Seriously some disgusting stuff and I'm surprised the key figures from those Uncharted 3 threads still have the ordacity to post on these forums. We literally got 2 brand new Uncharted threads a day for 2 weeks from these fools around the time Uncharted 3 came out. I'm not talking about regular Uncharted fans here, just those diehard fanboys.
8 out of 10, never forget.
I don't know if we can be that charitable. And in any case, if it's hard to tell the trolls from the genuine posters, then the trolls have won.The Uncharted thing barely counts since almost all of the super ridiculous quotes were people trolling.
Finally read the Denis Dyack thread after seeing it referenced a number of times elsewhere. Two things really stood out in it:
1) The number of bans handed out.
2) The numerous mentions about how Diablo III was "just around the corner" in 2008.
it's just amazing reading in the FFXIII thread how some people where expecting sony to reveal FFVII during the E3
i'm wondering, for how long has the FFVII remake meme have being going on?
Since we saw that FF7 tech demo for PS3?
nice to know no need of being sarcastic
I wasn't really being sarcastic. I can't remember if it started right after that, but I'm pretty sure that tech demo is what led to the never-ending hype that it MUST BE COMING!
That one didn't stem from a particularly notable piece of gaming news. But yes, it was fantastic.*CTRL + F: "moist"*
Fuck is wrong with GAF

which thread are you guys talking about?
At least half of those posts were jokes. Yeah some people flipped a shut for no reason, but it wasn't as bad as some websites made it seemI don't know if we can be that charitable. And in any case, if it's hard to tell the trolls from the genuine posters, then the trolls have won.

Perfect english has never made my bank account rise. Context has. Know what I'm saying?say Hi to the bad guy. THE DREAMERs

Uncharted 8/10 outdid the crazy from TP 8.8. An amazing feat no doubt. Even with that in mind, I cant say its better than Dyack. Dyack was amazing.I'd suggest going back and read the thread in its entirety. No, they weren't.
A small minority may have been, but as someone who has read the thread in order, all 125 odd pages, I'd wager the overwhelming majority were absolutely legitimate. About ninety percent were taken from the point before the thread became aware of how ahem "controversial" it had become, when it was simply an extremely dedicated bunch of enthusiasts praising acceptable scores, and condemning the less palatable ones with viscous, unthinking scorn.
That's why its so scary.
I meant the 3DS junk.
It was so bad that I was banned the day before shit went down.
Nobody's nominated Mega Man Legends 3 getting cancelled yet? I guess maybe there wasn't as huge an explosion as some of the other examples, but still.

Oh Nintendo, Nintendo, Nintendo, when are you guys gonna learn that weird, unique and original doesn't equal good.
You will be missed......
holy shit....i missed that and sat here in tears reading it.
awesome stuff right there....a must read!
Why didn't the RE4 betrayalton make the list? The bitter tears in that thread was quite sweet!
This one was equivalent to getting your heart ripped out and stomped on. I'm not sure if it's quite equivalent to a meltdown. Minimal console warz in the thread and most people were pretty sane, (that I can remember), just the half dozen or so megaman legends fans absolutely destroyed because you can't announce and then cancel a sequel to a long lost cult classic game.
3) E3 '06 Sony Press Conference
This one didn't have ban cullings, nor many meltdowns on a personal level, it was if the entire forum was just rocking back and forth blinking unseeing at the mind-blowingedness, but with inordinate amounts of butt-hurt spin. E3 '06 Sony Press Conference
twilight princess 8.8 was amazing...lol

The Uncharted III thing was exclusively a NeoGAF event though, its a story that began and ended with us. For that reason, personally, I'd elevate it above the Zelda "controversial" review reactions.
