In response to turbonutter's 10 step guide to being a ninty, I risk my chances of ever being accepted here by doing this...
1) Buy every single game in a series, claiming them to be a new game even though they're only slightly different.
2) If there's boobs in it, it must be good.
3) If a game has a slight change in it, then it is a completely different game, and it, and all its sequels and prequels must be purchased.
4) If there's big boobs in it, then it's even better.
5) Despite the similarity to its predecessors, buy every single game in a series, but explain how different they really are.
6) Steal other people's ideas.
7) Although, like a Westlife hit, there is very little difference between this game and others in the franchise, buy all of them, and insist on them being completely different games.
8) Surrender your imagination, sense of wonder and individuality.
9) It's a different Number! It's a whole new game! Let's buy it!
10) Complain that every single game on every single other format is unbearably crap, and should never have existed.
11) Buy it, even though it is essentially the same as its predecessor.
12) Claim that colour is childish.

Hey, you forgot
"Act like you're more mature than Nintendo owners because you go for Red Certificate games"
:-D

"Hang on, the one about the games being similar is recurring!"
I'm surprised that nobody actually picked up on that one being an attempt at humour. I say the games are only slightly different, and say it a load of times, slightly different each time. Understand, now?
Anyway, the entire post was just a bit of a laugh, and also a way to give the playstationians a taste of their own medicine, it's all too easy to complain about other's shortcomings, and conveniently sweep the same problems that are under your nose under the carpet.
ie- all consoles have their good points and bad points, some are shared as good on both or bad on both. There is no better console or hardware developer.
Everyone calm down.

LOL!!
I was joking around on the Ninty one, and Darkness' one. Mostly because they were funny, and had many different reasons!
This one used the same reason about 8 times-and surely someone as clever as you doesn't believe in the 'sequels argument'??
And anyway, I'm only joking about on this one as well! It's total crap!
{:D Surely you know me well enough YH that I'm not a hypocritical person??
Slightly not hypocritical methinks.

Yours got less replies because we respect it.
This is crap, and needs to be humiliated!

Ant, it seems funny to me how you like the one that slates Ninty's but as soon as one says a bad thingy about Sony and the PS2 you say "Oh, what a load of bollards."
