SaiFAIL '08 nominations

[SonicTempest]

Updated the first post. Six confirmed nominees!

#3) The Xbox 360's Red Ring of Death - the idea that your $400.00 console has a 33% chance of just dying out of the blue is ridiculous. Yeah, they extended the warranty but what happens when it breaks after those three years? New systems have had their technical issues but this oversight is totally unacceptable. Make a product that's going to fucking work.

#4) Sony using the PS3 as a pawn in the next gen DVD wars - Don't force your bloody Blu-Ray player down my throat just because I want to play videogames. This mandatory inclusion and it's resulting price increase show Sony's total lack of respect for it gamer customers. Up yours, Sony....

Seconded'd.

I nominate Kaze no Stigma. What a poor excuse for an anime. A waste of time and bandwidth. Don't even bother googling or wikiing it. It's that bad.

At least nominate Gonzo.

But Gonzo made Seto no Hanayome... =(

But then I guess it wasn't the animation that made that series watchable.

I am afraid that after the latest news, i have to second SF4.

As for my own nomination, mmh:

1) Nintendo 1st party games. Specifically, how they become more and more insultingly easy as time goes on. I myself used to be quite a Nintendo fan, and i remember loving the challenge of Super Mario games. And now, i fall asleep while playing the latest Zeldas;

2) Moe, not as a style in itself, but as a vehicle to sell a product deprived of other qualities to clueless otaku.

2nd Moe.

And I nominate Symantec Endpoint Protection (their new antivirus product, which sux donkey ass and breaks whichever PC it goes on)

[Gojira]

2nd Symantec anything. All thier products do is create a sucking black hole on your harddrive.

[Kyosuke Kagami]

3rd Symantec crap ;3

[Anti-K']

4th for Gonzo.

[Apathy Wind]

I'd also like to nominate the artwork used in the victory quotes for Neo Geo Battle Coliseum - ugghh the characters all look so horrible

3rd moe as cheap tool.

[SonicTempest]

I figure I should nominate/second some things too.

Here are my nominees:
1) The RIAA and MPAA - for continuing to sue college students while clinging to an irrelevant business model
2) Sonic Team - for continuing to willfully ignore good game design principles to pander to the idiot fans
3) Console fanboys - stop arguing about whose dick is bigger and just buy the ones that have the games you want, you twats

And I second the noms for red rings of death, Blu-ray, Kevin McCullough and NGBC win artwork.

We are nominating moe as a cheap tool to sell anime, kinda like Eli Roth using gore to sell Hostel when it's crap, not moe the concept.

[Sheba]

So we can nominate mecha anime as a cheap mean to sell toys? >=D

[r3v3n4nT]

I second Console fanboys.

And I second the noms for red rings of death, Blu-ray, Kevin McCullough and NGBC win artwork.

and finally! Someone who knows the failness of Kevin.
