" @Landon said:Well, ya know, fight fire with marshmallows is what I always say." A. The Room B. Ico DUUERRP, WIZ ONE IS DA ARTY ONE?!!???11///!?! "Showed him. That's exactly like what he did. This is intelligent and not at all fool passion completely devoid of context. He says compare Huck Finn to any game and you pick the best worst movie and compare it to a slog of an art game and follow up with some swell all caps internet speak to really drill it home. "Take us seriously" is what I get from this. "

I voted vidjya games beause Huck Finn is plodding and offensively written. Not racially offensive, but it's a sad excuse for "good" writing.
" @jakob187 said:It means that if someone put a video game...even Vagrant Story (my favorite game of all time)...and Huck Finn in front of me, and they said "choose"..." Also, I would vote Huck Finn. Sorry, folks...but no video game is better than Huck Finn. "What does that even mean? "
...I would pick Huck Finn. That book is fucking phenomenal, and Mark Twain in general was a literary genius.
I don't understand the survey. Is he asking me whether I'd rather read Huckleberry Finn or play a great video game? Is he asking which is objectively better? Is he asking me which I'd rather delete from existence?
The question makes no sense.
" @clubsammich: He's played games live on TV. Youtube it. Presuming something without doing any kind of fact checking, hmm there's a word for that. Pom...pie? No. Pampo? No. Oh its on the tip of my tongue, Bill Hicks would know... "His point is weak but the issue stands. Playing games on TV doesn't make Ebert qualified to be a games journalist, just as if Jeff Gerstmann watched a movie his opinion of said movie wouldn't be held in the same standing as Ebert's. Ebert's comparison is weak and invalid.
