Jeff just crossed the line. I can no longer tolerate this.

Jeff hates Red Dead? Alright, it's one of my favorite games of this gen, but whatever, to each his own. Jeff hates the movie Aliens? Alright, you're losing me, I gotta admit, but whatever...I can understand someone disliking that movie.

But...this? This is over the line. OVER THE FUCKING LINE.

(I'm basing this off the distant memory that Jeff once referred to DMB in a negative context, if I am wrong about that, please ostracize me)

You know.. There's good reason why I don't use Spotify. I don't give a flying-fuck what what the Giant Bomb staff thinks about music, but I like that Jeff 'introduced me to ..I forgot what. It might take me months to remember, some hardcore band with a pink cover.

So, I like that Macklemore album a bit. I think I used to like Dave Matthews' at some point. So, this stuff doesn't bother. And I love me some Red Dead, GTA, and Aliens. It just doesn't bother me.

Ehh Jeff hates half the shit I like. Doesn't really matter to me.

Also what exactly does it mean now that he's "crossed the line"? Do you hate him now? Can't you no longer take him seriously? Or is this simply a statement that ultimately means nothing?

Macklemore is cool, but remember Jeff comes from the era of Snoop, Dre, and the Wu. I can totally see how someone a little older may not enjoy the more modern style of Mack's music. Hell I love Action Bronson, but do I think everyone should? Certainly not. Also DMB sucks, sorry :(

Jeff is almost a professional hater. I feel like the only things recently he has liked is Trackmania ("ironically"), Borderlands 1 (but not 2), Fast 5, and... that's about it?

He doesn't praise things very often. To his credit, though, he agrees with me in disliking stuff that's terrible but everyone loves like Final Fantasy VII and Zelda 64... so... I still like him.

That's impressive considering he gave Ocarina of Time a 10 and has said several times it is one of the greatest games of all time.

Quite the feat.

Also calling that game terrible is the most hilarious thing. Even if you don't enjoy it. It was an astounding game when it came out. And it still holds up really well on the 3DS. And Jeff is right to have praised it so highly.

EDIT: And if @jazgalaxy is actually referring to Majora's Mask, he should have specified. I still really enjoyed MM but it wasn't nearly as good as Ocarina of Time.

That makes perfect sense. Also, no one calls Majora's Mask Zelda 64.

I could write a 10 page essay on why Ocarina of Time is a terrible, terrible zelda game, and in many ways a poor game overall.

Basically it has to do with the fact that most of the design decisions that went into the game were a result of Miyamoto being scared people wouldn't be able to play games in 3D, which set the design trend for the decline of Nintendo software. It's why Zelda, one of the greatest hack and slash games of all time, became Ocarina of Time: the greatest hiding, waiting, and blocking games of all time.

@blu3v3nom07: Wow.. Thanks for the knowledge. That was awful. DMB kinda sucks too.

Overall I probably disagree with a majority of Jeff's opinions. I appreciate his experience and his honesty when dealing with his audience though so I'm happy to continue disagreeing with him.

Maybe you're right. I can't remember. I just remember him saying recently that he coudn't care less abotu Zelda games and that they hadn't been good since they went 3d. I thought he was including Zelda 64 in that.

I think the comparison he's making is really ambiguous and mostly wrong, but -- yeah -- Macklemore sucks. I typically agree with Jeff on things; he does have a slightly skewed and more tolerable taste in music than me, though (I hate Ska).

Also, out of all the Giant Bomb staff, his Twitter feed is the worst, even though he's one of the most amusing of the crew. Don't listen to it.
