How so?

You have people like HandomeDead. There were others in a few other threads but I don't remember the name.

I've only seen it happen once and hopefully it doesn't become a common occurence. Props on the Lupe pic. BEST RAPPER ALIVE"
Ah, someone with some knowledge.
I changed it to the Gears of War poster for a little though.

As of me posting this, they are in the 70's. Anyone else think that Half Life being number 93 is blasphemy? To rub salt on that would, number 92 is WWF No Mercy for the N64, and 91 is an old madden game. In fact, there are WAY to many wrestling games on the list. Eternal Darkness at 86 is also a shame in my eyes, as is Golden Sun being above Chrono Cross. Now, I've never played Chrono Cross, so I hate my self for saying that, but Golden Sun is not your stand out RPG title. Further salt in my wounds is Shadow of the Colossus being only at 70, being bested by the second meh Golden Sun game. Then there is 76, Paper Mario 2, and 75, Tales of Symphonia. ToS was nothing in comparison to PM2.
Hopefully the list improves, unfortunately, I don't think IGN readers have the best taste.

So in other words.
People don't have the same opinion as me, therefore they fail.
If you like a game, does it matter? Are you going to like Half Life any less because it's number 93? If it does, I feel bad for you. Mass Effect and Halo 3 have been bashed so much and those are my favorite games this gen. I don't let anyone else's opinion affect mine.
Yeah, I didn't mean the first one. Probably worded it wrong.
I meant ME2 and ME3. Don't say "Zomg why would they do that? it makes no sense to release the rest of the games without the previous installment(s)" because Devil May Cry 4 is on 360, RE5 is going to be on 360, Saints Row 2 is on PS3 even though the first one was not.
Does that mean Mass Effect and the rest of the trilogy has a chance of being on PS3?
I have all consoles so don't say "ZOMG BUY A 360 IF YOU WANNA PLAY IT!" (I know I can get it on PC but I would have to build a PC from scratch and it would probably cost more than im willing to pay) because now it doesn't seem like such a crazy idea because BioWare had never released a game on a Sony console and now they are.
"In terms of MLG itself, I don't like it as a competition as a whole. It's not just MLG, or even all about MLG, I just tend to have gaming leagues in general. They outlaw tactics, weapons, upgrades, and other gameplay elements, whitewash the level selection, and essentially turn the game into a ridiculously sterile version of what it once was. I'd be fine with a league that accepted reasonably balanced games and then just let players fly; but they are way too restrictive, and I refuse to support them because of that."
It makes it more skill based. You might not agree or like it but it does.
Halo 3 on ESPN Saturday Night or Championship Sunday would be boring as fuck if there was power drains and all the other equipment that aid you in kills. With MLG it's just you and your teammates. I don't know about other competitive leagues, but there is a reason why they do this whether you agree with it or not. I can play with both competitive rules or default rules so it doesn't matter to me. If you've played with MLG rules you know their is more dependance on your team than in regular matchmaking and I would imagine other competitive leagues are the same. I've won countless games in regular Halo 3 MM by myself. I have had all my teammates quit on me leaving me at a huge disadvantage. I'll just go grab a shotty/gravity hammer with a bubble shield and camp somewhere. It's beneficial because while they walk around, if they are close they show up on my radar but I won't show up on theirs.
Only people that hate MLG are just nerds who only play single player games and think they're better than people who play multiplayer games. They're just as ignorant as people who think their race is better than someone else's race.
"I was under the impression that Microsoft still had a stake in Bungie."
Microsoft basically has first dibs on publishing rights.
Oh and another thing. Can people stop asking if Halo will be on PS3? The answer is no and will most likely be no forever. The only reason Microsoft might even allow Halo to be on a PS3, let alone a Sony console, is when Halo is completely dead and becomes nothing. (similar to Mortal Kombat, Crash Bandicoot, etc)
"I just like the fact that every 360 troll (not every 360 user, most of you guys are cool) hates every ps3 exclusive - but as soon as its multi, becomes the biggest fanboy of it ever!!
How many people hated final fantasy with a passion, until it could be used as forum flame bait??
"
I wish all PS3 exclusives were on 360. I would really love to play games like Killzone 2, MGS4 and WKC on 360. I already have a PS3 but I prefer the 360 over it. None of my friends have a PS3 and most games are boring when you play with people you don't know.
But what can you do? Fanboys will always be ignorant and annoying. I found it best to just laugh and read another thread.
What I hate is how everyone assumes Microsoft paid for these games that were once Sony exclusives. Do you think it could just be the fact that they know they can make more money by also making their game available on the 360? If Wii had hardware like PS3/360 most of these games would be on the Wii aswell.
I'm not saying they didn't buy any but why throw out the possibility that developers saw that they can make even more money by selling their game on 360 and PS3 instead of just PS3?
