About Me


I own a FamPuter, which is a 100% fake Famicom. And I do own Super Mario Bros. and Rockman 2 for it, which you don't. :P



I'm a 32 year old gamer. I cannot hang out with most of you, and you should not contact me to buy you cheap wine or cigarettes. I do not like jail. Seriously, I own all three consoles and I don't discriminate. Gaming is for fun, not for sissy slapfights. If you consider yourself partial to a particular console, I don't care why you don't own other consoles, I don't want to hear about it. If you're going to bitch about something, you'd better bring some hard evidence of why you're complaining if you want to cry on my shoulder.

Enjoy this wonderful picture of 2 generations coming together at last...

A repost for people who either missed it or forgot already.

What's the point of it all?

Seriously? Is it money? Can you not afford multiple consoles? Can you not appreciate good art no matter what the platform?

OH! You need to be able to shoot some nig--z.



What is this horse crap? It's 6 minutes of meandering. Compares a controller to a dildo? That's a valid point! Xbox has zero games apparently. And the games it has, have pussy soundtracks with bitch ass "Tears of War" for titles.

Chad Warden aside, what's the benefit you get out of deriding a console? Does it make your dick harder? Does it get you more pussy? More cash? Bigger rims to spin your 1" thick tires upon? A perfect 300 at the local bowling alley?

Or is it that deep down in your heart, you're jealous of which you cannot afford and this is your ONLY way to lash out?



It's the same everywhere you go. People have issues on consoles with the way a game console looks. Need I point out the fact that original consoles, ALL the way back to what basically created your hobby you currently enjoy all looked like ass.



I mean if I have to compare this to anything, I'd lose automatically because I'm judging a console's quality based on the visual aesthetic of the FUCKING SYSTEM.



And look at this shit. It's a grey boring ass box. Who'd play this? Right?

I hear these guys don't like Nintendo for some reason...

[i]HAHAHAHAHAHAH! I GET IT! IT'S MAKING A COMMENT
AGAINST RACIAL STEREOTYPES! HOW KEEN![/i]

Pfft, I need a Sony platform clearly to handle my gaming needs.



One thing's for sure. Sony's never put out anything that made someone question their sexuality, that's for sure.

Ever. So, sorry if

this seems like a Sony fanboy rant, but it seems far too common in their ilk than to see with other consoles. If someone from the Dreamcast community wants to pipe up, join in on the comments. But this is really getting fucking old.

I'm drawing a line in the sand here today. I'm not a fanboy. I'm a gamer.

I'm a gamer. And you should be too.

To decry anyone's console of choice is a bigoted and stupid thing to do that makes you no better than a lot of other famous bigots.


These guys are fans of irrational ideals. I guess that makes them fanboys as well.

Tell me I'm wrong. Go on. Show up on my porch and tell me why I'm wrong. Tell me why it is that your particular console is head and shoulders better than the rest and end it all for fucks sake. Because, surely, your single opinion will shift the millions of other gamers out there with your single valid argument. It'll end millions invested in game development for multiple platforms and send millions out of a job based on your one opinion. And we're not talking about a "Shit, my shit's better because yours sucks because it's gay." No, you don't win there. And you don't win on sales figures. Your console could be the lowest selling console on the market and ANYONE that buys it and enjoys it gets to benefit from it and your argument FAILS SO FUCKING HARD that you might as well give up on your line of thought because all it does is retard and reaffirm your bigoted ideals for YOURSELF AND YOU ALONE. That person that buys that one console. He's going to enjoy things you could not dream of because your stupid, narrow minded ideal.

Good sir, I ask you today to leave Destructoid.

We are a HARDCORE GAMING COMMUNITY and we do not like your kind here. We like gamers. We do not like fanboys.

How can I qualify this any further? There's already been a mass discussion on this on this site, but maybe it needs to be brought back every once in a while to remind people why it is that Destructoid is NOT a Sony site, NOT a Microsoft site, and NOT a Nintendo site.

We play games on Destructoid.

So... if you're staying, come on in, but...

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND JUST PLAY GAMES.

Leave your bias at the door.

Here, here! I agree with you completely. The one thing I do want to point out, though, is that you can disagree with a company's philosophy. I personally refused to buy a PS3 simply because Sony was a bunch of arrogant pricks about it. They dominated last generation and they expected to this generation. I don't like companies feeding me lies and figures when they mean nothing. I won't say I love Nintendo or Microsoft either. Nintendo is naive and M$ can talk up a shitstorm also. I just feel that even though we should not disregard a console for its brand alone, we should also challenge the companies that make them to be more like people, and join the community they control.

Sorry, hold on. Irony called.

"Because issues are not new doesn't mean they don't need to be highlighted. Quite the opposite really, If those issues haven't been addressed they need to be talked of more."

My computer almost exploded from copy pasting so much bullshit, sorry I had to do it in sections. The comment is quite real, not a shoop.

Well even when that meaningless statement is applied, one thing is still for certain : The PS3 has no rumble/games, the 360 is the WORST piece of hardware in console history, the Nintendo Wii has a rubbish online and is for kids, and yes, Yojimbo is still a contradicting d-bag.

Move along folks.. nothing to see here.

I don't mind Yojimbo (when he does great things for the community with his PS3 FNF) but the fucking asshole needs to stop being a fucking asshole and just not address me. Wrong fucking time of the day to pick my comment out of a blog full of opinions, and then proceed to be so coy when calling me names.

Holy fuck what did I miss? Can't everybody just get along? Aren't we here to discuss GAMES? If Yojimbo wants to post inflammatory blogs, let him. He does in fact have some valid points here and there, as does Snaileb. But let's consider that he does at least own all 3 systems. He just prefers his PS3 and seems to enjoy seeing everyone get angry over that.

Of course, I don't even know what happened here, so please disregard the previous statement if it makes no sense.

Just in case I've already made a fool of myself (I know, by default), I'll say this: I agree wholeheartedly with dvddesign's stance on fanboys. GTFO.

Fanboys will always exist. I can go on with examples from comic books to motor vehicles. You kinda touched on one of the reasons for their existence in your post dvdesign. When you enjoy something so much as to make it a major part of your life you tend to defend your opinions on the subject/object as if your life depended on it. Unfortunate as it is, it will never end. Not while ignorance and ego run rampant that is.
I personally buy what I want. I make up my own mind and try not to defend my opinions but do try to elaborate on why my opinion is what it is. I wish more people did this but to elaborate on a feeling can be hard sometimes.

What I find amusing is the the ignorance on display and continuing still. Far as I know I didn't cuss Snaileb out or attack him personally..I just said the 360 is the most unreliable piece of shit known to man..in the content of the the blog post..relating to his comments and Guitar Atomiks.

What's wrong with Snaileb now is that he feels he's been exposed for the 360 fanboy he really is.

I chose my words wisely when I posted..Snaileb let his anger get the better of him. The REALLY funny part is I'm not in the least angry.

Notice also how he removed me as a friend in the FNF posts and his personal account. Funny stuff. There were times my friend when people could have a debate and afterwards nothing changes between them. Times may be changing.

And for what? A plastic device that plays video games.. there's some irony in there if I look closely. I'm sure of it.

The only one that needs to grow up here is you Snaileb. This could be an oppurtunity for you to man up and apologize and let bygones be bygones.

Or you could just continue doing what your doing, Still taking personal attacks on me. still reciting my Age ( ?? } and continuing this nonsense. I encourage you to read all of my comments and tell me where I was calling you a prick, a douchebag, a fucking asshole.

You'll find none of that. But I do find it in abundance in your comments. You need to look at the man in the mirror.

Also, I apologize to everyone here that had to see this display of utter failness that has transpired here. I will take responsibity for it. You'll hear nothing more from me on this subject.

That was a cheap shot Jimbo. I'm not saying he's right or wrong or that you're wrong or right, but that was a cheap shot.

I still love you though. lol

Snaileb is the man at Gears of War, and for this I respect him. He's also selling a lot of great games. Even cooler.

Both of you guys need to quit this shit. I know it's been said a million times before, but arguing over the internet is like winning the special olympics: Even if you win, you still fail.

I agree that the "fanboy" shit really needs to go away. Every console has its good qualities and bad ones. The true "fanboys" are like religous zelaots, they are right, everyone else is wrong, end of story. You can't reason with them, no matter how completly you dismantle their arguments, its best not to try. Normally I shake my head, laugh it off, and move on, because really is worth my time? Hells no.

On a seperate note in regards to what yojimbo said about debating someone and nothing would change after. That time my friend may be coming to an end. My boss is a perfect example, he hates confrontation. I'll confront him about something valid, and present my point or opinion with great verve and passion, and he sends me to someone else or just ignores it, or gets offended to the point where he lashes out. Something along the lines of "Wow maybe you shouldn't be talking to me about this, try so and so instead." Um no, you're my most direct boss and I'm having a problem with something, for fucks sake do something. He would rather not deal with it and just ignore the issue. People take shit to seriously, you call someone a name on myspace and they show up at your door ready to fight you. I've seen vids. The time for educated debates between adults and young adults is coming to an end.

"What I find amusing is the the ignorance on display and continuing still."

NO, you're doing it again. You may not be upright calling me ignorant, but you actually are. All your comments prior to this has been filled with that exact same tripe.

And I never had you as a friend on the FNF, or my account. Even if I did... what did that statement prove? That you can troll yourself of friends lists?

And Im not apologizing for all this fail, because you deserve it Yojimbo. A NICE BIG FAT PLATE OF FAIL.

Also, Im a Nintendo fanboy, you cunt. Shows how quickly you jump to conclusions. My two years of being here I haven't exactly gone all out on a community member cussing up a storm, but you deserve it, ASS.
