Video Games - a general discussion thread

Yeah... And I'd also like to play Ocarina of Time in ALttP style... But I seriously doubt Nintendo would ever want' to make new versions of every Zelda game.

Like I said, if any Zelda game needs a remake it's the second one. There is so much that could be done with that forumal better on the GBA or DS, and we could finally get a straight answer on whether the Sleeping Zelda is the Zelda from LoZ, or the hypothetical "Ancient Zelda"

What does this forum have to do with the entertainment industry as a whole?

Okay, let me make this clear: I'm tired of being jacked around by the entertainment industry. It's not just George Lucas anymore. It's Peter Jackson raping Lord of the Rings while at the same time glorifying how "close" he was to "Tolkien's spirit." It's some new company making a crappy-ass version of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe for Cartoon Network (a version which thankfully bombed). It's Nintendo putting out more and more Legend of Zelda games that get increasingly worse.


1.What changes has Jackson "raped" into the LotR Movies. I was unaware that there were any different versions, just extended editions on DVD...

2.He-man has allways sucked. Nobody wants to watch a blonde guy in fetish garb fight evil

3.You say "increasing worse" as if Zelda sucked to begin with. So what if not every game is as good a ALttP or OoT? The Oracles were nearly flawless, Wind Waker was better than Majora's Mask, and this new GC Zelda looks to be amazing!

The worst part of all is that every time this happens, there's always people who will turn around and try to pretend that raping our cultural heritage and our childhood is somehow a GOOD thing.


Actually all I hear is people complaining. I've not heard one word of praise for the new He-man show, and was completely unaware the LotR films had been messed with.

The new show "Loonatics"--a superhero version of Looney Tunes--is yet another way the entertainment industry is dicking with us. Right now there are a lot of people who are talking about how much it will suck. What do you want to bet that those exact same people will turn around and praise it on release, even going so far as to try and claim it's somehow better than what it's based on? JUST LIKE how some people on this very forum knew the Star Wars DVDs were going to suck but went ahead and bought them anyway.


The Starwars DVDs aren't perfect, but they hardly suck. The transfer is excellent... Ok.. so, otherwise they were a bit lackluster. As for Lunatics.. I'd not heard of it, but I guess I'd agree. Taking characters out of their element sort of destroys why the were popular to begine with.

Screw this, and screw the entertainment industry. Thankfully most of the stuff I love is available on DVD in unbutchered form, and I can live without the stuff that isn't--including Star Wars.

I think I'm going to go watch Transformers: The Movie and remember what "Entertainment" used to mean...


Maybe you need to get out more...
