The Nintendo brigade have been getting onto Goatboy a little lately for his remarks about the Gamecube. Well at least he tried it. To prove this I looked back at old posts, so you can see for yourself, Goatboy did try it.

Here's evidence too.

Simply replace the number after 'threadid' in the URL (currently 508xx) with the following 5 digit numbers:

42885 Goatboy resisting temptation

42985 Goatboy pretending the Gamecube is for poor spasticated little Timmy.

43060 Goatboy goes to buy a lightsaber, but gets a Gamecube.

43135 The Gamecube effect works on Goatboy.

43284 Goatboy gets Super Monkey Ball.

43777 Er, Goatboy talks Joe Dolci and Falco for no apparent reason.

43729 Goatboy falls out with Super Monkey Ball.

43979 Goatboy tries to fix the notable election. ;o)

See?

He tried, he didn't enjoy.

I still say he should have listened to me, waited until Xmas and bought the console once Eternal Darkness was out - but that's not important.

Ok, I'll explain this one last time for any propeller-beanie-hat people out there that seem unable to take in a simple point:

To you they are innovative.
To me, they are boring and simplistic. Because you think they're ground-breaking etc etc,doesn't make it so.
Doesn't mean I have to agree with you.
Is *any* of this sinking in yet?

I bought this system, knowing my boredom with Nintendo. Despite years of gaming and having never once enjoyed a Nintendo console game, I got one.
To try.
And I found it lacking.
Super Monkey Ball isn't innovative. It is Marble Madness with next-gen graphics.
I found it frustrating, because to me, a challenge is more than keeping a ball balanced along a narrow strip.
A challenge to me is a game that makes me think, presents me with decisions that affect the outcome/definition of a character.
Something with a bit more depth than "Monkey roll. Level complete."

It's nothing to do with guns or dragons you illiterate bozo.
It's got to do with, being 29, I demand more from a game than music and a funny monkey in a ball.
But, and here it comes again, I BOUGHT THE F###ING CONSOLE TO SEE FOR MYSELF.

Therefore, for me, my opinion is valid.
And no amount of feebly attempted sarcastic posts is going to change that.
I do not like Nintendo games.
They are child-like and present no depth for me.
Had a Super Nintendo and found it lacking.
Had an N64 and found it lacking.
Had a Gamecube and found it lacking.

Christ this really is like trying to teach semaphore to a donkey.
Put your toys back in the pram ok?
So somebody doesn't like the same console as you.
Well ain't that something. Deal with it.
Enjoy your Gamecube, ignore my posts about how much I do not enjoy it BASED ON PLAYING THE F###ING THING FOR 2 MONTHS and post elsewhere.

Stop muuuuuhing because not everyone likes the same thing as you.
That's life.
Sometimes life sucks, wear a helmet.

Eh? I don't think persuading him with gamecube games is going to change his opinion.

Lol - Nintendo games for spastics and retards - the US ad for Supoer mario sunshine seems to attract that kinda audience.

Like i say i admire you sticking by opinion goatboy, you rock!

As I remember, he got stuck on level 10 on the advanced setting and then sold the Gamecube because Monkey Ball was too hard for him... ;-D

We might all be 5 year old spaztics but when it comes to computer games that involve skill, we Ninty's kick your soft Sony-trained-ass! So there! :-P

Hur hur, lets leave him to play his big spastic games with dwarves and elves and people with beards.

We'll all just go on and enjoy some of the most innovative games for ages, maybe they're full of cute fwuffy animals but rather that than big beardy blokes who run around colecting the stone of Rorgarath to slay the level 46 dragon will level 69 dwarves with incontinance pants strapped to their heads.

Oh it's got guns Mummy, that means it must be good, me big strong male me can not play the best games around me have to beat chest and show my man hood through my gay games for tards, but they have guns and manly thing so they are good.

Oh shut up you incessantly babbling children.

"He doesn't like the gamecube!"
"He says it's crap!"
"He didn't like monkeyball!"

You sound like angry chickens.
Grow up, shave that stupid little fuzzy teen moustache off and leave me alone to state my opinions on what I like and don't like.

You enormous bovine menace.

I second that remark!

Super Monkey Ball is easy.
You couldn't be further from the truth.
You didn't like it, made fun of it, because it was too hard.

Damn dirty Goat.
