I told them not to toy with nature. Now look what they have done.
Comments of the Week is a feature where we scour the front page, community blogs and forums picking out comments. The ones that make you think, the ones that make you laugh and the ones that make you cry (but also laugh), and consolidate them into an entertaining package for the viewing pleasure of you, the Destructoid community.
[Many thanks toLawofThermalDynamicsfor contributing to this week’s comments]
Sean:FromDtoid Cupid: I want to date Alyssa Bereznak thread
Sean:I would like to go out with her because I have money and a nice car and I think she would respond well to those kind of personality traits.
Oh wait, she used to have a jobwriting on the internet?Pass. No geek girls please thanks.
Law:Sean, I’d gladly give Alyssa a date, but she better not be a woman cause that’s a deal breaker.
Law:FromPAX: Eyes on with a bigger, better Assassin’s Creed
Law:Regardless of how you feel about yearly releases, one thing we can all agree on is that cheap games are usually a good thing.
Sean:I agree. Though my bank manager doesn’t see it that way when I attempt to explain to him where all my money went.
Law:FromGamestop sorry for Deus Ex: HR removal, still doing it
Law:One day we’ll have a unified system where all video game companies will work hand in hand with each other to provide a universal system of video game co-distribution and co-development…Until then I guess we’re stuck with Capitalism : (
Sean:Woah woah woah, “unified”? “universal”? Isn’t that the same kind of thinking that went into building Skynet inThe Terminator? Look what happened to that idea.
Law:FromTwo Tetris games exemplify the problem with 3DS gaming
Law:Once I locked myself away in a room. Bottle of cola, music, and a marathon game of Tetris. That’s how you get things done son.
Law:FromSkyrim will fit on one Xbox 360 disc so you’re able to relax now
Law:Yeah okay, superior power, only needs one disc, console wars, blah blah blah, the bottom line is that getting up and switching disc is a litmus test to separate lazy gamers and the simply apathetic.
Sean:Back in the day I hadIndiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantison the Amiga. It came on11discs. You had to swap themconstantly. We will never see those days again.
Sean:Wait, wasn’tGears of War 3cancelled?
Law:FromThis is what vandalism looks like at PAX
Law:I wish played more Metal Gear so that I can make a joke about that, but the comment is already funny in its own right. On a related note, I was at PAX over the weekend and I’m kicking myself for not taking a dump on this toilet…Oh yes, you better believe there would have been pictures.
Sean:FromYou Laugh, You Lose
SeanIn Hader’s defence, both pictures were in the “Wrinkly Things” folder.
Law:…What? You expect anything else?
Sean:FromDriver San Francisco dev defends ‘always on’ DRM
Sean:I can hardly believe these rates! I must be crazy for giving these kind of rates away!
Remember that Ubisoft is from France, home of liberty, equality and fraternity. Bitter irony is bitter.
Law:FromCall of Duty Elite Premium gets priced at $49.99 a year
Law:Or you’ll what? Burn the internet down? I’ll have you know that Sean’s a volunteer fireman so I’d like to see you try!
Sean:FromQuick hands-on with Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer
Sean:One time, a moal came right at me, and I had to kill it with a nife.
Law:I saw that. The moal was liek “Here I am!” and you were like “No way!” and then you stabbed it. Crazy stuff man.
Law:FromEA: Call of Duty’s going to get some ‘real competition’
Law:I literally put this in the “Wut?” section because he sounds so sure of which game will be better yet doesn’t specify. Tell me oh clairvoyant one for I must have missed the memo.[Note: This entry isn’t necessarily bad by any means, it just simply made me say “What?” when reading through it.]
Sean:I can see what Law is saying but I’m going to have to agree with General Zod and say I am totally psyched now thanks to EA’s constant coverage of the upcomingThe Sims 3: Pets.
Sean:FromNamco and Tecmo’s new PS3 game might be One Piece Musou
Sean:Today’s top story: Man has skin-tearing erection, still not sure if he had an erection at all.
Law:FromEA tweaks Origin EULA, makes it sound less like spyware
Law:………………What?
Sean:I for one welcome the added intrusion and hope we have our privacy further invaded. For instance, I can only pee if someone is standing next to me.
Law:FromRedhead FemShep winning Mass Effect 3 box art vote
Law:I don’t think that’s a statement one should make so easily and assuredly. I for one find it sexy to have the universe saved by a woman…er…was that not politically correct enough for anyone?
Sean:Well, Law, since you didn’t append the sentence with “…as long as they also found time to make me a sandwich.” I think you’ll get away with it.
