's perception. Obviously, you feel very strongly upon the subject, and you can, no one here cares. Stating our understanding is not shooting our mouths off. If someone said that Halo was a horrible RTS, that would be shooting their mouths off where they obviously don't know what's going on. A couple of guys beating each other up is pretty much the same across the board for many of us non-aficionados.
I never commented to the validity of the game as the GotY, I just said that I doubted it would be voted that.
What I find adorable is that you find it proper and allowable to mock me for something that you could have explained. Instead of enlightening me to you perspective, you chose to ridicule me for something that I did not know I was in error. And, by doing so, you have forever colored my vision toward something. Even if I were to started watching UFC, I would never enjoy it. Someone ruined that experience for me.
So, go on and play your adorable little game in your adorable little life looking down on us adorable little peons unaware of the adorable pleasantries of the world. I'll be over here having fun with what I do and the games I play, and you can go on being adorable.
My problem? I never mocked you. I specifically took issue with somebody else being dismissive about something they obviously knew nothing about, which unfortunately is par for the course around here, and for whatever reason you decided to swoop in and tell me I'm the one with the problem.
The rest ofyour diatribe is simply bizarre. First you make an analogy that calling Halo an RTS would be the equivalent of shooting one's mouth off (which is an accurate statement) and then you proceed to tell me that categorizing MMA as wrestling is perfectly acceptable when in reality it's the equivalent of the analogy you just offered up. Calling that UFC a wrestling game is like calling Fallout 3 a FPS.
As to the whole issue of me ruining the UFC for you, I have a hard time believing that you'd let me influence your opinion that much, but if I have that's your problem, not mine. Again, I didn't attack you and the only reason I addressed you specifically is because you told me to chill, which was a condescending way to address me. I don't like being talked down to anymore than you do but please understand one thing: you decided on the tone of this argument so you can either learn from this situation and we can treat each other with a measure of mutual respect or you can write me off as an a-hole and delude yourself into thinking this whole thing is my fault. Since I really haven't dealt with you before, I can't say I care much either way.
One last thing: I'm playing nice because frankly, this whole conversation is ridiculous. The bottom line is that the OP asked a solid question and got a bunch of pissy little responses from people who obviously have no interest in the sport and haven't spent any real time with the demo. That's basically trolling so either way, I'm on the side of the angels here.
