"The current trend for using colons isn't good news either."

I think Cub!st would disagree.

Mr. Turpin (I shall call him 'Dick' from now on as it's more appropriate... and you can turn 'Turpin' into 'Turnip', so Dick Turnip it is...) clearly hasn't thought his article through.

"At the moment I'm playing a Japanese football game called Winning Eleven. Ok, so translation can be blamed for that, but the European version of the game is Pro Evolution Soccer - which actually makes less sense. What on earth is that supposed to mean?"

Well, duh!

Think about it, Dick - it's a Professional Evolution of the Soccer game genre - i.e. more realistic than any other.

Yeeees.... weeell....

I was talking about the biological colon because Cub!st likes to 'pot the brown' so-to-speak. ;)

Or does he get 'potted'? He never really answered that question.

Anyway.

Premier League Soccer: Underground sounds awesome.

And lame.


I tend to agree with him. Video game names are a bit wanky. Can I say that?

What a complete and utter idiot.

Since when do you ever buy a game based on it's name? His article is so wrong, flawed and spasticated in so many ways, it's unbelievable.

The ame could be said about Movies - there are tonnes with names that don't give you any idea as to what the movie is about.

At least his email address is at the bottom, so feel free to spam him to death :D

What was wrong with stuff like Call of Duty? (Particularly compared to the other names he said were actually good). Also, do we have a problem with Metal Gear Solid? I always thought that sounded quite cool. As for Final Fantasy... he should really think that one through before posting that kind of trash.
