A bold social experiment

Metal Mario · 03-20-2010, 01:33 AM

Let me just start off by saying that I don't care for the Beatles; I think the Metroid Prime games are much more fun than any other Metroid game; and I think Sean Penn, while a talented actor, is basically a despicable human being.

Those are three opinions of mine.

**Valigarmander** · 03-20-2010, 01:43 AM

I forget who Sean Penn is, so I'm okay with this.

Metal Man · 03-20-2010, 01:47 AM

How dare you think Metroid Prime games are that good?

They're even better than that! They're better than all games ever made before or after them! ARGHHHHH!!!!!

I can already tell this thread is destined for great things.

Metal Mario · 03-20-2010, 01:50 AM

^Aye, it may be. It may be.

ZeldaGirl · 03-20-2010, 01:51 AM

I like the Beatles, but they aren't my favorite band ever (and nor are they close to being so), I don't play any Metroid games that often, and I think Sean Penn is both an incredible actor and a giant douche.

I'm pretty sure you and I are on different wavelengths here.

I think I see where this is going.

Metal Mario, maybe you should state your intentions before it veers horribly.

Metal Man · 03-20-2010, 02:02 AM

His intentions, are to build this city on rock n' roll.

***Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds*** · 03-20-2010, 02:07 AM

I think most of what the Beatles did was ****, with an handful of possibly awesome, catchy songs, but I respect their important influence on music and their social implications.

The Metroid Prime games were a great adaptation for Metroid in both 3D and a first-person perspective. I don't think they did "Metroid" better than Super Metroid, but they were still excellent games (Sky Town and the Steam Bots and Steam Lord, COME ON

).

I have no idea who Sean Penn is, so I don't care.

Those are opinions of mine on the original three subjects.

Panfan · 03-20-2010, 07:57 AM

Half of the Beatles' career was just some basic pop and stuff, they got better as they progressed (read: started taking drugs). I probably like 200 bands more than I like the Beatles.

can't touch super metroid, but i'd say i like prime more than the other games

also i've seen like one sean penn movie ever

Dylan · 03-20-2010, 08:18 AM

What the Beatles did was genius: Take ordinary pop music to get everyone's attention, then twist it around, progressing over time into a new style of music that blew everyone away. "Sgt. Pepper's" and "Abbey Road" are two of my favorite albums, just straight up musical genius.

The Beatles are overrated, though that doesn't mean I don't think they were great. The Metroid Prime games were awesome, but most days I probably prefer Super Metroid. Sean Penn is a good actor, and I don't know anything about his politics except that I hear conservatives hate him.

No, this is a bold social experiment:

Those are three opinions of mine.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Eagle Eye · 03-20-2010, 01:38 PM

That's not bold, that's just attention-consuming.

Maximum Spider · 03-20-2010, 01:41 PM

I'd much rather listen to the Beatles than anything that they call music these days.

I think the Metroid Prime games are great, but I thinkl Super Metroid is better.

I don't really care about Sean Penn, really.

Metal Man · 03-20-2010, 02:19 PM

Somehow I think Metal Mario's experiment backfired. Instead of generating rage over his opinions, it caused people to share their own in a civil manner.

I REALLY HATE POKEMON! · 03-20-2010, 02:53 PM

^ I'm sure his intentions weren't as devious as that. He was likely suggesting that his opinions put him at a disadvantage socially. I can relate there, as my opinins and interests contradict the norm.

CuccoLady · 03-20-2010, 03:02 PM

Beatles Rock Band is fun because of the vocal harmonies, but I can honestly live without the band, and I have for quite some time. :{)

Metroid Prime is win.

Dunno who that dude is.
