Zelda III is by far the best Zelda game and Nintendo has never come close to topping the SNES. In fact in many ways they've been getting worse and worse.

League of Legends is a video game for people who are bad at video games. I lol when I think about how many dummies are out there that spent large sums of money for a serious gaming computer and spend all of their time playing a (mostly) 2D game that only needs four buttons and a mouse to play.

i feel like lol and dota2 have really poisoned the well on anything called a "multiplayer online arena" now and that's a shame because what i picture in my head when i hear those words is way cooler than loving LoL

I brought all my friend who love LoL to heroes of the Storm, they all agree it's better because it's more laid back and their are interesting maps.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

the single player campaigns in the modern warfare trilogy were a better overall gaming experience than multiplayer. battlefield 3 as well

Ocarina of Time is the only good Zelda game and is the best JRPG of all time

Skyrim is best played vanilla with no mods

98% of the best games ever made were produced before 1997

I really hate ppl using JRPG to stand for an action RPG made in Japan

Lets all be serious for a moment: JRPG means Dragon Quest style game. An RPG where you pick commands off of a command list instead of being real time pause, an action rpg, turn based strategy, or what have you

What interesting ideas. I would posit that 98% of the best games ever made were produced since the mid 2000s, and the last few years have been watershed years in gaming and gaming acceptance into culture.

Games got bad in 2006 after GTA and Gears blew up and everyone in the US wouldnt stop making open world garbage games or over the shoulder cover shooters. This was the same time period where Japan was in a complete rut and made, like, nothing at all.

new no-no. persona 5 was fun but I couldn't finish it since the game dragged on and the plot was retarded. not as bad a persona 4 where the characters only solved the mystery due to the villains being dumb though.

Theres a lot of good games from that period but saying 98% of good games were made after mid 2000 is insane!!!! The "good" period of video gaming only started up again a few years ago!

they were dumb but they were dumb like good action movies are dumb. and the first time i played No Russian might never be unthroned as the most shocking and gut-wrenching gaming experience of my life

e: thats edging into popular opinions though. the point is that single player mw2>multiplayer mw2

I loved the free-roam activities like getting hostages out of buildings, the EDF comes and starts blowing chunks out of the building and it becomes a hectic gunfight with structures blowing up around me.

I didn't like how the second one had you fighting against dumbass aliens.

Remember when Microsoft bundled the Kinect with the Xbox One and basically destroyed any sort of market lead they had made with the 360. That was kinda funny.
