*Edit- I try to add stuff and like to see what others are playing/enjoying but I would have to agree that some people (read people, not just any one person) get carried away berating others with dissimilar tastes in gaming, but that seems to be a common theme in this forum, unfortunately. Just swap out comic or movie or cartoon for game. I have varied taste in gaming. I love bats**t crazy games, I love FPS, I love adventure games, I love sidescroller shoot'em ups, I love good, story driven games, I WANT to love more platformers, but my lousy jumping abilities prevent me from doing so, lol. But it is almost a guarantee that if I love a game, my husband will hate it. It is also a guarantee that if my hubby loves a game, I probably won't like it much. We just have different gaming tastes, we don't fault each other's choices. When he finds a really great JRPG and plays it for hours on end "farming" a boss, I'm happy for him- because he is enjoying the game. Could I sit there and do it? No, it would be like pulling teeth to me. (Please note that I'm not saying JRPGs are bad, I love a lot about them, but as a general rule, they just aren't my thing)

My point is, you can think someone's choice is ridiculous and they have bad taste and that's fine, that's your opinion just as it is their opinion that a game is great. But we really do need to be respectful of people enjoying a game we might not like. That's what gaming is supposed to be about anyway- enjoying the experience. Unless it's Superman for N64, then it's about rings. Lots and lots of rings.
