Top 5 stupid things on the GameSpot Forums.

5. "Is it worth it?" God I hate this freaking question. Why do people insist on posting threads that vaguely ask if a game or system is worth it. what is your definition of worth? And why can't you figure this question out by simply reading a review for said game? Typically, the reviews will answer that question a hell of a lot better than some random internet schlub who will post "Yes, the games owns!!11 Buy it suxorz". Only YOU can determine if something is "worth it" or not, not anybody else. And this is a little bit off the subject, but can't people make decisions for themselves anymore?

4. The indifferent smiley post. Why do people insist on posting replies that are nothing more than one single smiley? It contributes nothing to a post, wastes your time and the time of anyone reading the thread, and it's the most played out, overused thing on the forums, besides from the typical stupid buzzwords. It's not funny or clever anymore, and I personally take it as a sign that the poster is too braindead and stupid to come up with a worthy, intelligent response to a thread. Then again, these forums aren't exactly filled with intelligent people. I think you all know who I am talking about....

3. "I just bought a GameCube, now what games shoudl I get?" I see this question all the time, and it's not just for the GameCube, it's for every system. Now, when I bought my PS2, I knew exactly what games I wanted for it. If I didn't, I wouldn't have dropped $200 on it. The same thing goes for my Xbox and GameCube, both times I bought those consoles, I had 4 or 5 games in mind that I wanted. So why do people buy a console, and then ask other people what games they should buy? Why did you buy the system in the first place if you don't know of any good games for it?

2. Ban dodgers and general morons. I love these guys who will make one account, just so they can go on a tirade about how much GameSpot sucks, just so they can get banned. What did they hope to accomplish with this? Do these losers get some kind of gratification out of annoying others for a short period of time? People like these should take some advice from my boy Homeless Jobber and go play in traffic.

1. System Wars. Now I know, most of the stuff in System Wars is just meant to be stupid, but I have a feeling that a lot of the mental defectives on that board are serious in their hatred for gaming. Why would any real gamer want a system or game to do badly? It doesn't make sense. If a game for the PS2 only does badly, in a way, it hurts all games for all systems. But these people just don't get that for some reason. And their catch phrases that they use are ridiculous. How many times can you use the word flop before the meaning of it starts to diminish? I guess, in a way, System Wars is a good thing for GameSpot, since it lets all the goofballs stay in one forum, instead of dispering themselves all over the forums.

Seacrest out.
