I mean, how is that even possible?
This post is in response to some retard's post about Drake's Fortune being the "Holiest of Holies". Not only that, but the damn blog post gets dugg to the front page? What is it, the pretty picture at the top?
Centipede and Asteroids are _real_ video games. I enjoy sucking at Halo because a mouse and keyboard is infinitely better for FPS games. I've enjoyed a good competitive game of Street Fighter, DOA, Starcraft, or whatever over the years. I currently have sitting next to each other my PS3, 360 and Wii, with a dustier shelf of Nintendo and Playstation Systems below.
Blakes Retarded Game sucks so much. It's just not fun to play.
First, let's talk about "Uncanny Valley".
"This area of repulsive response aroused by a robot with appearance and motion between a "barely-human" and "fully human" entity is called the uncanny valley. The name captures the idea that a robot which is "almost human" will seem overly "strange" to a human being and thus will fail to evoke the empathetic response
required for productive human-robot interaction."
Blakes Unfortune = Uncanny Valley. Yeah sure the graphics are good for what we've seen on PS3 so far. But that's freakin' depressing.
Next, the story.
Seriously, wtf?
Two parachutes, one chick, one guy, jumping out of a plane. "You go, I'll just pilot this plane for another minute so we can split up for the story's sake." And then dudes just start shooting at you? Why the sh!t are they hanging out in the middle of the jungle path just waiting to run into you? It doesn't make sense. And also, sweet Gears of War health system. Like I'll just remember to hide behind some boxes next time I'm shot until I get better. OGOD SOMEONE HELP THE PS3 AND IT'S GAMES STOP SUCKING.
And finally, the controls. Perhaps I'm completely spoiled by Halo 3. Whatever. For some reason, the sixaxis and I have never clicked. Maybe it's because it never f*ckin turns off? Maybe because it's always motherlovin' howied out of batteries?
Possibly.
The end result is that the right analog stick just feels goofy. Drake certainly looked cool jumping over stuff, almost as cool as Chow Yun Fat sliding over g.d. every g.d. thing in bullet time in Stranglehold, another really awesome PS3 game... not.
The end result, my faithful readers, is that unless you have a 60" Sony SXRD HDTV and have bought the PS3 for Bluray, you've wasted money.
And wtf are idiots doing posting on digg? Sure, I'll post this to digg, but I hope for howie's sake that it's not front paged.
Because this is my freakin' opinion, not fact.
It's like this guy works for freakin Sony. The PS3 is and will continue to be a POS for video games.
I'm hopeful about Little Big Planet, but I'm not holding my breath.
