He posted on the Nintendo forum a while ago saying something was terrible I think wind waker, not sure but maybe he just kept doing it and ran out of chances with the staff. :)
I've heard worse comments before. Surely saying a game is rubbish doesn't merit a banning? Unless he did something else? Or maybe a staffie was so enraged by the ignorance of the poster that he immediately banned him lest he kept posting his clearly nonsensical views?
*frowns*
I was just curious. I don't really care.

Exactly, they want to justify their purchase. Usually by being a little biased, and/or following thr crowd...
It bugs me when people want a game to fail because they have a console that the game isn't appearing on. Even when I only owned a PS2 I don't think I was like that. Sure it was annoying when a new game came out I wanted and it was on a console I didn't have, but that doesn't mean I wanted that game to be bad.
I guess everyone wants to feel they have invested in the right console, and that they haven't wasted their money on something thats going to be dead in a year. To me the fanboys of this world seem a little insecure.
Theres a difference - You don't like Halo. Thats fine - Its not like everyone has to like it.
Its when people start saying things like "Oh another person who doesn't like Halo - hahaha THE EX-BOX SUCKS CAUSE IT HAZ NO GUD GAMEZ. GETTIT? I SAID EX-BOX HAHAHGAHAHAHA!!!1!!"121"
And thank god the idiot who wrote this post is banned.

Most of my games I enjoy are PC/Xbox. Guess I choke on the Microsoft sword then?
