Quoted from NPO:People need to get over this "Oh mmmmmmmmmmmmmmaaannn, it's made by Daitah EEEEEEASSSSSSTTTT" crap.
Where does this huge chubby for B/W come from? Is it the fact that all the "oo oo oo gimmie gimmie gimmie A-Title!!!"
I'm serious dude, I'm going on 2 DE's/1 Sega (XF when it gets here),
Nothing wrong with coming out strong on your thoughts & your opinions, & I appricaite it. It is a little spastic, but I like an opinion piece.
What I will tell you about my DE "bashing" comes from my personal opinion on playing a ton of pins over the last 20+ years. I worked at an arcade and played pinball every day for years and years.....all differernt kinds. The "love" for W/B comes from their games "feeling" a ton better than DE games, always have, always will. DE have always felt more clunky, and the art is usually worse. I'll always take plastic ramps over Metal ramps too.
Your original post seems to only be skewed to owning/working on pins, not playing them. The problem is, I don't think most people talk about how they break all the time do they? The usually complain the titles aren't as good as B/W.
I understand your point, and I think their probably is a small amount of "go along with the herd" mentality when it comes to this subject, but just make sure you don't stick your neck out too far about it. I like a couple DE just fine. GNfR, JP, LAH, all fun games. But they are a lower tier to me. Then Sega came around.
Take the XF for example, now that is just a brutaly horrible machine. Would I rather have an XF over a JM, another title I think is just pathetic? Being even I'd take a JM I guess. What does that have to do with anything? No idea...blood sugar low...gotta eat something.
