Annoyances

For anyone that actually reads blogs (at least for anyone that actually reads my blog which is few to none), blogs are a place where you can tell how you feel.  Do I really need to describe this?  Thought not.  Onto what I am blogging about.

I'm an easy-going guy.  I don't get frustrated too often, I most of the time just let things happen.  This is one reason why I don't really post, cause I never have anything to say among the crap-load of fanboys and I don't really ever feel like trying to explain myself to someone who won't listen after I inform them of things.  But in a blog, I can voice my opinion and whether people care or not, doesn't really matter.  They can comment, and I guess could argue in the comments but I don't really care. 

So the basis of my 'Annoyances' blog is fanboys.  Pretty much all the fanboys that annoy me when I read the forums about Zelda: TP, PSPs, or current-gen (next-gen for those that still use the term) systems. 

I'll start with Twilight Princess.  Whose right is it to use terms like TSHBO or anything in the likes of it?  If you say that you are basically labelling yourself as a fanboy for the other system, because are you telling me you were not looking forward to this game?  If you were, you had been owned too and that gives you no right to claim ownage.  I see this so often when I am lurking the boards and its just annoying.  Yes, people that hyped the game should accept the fact they were wrong but just let it go too.  Its not the end of the world that TP got an 8.8 and an 8.9 here at GS.  Personally, I loved the game and found their review wrong but to each his own. 

And the people that say TP is pretty much a remake of OOT is horse-$*%#!  Have you played the game?  More than likely if you are calling the game a remake, then no you haven't.  The story isn't the same, environment isn't the same.  What is the same, huh?  A little bit of the music?  Link is the main character?  The artistic style?  This is the second actual 3D Zelda that is set in a Hyrule that is not flooded?  Those are the reasons I see people calling it a remake and those are crap reasons.  The story is different, more fleshed out and dealing with a Twlight Realm.  No its not the same as the Dark World found in A Link to the Past so people saying that need to get over themselves and see.  Weapons are different in this game, dungeons take a long time.  People just need to shut up with the remake crap and play the game and see for themselves.  And the people that were expecting more from this Zelda or felt like it was too much like OOT, whoopdie f-ing doo.  Would you rather it feel like Halo or GTA?  Of course its gonna feel like Zelda, its what we wanted.  And if you were expecting more from this game and then you feel let down, get over yourselves!  Just because it didn't live up to the hype FOR YOU doesn't mean its a bad game or the worst Zelda.  You just expected too much, so get over it and live with the fact that its still awesome. 

Onto the PSP, the PSP is not failing!  I'm sick of hearing fanboys saying that the DS is so frikkin awesome and the PSP sucks.  It doesn't suck!  Each system has the same amount of AAA's here on GS (and if you count Nintendogs as more than one game, I guess they could have released four different versions of Tekken:  Dark Resurrection which means they would be beating in AAA's so stfu).  Why does everyone hate the PSP so much?  The analog nub?  Quit being babies, the N64 only had one analog stick.  The load times?  Not all of the games load times are bad.  Is it the battery life?  I would like to see what happens when your DS dies of battery life.  I mean when my PSP begins to die I charge it, but for those people that whine about the battery life of the PSP I wouldn't think they would charge their DSs.  Thats absurd to think.  Is it the ports of the games being from the consoles?  Have you ever thought that maybe that is what PSP owners want?  When looking at games to buy, we are not expecting the PSP games to be greater than the console versions, we are wanting the games for the portability aspect! 

If you are saying you don't like the PSP cause you don't like the games, that doesn't bother me all that much.  More power to ya.  But I find myself buying more PSP games than DS games.  The DS games don't appeal to me all that much.  The Castlevania games do (hoping to get the new one for X-mas), Zelda does, Mario Kart is fun, Metroid did (until...yeah...).  But with the PSP I get near-console versions of some great games.  MGS: PO, GTA, Socom, and soon FF7: CC.  Yes the DS is coming out with some games that look awesome too and I am looking forward to getting some quality DS , but the DS fanboys that say the PSP doesn't have a good game library need to get their heads out of their a****. 

And those trying to make the arguement that UMD movies failed.  :cry: Oh no!  Something that a lot of PSP owners didn't even care about failed!  Don't you think that if I did care how UMD movies sold I would actually go out and buy some? 

Well the PSP now has the thing where you can download PSone games and play them on your PSP.  I find that to be a nice feature (except for the fact that I need a PS3 to download them, but hopefully sometime in the near future we wont).  But I read people on the forums talking crap about how why would they play those games when they could just get them for cheaper in the store?  Ya know, that raises a good, similar question for the VC of the Wii.  Why would I buy one of those games on the VC when I could go buy the real version of the game in stores.  Oh, its because of price...I'm sorry.  I didn't know.  Yeah you know what, stfu with that arguement.  A lot of those games are pretty cheap save a few, and the same goes for the PSP.  Also, not everyone has a store where they can buy PSone games (my Gamestop doesn't sell them anymore) and so maybe this PSone download thing is actually good for some people; those people that didn't one a PSone and missed out maybe?  I would like the VC to catch up on SNES games and N64 games I missed out on, its the same thing! 

So yeah, I pretty much hate fanboys.  I keep quiet in the boards cause there is no point in arguing with them cause they won't listen.  So yep, have a good day.  :)
