Transformers actor Shia LaBeouf has a thing or two to say about the Wii

Anybody that "Doesn't mess with the Wii"is not that serious about video games anyway.

My father is 64 and the only system he has is a PS3. Wut's your point?

Some of my favorite parts are:

"Buddy, I'm a gamer. Not just the fake ones you read about. "

".I don't mess with the Wii, to be honest with you. It's kind of an amateur console. I'm not into the Wii thing."

" Who wants to play the Wii version of LEGO Star Wars. I'd rather eat glass"

"Toys aren't enough."

Thoughts SW?

Didn't he have a finger amputated? One would think he'd embrace the Wii a bit more. Bentham

Mysterious black guy, is my hero.

Now we have an actor who likes the Wii (Tom Cruise) and one who hates the Wii.

I disagree, and he has no real sway in the gaming. He might just love attention, wasn't he the one who was arrested on purpose.

[QUOTE="funsohng"]well he doesnt appreciate Zelda or Mario according to the statement, and that's not really a gamer if you do thatcainetao11

its those 2 games and a massive pile of shovelware, why else would you look to get one?

You really think the devs care what some B-rated actor has to say. I didn't know Transformors the game was going to big. Most likely they will put some motion capturing balls on his face, pay him and make him gtfo.

Unique third party games that are not just mindless generic shooters or offer more then just blood...and metroid.

I'm sorry I don't have time to check teen people everyday and worry about what he is doing. Kind of sad you think certain people are worth more then others because they are in movies, celebrities are people too. And he has not been around long enough or realesed enough block busters to be considered A-list, no matter how many chances he gets.

There goes Shia running his mouth again, making himself look like an idiot. His comments make him the "Fake Gamer" you read about. I don't like the Wii but I can appreciate some of the games on the system but Shia just when too far and sounds like he jumped on the "Its cool to hate teh Wii" bandwagon.

I love that he just said what most people think about the Wii.

If thats the case then why is it selling so well...

Ya keep telling yourself that.

Neither of those series are anywhere near as good as they were, the 3d ones pretty much suck.

I still have my SNES plugged in :P

i know i already post this but let again who cares, if you like the wii (which i do) then you should not care what other people think of it.it should not matter what Shia Labeouf said about the wii.

Stevo_the_gamer

One that would dismiss an entiregame library simply because its on a certain system cannot have the gaming amplitude necessary to call themselves a serious gamer.

IMO

ridiculous so many care so much, 19 PAGES!! :|

Here we go, a bunch of fanboys bashing Shia because of his prefence in consoles. :lol:

It scares me that people care about what he says.

you dont turn down a chance to have megan fox play with your wii

Shes still a 'gamer'

Its just how she plays games that differ's to other people - You, me and stevo are 'core' gamers - because we play games as a hobby, not to pass time or for entertainment purposes exclusively.

Its like me saying someone who goes to see movies once in a while is a 'casual' movie goer - it makes no sense. They still like watching movies and are movie fans, probably - they aren't movie buffs, however.

Same thing here.

And his opinion matters more than anyone else's because...? As far as I'm aware, he has no specific expertise in gaming or experience in the gaming industry beyond that of the people in this board.

Everyone might as well make their own thread saying ' has a thing or two to say about the '.

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]First off -- I wasn't being serious. Secondly... LOL. I'm sorry, but I don't consider my mother-in-law a "gamer" because she plays Wii Fit. :lol: I do not throw around the such term lightly.Haziqonfire

Haziqonfire

No, she's not. :|

I'm sorry but neither is she, nor my five year old neice "gamers" just because they fling their hands around or move their weight around in order to complete balance mini-games on Wii Fit or Wii Sports. Don't give me that BS, Haziq.

Stevo_the_gamer

I would say so - I mean if your playing a game, no matter who you are, you are a gamer - at least to me. I don't care what it is, if you play a game, you are a 'gamer'.

Thats how I see it. I mean I'm not going to say my friends mom isn't a gamer because she plays Brain Age, or that crossword game on her DS. She plays games, she is a gamer.

Its just not the same type of gamer that you and I are - they don't have the same passion towards the hobby as we do - and thats fine.

Haziqonfire

Well, this will go in circles -- you can believe whatever you so please, Haziq. I try not to throw around the usage of the term gamer to individuals to whom in which it clearly does not apply. If you think it's as easy to apply the usage to it, then so be it. I for one, do not consider a kid with an airsoft gun going after birds a "hunter" even if he considers himself to be. Same logic applying to this case.
