Tomonobu Itagaki Interview (TeamXbox)

[dog$]

Totally.

I come here expecting to converse with people who have at least half of a functioning brain-cell so that they could define what makes things "fun" and I get emoticons in reply.

ps: You keep getting hung up on the words "the best". Exchange the phrase with "worth talking about", or "worth playing", or "worth giving a damn about", whatever. You're still the one telling me that I can't understand you, despite your insistence in giving me no information to analyze in the first place.

It goes against my policy to save room for future downloads when you have the ability to put it in the game now, just to charge people extra. I would rather give everything I can now, in the actual game

Apparently, gameplay = future pay download.

Fun is the sum total of how each part of a game responds to you. Happy? A single element of a game can make a game far more enjoyable to some than to others. So that is why people like to say the like a game because it is "fun". They aren't reviewing a game so why should they bother to analyse it?

[MVS]

Post that again in English, please.

So when you tell me that you like a game for it being "fun", my reaction is that you're using the word "fun" in an attempt to conceal your ignorance and lack of ability to truly define what it is that you like about the game.

This is absolute fact. The only substantive backing I have heard from the DoA fans is that it is easy for their non-gamer friends to pick up and play. That's like saying that bobbing in the water is a great swimming style because people with no arms or legs can do it.

Fun != Good

Gee MarkRyan, thanks for bringing this topic back up, our forum was sorely lacking discussion on this topic. Now the same 5 or 6 people can repeat themselves endlessly!

I might happen to think it's fun to bury cats in the ground neck-up and go mow the lawn.
Hitler thought it was fun to shishkabob and roast Jews.

WTF man...calm down

Last time I read TNL, there was this really long thread where the same five people either complained about or text-fellated Tomonobu Itagaki. I'm pretty sure there was another one the time before that. Do you guys just make a new one every morning?

In this spirit, I propose the "Heated Discussions About Tomonobu Itagaki" forum. This way classic posts such as "DOA is shit I hate Itagaki let's talk about him some more that fuck I hope he dies so i can make a thread about it" and "DOA is Jesus pls to let me fuck big hero rock star Itagaki so i can make a thread about it" can be archived for easy access and used as valuable support in the next heated discussion about Tomonobu Itagaki.

Beh, I'd rather have a flood of Itagaki topics instead of Sales Chart threads or 1,001 Nintendo Themes.

SHAT YAW MOUF!

Constant Itagaki fandom vs anti-fandom "discussion" gives TNL "character"...
