Not really, since any PS360 fan could just waltz right in and post anti-Nintendo comments. :P

Why all the re-caps of news from PSP and Wii fanboy?? I think posting it on their respective sites would be enough...
...I guess I wouldn't have this gripe if I didn't feel the urge check Joystiq every 15 minutes of my work day. So many reports written with a browser open behind my word processor...alt-tab, ctrl-r...
Kill me now.

The title of this article should be FLAME BAIT.
In capital letters just like above.
A boy clad in green, huh?
"I'm Chris Hanson, why don't you have a seat over there."
"What are you doing here."
"You say you have the last piece of the Tri-Force?"
Shmil @ Oct 17th 2007 8:05PM
are you implying that link is a pedophile?
playwhutyalike @ Oct 17th 2007 8:08PM
No. Link is a boy. How the f can he be a pedophile.
Think about a scenario where someone is trying to meet Link. And that OLDER man has a piece of the Tri Force for him.
Read the above over and over till you get it.

Michael Jackson has the Triforce in his pants.

A land filled with PS2 ports...the land of shovelware.

Hilarious. It surprises me to see that people who even own a Wii are still living off launch games/virtual console games. Personally i think the Wii has tons of great games, i own:
Zelda: Twilight Princess
Tony Hawk Downhill Jam (Best TH Game Eva!)
Wii Sports
Resident Evil 4 (DEFINATLY worth the upgrade from GC)
Metal Slug Anthology
Mortal Kombat Armageddon
Super Paper Mario
Mario Strikers Charged
Sonic and the Secret Rings
The Godfather
The only game out of all of those i wouldn't recommend except for the fans is Mortal Kombat, the rest are fantastic games A+ This list doesnt even touch on games coming out soon i want:
Nights: Journey of Dreams
Manhunt 2
RE: Umbrella Chronicles
Battalion Wars 2
Mario Kart Wii
Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime 3
DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (Wifi FTW)
Geometry Wars: Galaxies
Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution
Medal of Honor Heroes 2
Plenty of good Wii games, your just an ignorant fanboy.

You know if I had more time (less of a life) I'd probably put 5 to 8 hours a day of gaming on another system. But you know what? The Wii does it for me.
I grew up on old school games, and with my attention span (or lack of), I can go rent a game and have, god forbid, fun. So with that being said, I'm not going to bash on the 360 or PS3, because really, WHO CARES WHAT I THINK. Also, I will own a 360 when GTA IV comes out. Until then, Wii for me. And still loving it too, by the way.
Now y'all excuse me while I play some Sin and Punishment.
Jeff @ Oct 17th 2007 8:14PM
Psh, figures. A bunch of Wii posts duct-taped together.
Geist @ Oct 17th 2007 9:45PM
Each post is just two gamecube posts duct-taped together.

I'd like to take this opportunity to rub it in Philly David Hinkle's face my home team Indians are going to the World Series. Oh and posters shouldn't take it personally when he said the fanboy sites should be havens for their respective fanboys.

I love how people make a list of mediocre games but label them as triple A...
Oh well, to each his own.
