Quote:Hey, in chat you seemed to say that I hadn't said a bunch of things I said. So here are quotes.
Note my only mention of B-K in that response was to say that I don't have it and should get it eventually.
I'm talking about the graphics debate from the other thread.
Quote:Here I say exactly when I got DK64 and exactly how much I have played B-K -- two more facts you seemed surprised by yesterday, yet I have clearly put in this thread in writing days earlier.
I won't bother quoting your responses because they were both about one line long and said nothing. As I said, like usual for the parts of my posts I put the most work into.
You didn't mention that until after you claimed that BK wasn't as impressive-looking as Dk64.
Quote:I go through batteries slowly and my parents buy them for me anyway. No issue there.
I play my SP daily and have to buy my own batteries.
Quote:Look at the two big quotes of mine up there. You did respond before, but on a level that is very, very marginally above the 'didn't respond' category. And you did that in plenty of of other places too.
The fact you were surprised yesterday by the fact that I don't own B-K and that I haven't played it for more than a few hours, two things I'd said days earlier in this thread, says more than I ever needed to know about how you don't actually read my posts.
I read your posts, but they don't always make sense. And you always assume that I know certain details about you (like as if I have a journal detailing everything that you've ever told me). You did not tell me that you only played Banjo for a few minutes until after we had that graphics debate.
Quote:Fine then, we won't talk about B-K's graphics anymore until I get B-K. Which has been my goal for some time in this thread, but you just won't drop it...
You're just as much to blame for this argument continuing.
Quote:So what exactly must I do to have all this incredible knowledge? Bore myself to the point where I'd rather watch paint drying playing all three games three or four times each? As I said, once through is just as good. And as far as talking about stuff like platform-jumping, unless a game takes a dramatic shift partway through, getting well into it can definitely suffice too...
Now with B-K I already admitted I am a bit sketchy, which is why in all my long comparison posts I do not talk about that game... but B-T? I've played that one plenty to see how it works.
I just find this idea that you need extensive knowledge of a lot of games in the genre, more than I have played (though I have played a fair number of games in this genre, which makes your arguement pretty bizarre...), strange.
I have beaten (the final boss of, not collected all items in) Mario 64, Rocket: Robot on Wheels, Donkey Kong 64, Sonic Adventure 2, and Rayman 2... and also have, and have played a fair amount of, Mario Sunshine and Banjo-Tooie.
Oh, and I've played a few other demos/rentals, such as Croc (the PC version, not the PSX version)... now THAT is a 3d platformer with a lot of platform jumping. a REAL lot. Still, its a fun game...
Well of course I have more knowledge on the subject if I've played more of the games than you have! Is that such a difficult concept to understand?
BTW Croc sucks. :shakeit:
