Why My Taste in Games is Better Than Your's
Heretic | 1:00 PM on 08.17.2008 69 comments




*puts down cup of wine* Oh hello there Destructoid. I apologize I didn't see you there I was too busy reading Great Expectations. Its recently come to my attention that I in fact have better taste in games than you. Why is that you may ask? Well while you enjoy your Halos, Final Fantasies, and other (gross) mainstream games I'm enjoying flash games, indie games (that no one knows about), and of course old PC games that were made before I was born.

You and your mainstream games are ruining my hobby so I would appreciate it if you would piss off. You enjoy horrible games like Braid and Portal. This games are shit for one reason, they're popular. Sure I could use the excuse that Braid is too expensive but I like being honest and honestly I hate popular things. Its actually quite enjoyable seeing idiots like you become filled with anger over knowing I hate a popular game. Halo is shit, Final Fantasy 7 is shit, and of course Braid is shit. All the games you like are terrible.

You have no idea how cool I feel right now. Saying I dislike your "games" helps me stand out as an individual. I'm not some conformist who plays all of your silly little popular games. I usually only play games no one has ever heard of. It makes it rather hard to find enjoyable games however. For example I was enjoying Kickle Cubicle until I went on a forum where everyone was talking about it. I immediately grabbed my cartridge and burned it. I will not play any games that have even a small fanbase because I, unlike you, am not a conformist.

In the end I can only say that I' am much better than you. Your taste in games symbolizes who you are just like music (I only listen to indie music BTW). I pity you and your idiotic taste in games. Enjoy your shitty popular games like (gross) Braid. Oh you've finally found an artistic game your small brain can comprehend? Congratulations I've been playing those for years. You may ask yourself, "Why do people think its cool to hate popular titles?" Well you know something I don't think its cool. No not at all. I KNOW its cool to hate popular games because it helps me stand out as an individual. So fuck you and your shitty mainstream games I'm going to play another NES game that no one has ever heard of.

My taste in games is superior to yours. I play generally every game I get my hands on without discretion. Be they as infamous as Superman 64 or as beloved as Chrono Trigger, I play them all and love them all the same.

The console doesn't matter, so long as its the medium of electronic entertainment through an input source. Be it a keyboard and mouse or a simple joystick with one red button. All systems are equal opportunity for amusement.

Nothing matters anymore. Only that it is spent in enjoyment. One of the last things that makes me happy is playing video games. Beloved or hated, I like video games. All games.

You can say the most deliberately stupid, most utterly unintelligible nonsense on the Internet and someone will always take you seriously. Usually that someone is me, but not today.

Just letting you know in case you actually thought it was possible, as if this was some kind of experiment.

Still you don't have to like every game. Tastes are different.
To hate on people who like a game or don't like a game is completely stupid.

What Parapa said.

People have different tastes and you have no goddamn right to say they are retarded for not likeing something you like. No matter how bloody popular a fucking game is there are going to be people who don't like it or like it significantly less than others.

I like Resident Evil 4, do I freak out when people say they hate it or dislike it? No I fucking don't because I realize that is their opinion.No game is immune to this. There is no game everybody likes and everybody adores. Calling people idiots isn't going to fucking change that.

You should make your next post something along the lines of "Why I'm (much) more of a cunt than you". It's surely be an interesting read.

I'm not good with sarcasm and I always take things too seriously.

I tried a short and sweet parody article myself, vaguely similar to this but about 4 lines long and very childish. Didn't work, ended up having to apologise for starting another bloody flamewar.

Heretic/Aborto, it's not about being good at sarcasm or being thick. Sarcasm just doesn't work on the internet whatsoever, i speak from experience.

"Sarcasm just doesn't work on the internet whatsoever, i speak from experience. "
I'm going to be an elitist prick and say that Internet sarcasm is a lesson. If you react to something seriously that was intended as a joke, you will look like a verbal shit pistol. You will then either learn from it and not take the internet so cereously, or you will continue to be a shit pistol and end up slugging faecal matter for the rest of your days.

It's perfectly acceptable so long as you are willing to understand that you're probably going to get quite messy, and you'll probably only entertain the minority.
