If we all know how IGN is, then I would say that this is fake.

He wasn't in charge for about the last year of the game's development (after Nintendo forced Retro to either go bankrupt or sell themselves for peanuts).

IGN tends to think up some pretty stupid April Fool's jokes, but during the other 364 days of the year, they're fairly reliable. (That is, when they're not using the most piddling of non-holidays as an excuse to slack off.)

Since.. uh..

Lame.

I thinks it's legit news. I thought I saw the headline on gfaqs, linking to gamespot.

Great, just what we need. More ammo Leiberman can use to boycott violent (read: all) videogames.

Metal Mario · 01-23-2004, 02:14 PM

I abhor alcohol. If you live to be a hundred, you'll still never find a good reason to drink.

01-23-2004, 05:07 PM

A single glass of red wine every night or so is good for your heart.

Other than that, I don't think there are any good reasons.

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

I can think of a thousand reasons why I shouldn't drink. *Picks up a bottle of vodka* But I can't think of one right now!

Anyway, ten dollars says Spike TV's going to make this Game of the Year at the 2nd Annual VGAs.

Pixelated breasts just isn't my style.

Fryguy · 01-23-2004, 06:42 PM

Meh. At this rate all media companies will either aim for the lowest common denominator or die off for being too "kiddy".

And hey, I still think this kind of thing is healthier than a game all about realistic shooting and killing, whether it be a war game or not. No-one (worth mentioning) has ever suffered as a result of looking at boobies. Sexist? Yes, but so are posters of boybands with their shirts off.

And as for alcohol - everyone has some kind of outlet. Getting drunk isn't smart, but having a couple of drinks isn't going to hurt anyone.

Let me put this thought into all those brains who watch porno and have no life:

You need a girlfriend.

Metal Mario · 01-23-2004, 08:04 PM

^Does your girlfriend do all the things that a porn star does?

Didn't think so.

Cap'n Boo from Timbuktu · 01-23-2004, 08:12 PM

Not everybody can get a girlfriend. Those who can't still have a libido to contend with. Me, I just drink my sex-drive into submission, but I can't fault those who've chosen the less liver-destroying path of pornography. They'll live longer, and they'll save themselves a lot of cash in the long run (hey, you can't drink the same booze twice).

No.

Metal Mario · 01-23-2004, 09:03 PM

One of the problems with our politically correct society is that men are constantly being scolded for being men. Our naturally-instilled feelings and lusts are labelled as "bad" by a society full of feminists who will gladly sue you for even looking at them out of your peripheral vision. This is why men get so frustrated and uptight about things like sex. Because we're no longer allowed to express our desires in the way that nature intended. Already, many people in this topic have labeled pornography as something exclusively for lame, pathetic losers with no life or girlfriend, but that's not true at all. On the contrary, it's a safe and private way for a man to relieve himself, and I think you'll all agree that it's much more preferable than going out and raping someone.

No doubt about it.
