That is funny. I need to catch up on my US pop trivia. Last time I watched TV was in 2003, so I've missed out on all the CSI fagotry. Though I did recently watch all of Big Bang Theory, which was awesome, but via torrent.

On the subject of The Ghetto morons -- I skimmed their latest posts, it's just not worth it anymore. I get a headache just looking at it. And lol at the weasel moron backtracking on his authorities (and everything else for that matter). Poor Rousseau and the rest of them: just look at the kind of advocates they earned for themselves through their insufferable moralizing: little backpedalling fuckfaces who are not even men enough to stand by what they wrote in their previous fucking post.

I banned Masahiro for his second post on the Ghetto. It's even more autistic than all the shit everyone else has been posting for fuck's sake. Pure autistic hatred with asinine bullshit reasoning and the diction of a first-year English-as-a-second-language student from Angola. Everyone on that forum perfectly deserves each other.

The orgy of resentment is still going strong on The Ghetto. In the latest episode the subhumans are trying to rationalize away their blatant obsession with me with an assortment of little stupidities and lies. "Why is the largest thread ever in this clearly Insomnia-wannabe site devoted to icy?"

http://www.the-ghetto.org/forums/index. ... 1#msg25041

-Well, it took several months to get this long. (I.e. their obsession with me is not temporary, but is a chronic condition that has developed over a long period of time.)

-Well, much of it is not about icy but about Nietzsche. (Of whom they wouldn't even be talking, or even possibly HAVE HEARD OF, if not for me.)

-But there's dozens of us and just one of him. (lol yeah, which proves how far more important than any one of you I am, or even all of you taken together.)

The coup de grace comes right here:

Fuguist wrote:Yeah, it always cracks me up whenever he tries to act cultured. Didn't he refer to French New Wave as the progenitor of Natural Born Killers? lololol


... where the subhuman first puts HIS OWN STUPID WORDS in my mouth and then LAUGHS AT THEM (i.e. at himself), on top of betraying that he has no idea what the term "cultured" means. Cultured means POWERFUL, dumbass. It has nothing to do with your hipster's idea of culture, where the "cultured" person is some moron who can list random trivia about artworks that no one could ever possibly care about (which is precisely the kind of idea of culture of which Baudrillard said "I spit on it" -- i.e. he spits on you and everyone who acts and thinks like you). I AM CURRENTLY THE MOST CULTURED PERSON ON THE PLANET, just as Baudrillard was the most cultured person of the 20th century, and Nietzsche of the 19th. The fact that you are laughing at the 21st century's greatest philosopher, on the other hand, is a reflection of YOUR EXTREMELY LOW LEVEL OF CULTURE, your ignorance, lack of education, intelligence and experience with life, which betrays itself with every pathetic little line you scribble in that worthless little forum, that no one, not even you yourself, ends up remembering a few weeks or even days down the line (a fact which reflects precisely their weakness, for if anything you had ever thought of and said was cultured, i.e powerful enough, it would have been remembered and abundantly quoted, as so many of the passages I've written down are and have been. Which is why I am somebody, and you are, and will forever remain, a nobody).

The Ghetto moron locked the thread because he finally managed to realize that no one on his forum was capable of not posting stupidities. This was the real reason he locked it. The professed reason was that you can't discuss the latest Stephen King book without buying it, and neither can you discuss the ones you've already read, hence there shouldn't be any unlocked threads on Stephen King in any forum anywhere.

I wonder how he manages to get dressed in the morning without help. Or perhaps he has some.

lol, for like a week there are two absolutely amazing new philosophical essays on the frontpage and not a single soul signs up. Then I post a couple of shitty game reviews (they are not shitty reviews, they are perfect, but compared to my essays that people will still be reading 50 or 100 years from now they are indeed worthless) and the very next moment two new people sign up. You kids are pathetic lol. But I guess my stuff has to go around a few million pathetic kids in order eventually for them to reach a couple of proper people.

By far the best place to discuss Insomnia outside of Insomnia. (And certainly better than the Casual forum, because it's actually moderated.)

He's just a little wild and completely tired of dealing with bullshit of any kind.

If he's going to shut out guys like me to avoid the riffraff, more power to him.

And here's the new Insomnia thread on the Ghetto (didn't take them very long, despite the Ghetto moron's claim that you cannot discuss what you have to pay to read, or what you haven't even read -- wrong on both counts, fuckface!):

http://www.the-ghetto.org/forums/index.php?topic=2041.0

lol at the Ghetto moron threatening to lock the thread "so fast you'd think it was Insomnia", having failed to realize that I never really lock threads here because I am not an incompetent moderator like himself whose forum is filled with interminably shrieking fucktards who have to have their mouths stopped on a regular basis. And, as usual of course, the thread is filled with the worst kind of idiocies, smarmishness, posing and resentment. Everything icy says is either obviously wrong or self-evident, nothing is original, links to Wikipedia pages on philosophy, semantics do not matter, theory is pointless, etc. etc. And what have they explained or deconstructed in that thread, after two pages and several thousand words? Absolutely nothing. And guess whose writings people will be reading on this subject a few years or decades hence?

That's right.

Now it' back to your shitty thread and your raging resentment for you again.

Lots of good quotes in this one:

http://archive.no-ip.org/v/thread/74968182

All right, which one of you geniuses wrote this article? Everything from the writing style, to the form of the arguments, to the impenetrable walls of vitriol hurled at artfags is utterly brilliant. Thanks for linking this in the last "artgames" thread:

http://insomnia.ac/commentary/on_the_ge ... art_games/

...it's the greatest parody of /v/irgin idiocy I've ever seen! The way he squeezes "artfag" into every other sentence, the way he spends 15,000 words ranting at them instead of actually talking about video games, the way he puts everything on a linear scale of quality leaving no room for subjectivity or opinion... it's all so perfect.

I especially love the mixture of nostalgiafaggotry and elitism in his analysis of art history. I can just imagine him trolling a 1920's-era 4chan, sagebombing /paint/ and screaming CASUAAAAAAAALS every time an expressionism thread pops up. Or maybe visiting /auto/ and talking about how carfags just don't have the skill to ride or appreciate a good horse. Oh man.

It just doesn't let up. When he condemned the elitism of the artfags and then segued immediately into an explanation of how only the most enlightened connoiseurs can recognize the great works of a medium (he, of course, being capable of recognizing the great works of EVERY medium), I almost lost it.

His closing line is just icing on the cake: "[the difficulties which photography caused traditional aesthetics were mere child's play as compared to those raised by the film] ... which in their turn are mere child's play compared to those raised by videogames -- but thankfully for you, dear readers, it just so happens that there's a real philosopher around today to solve them for you!"

Thankfully for us, indeed. I haven't read anything this funny in months.


I like that guy, though.
He makes good points, is literate , educated, and is interesting to read.

Sorry, I cant agree with you, fellow anonymous.


There's lots of great little touches, too. Convenient Wikipedia links to obscure artists and complicated terms he uses (preadaptation? WHAT'S THAT?) to help his plebian readership along, referring to them as 'we' the whole time. The fact that he calls himself Kierkegaard. His admission that Pauline Kale is "pretty smart for a woman" (though not as smart as him). His other articles ("Non-games are for Non-gamers", "Leave Ranking to the Experts"). I love this dude.


Why isn't this site already DDOSed?


Oh wow, reading that was almost as fun as playing EVE Online.


>Go to his website
>Persona 3 = 1/5 stars, "Beyond its undeniable stylistic allure, Persona 3 is no more than a piss-poor social life simulator ineptly grafted onto a shoddy dungeon crawler."
>No More Heroes = 2/5, "This game fucking sssssssucks and I fucking hated almost every moment I spent playing it. It's nothing more than an ugly, gimmicky, cheap-ass, third-rate, five-dollar GTA knock-off, whose only redeeming feature is its funky comic book vibe, and perhaps also its at-times slightly amusing dialogue."
>Lost Odyssey 1/5, "Sakaguchi's epic travesty of a videogame"
>Final Fantasy XII 1/5

I like this guy.


To clarify, he said casualfags only ruin them halfway, then they tag in the artfags to finish the job. There's actually a lot of teamwork involved.

Preng wrote:At the endangerment of dragging this topic further into left field, I went and read the Minecraft review that Vert1 had previously posted. I have not played the game and have only heard things about it from forumers and other friends and acquaintances.

I will admit that the review made a few good points. A comparison between Minecraft and SimCity was made in which SimCity was praised for having interactivity and expansiveness whereas Minecraft may be somewhat lacking. For example, a city in Minecraft does not have technical data that makes it continually expand or progress the game on its own; there are limitations. The writer then critques the game as, on the basis of being a fun creation engine, inferior to other tools. These were the main points that I got out of the article.

However, even knowing this, I do not find the writer to be very credible or enjoyable. I have no problem if his opinion differs from what I have previously learned from the game - indeed, some will enjoy Minecraft and others simply will not. Unfortunately, the writer's style strikes me as extremely egotistical and overly dramatic.

The introduction to this article may be a "distraction" that carries no real weight to the critique of the game itself, yet is not something most readers would simply ignore because it effectively marks the tone of the article. I certainly could not imagine asking someone face-to-face about the game and receiving a response such as this:

Alex Kierkegaard wrote:It's so easy to see what the problem is with Minecraft, that I almost feel embarrassed to have to come out and say it. But what we have here once more, as with Seiklus, or Flow, or Flower, or Braid, or Spelunky, or any of the other so-called "indie" abortions, is the same old story, and if there's no one left reviewing games today who actually knows anything about them, and such blatant failings can pass by everyone else unnoticed, I guess I am just going to have to take a few moments out of my day to sit down, write a few words, and point them out.


This does not strike me as an article with my best interests at heart, but rather an opinion of a narcissistic author with infallible opinions.

The writer continues in this fashion by lightly mocking those who enjoy the game - later calling them fuckfaces - and ultimately calls Markus Persson a "fat Swedish fuck." Again, these may not have much to do with the actual game critique, but as Cameron likely implies, I feel that with their inclusion, the author's mindset is unfortunately warped which makes me distrust the entire article.

It's okay to dislike a game, and I understand that some of these remarks can and have been used for sarcasm, but after reading the article - even having noticed and reflecting on critical points - I do not place much respect in this article and would not read any others from the same website.

stake n sheak wrote:Yeah, I don't really care about how big the site is. As I said, it's a question of the reviewer wanting the same things in a game that I do. The big sites are fine to get news or a general idea of a game, but I don't trust them.

I'm not saying everybody should read that site, just that I do, and when they say something, I'm going to read it and give it pretty heavy weight.

Just for example the major sites all gave Mario Galaxy very high scores. Good ratings, good reviews, slobbering all over it for many paragraphs. So I bought it. I played for four or five hours. It seemed very poorly designed. I spent most of the time just wandering around until I would stumble onto a star or a boss or an exit, or whatever. On top of which jumping on goombas is hard in 3D. I don't know why, I have no problem controlling or navigating in other 3D games. But for some reason to me Mario just belongs in 2D. All of the same problems I had with Sunshine persisted in Galaxy. In fact I found it worse in Galaxy, despite the near universal panning of Sunshine and praise of Galaxy. I really tried to get into it and like it, but couldn't regardless of what "reputable" sites say.

I appreciate depth and reasoning in a review. The IGN review tells me what it's like to watch the game, whereas insomnia.ac says more what it's like to actually play it. Call me crazy, but as cool as it sounds to "trap an enemy in a tire, stab him several times with street signs and then slam him into a wall of spikes," (IGN, page 2), I find it more important to know that "the only skill this colorful display of cruelty requires is being able to press the A button at the right time. Press A to pick up candelabra, press A to cram it into an eye socket. Repeat until you grab the enemy (Protip: A button) and shake the remote to throw him forward into a pit of spikes." Suddenly it kind of sounds like no fun.

So I really respect the opinions and writing on insomnia. It's real criticism, instead of simple description. The big sites have proved multiple times that their positive reviews mean nothing in terms of me actually liking the game. So I don't care what they say on the positive side when making a choice to buy or not.

But he made a mistake. Even Leigh Alexander would not want to play that game. She just says she does because that is the only way people will pay attention to her. Just like Tim Rogers says Canabalt is the best game ever without having actually played it more than 10 minutes. It's called hypocrisy.

More proof that, no matter how clearly and with how much detail you explain something to subhumans, and no matter how simple that damn subject was to begin with, they'll follow you along for at best a couple of paragraphs, and then go back to doing EXACTLY THE SAME BULLSHIT THEY WERE DOING BEFORE FOR FUCK'S SAKES.

Another thing he complains about is close scores like, for example, 76/100 and 77/100. His position boils down to "I cannot imagine myself making very precise judgements about games, therefore it is impossible." It is a laughable position. Alex seems to have a habit of confusing the negligible with the actually non-existent: Just because it's hard to see that 76 to 77 difference, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I agree that if you are really using a score system with 100 values (or worse, decimals!), you should probably think again. But that doesn't mean it's inherently bad, and it doesn't mean there can't be some guy out there who really can review games so finely that he can discern a 1/100 difference in quality (although, most that score out of 100 probably can't do it). This part is also tangential to my purposes.


How on earth can you read that article and still say something like this? I would very much so like to meet this theoretical person who can describe in words the meaningful difference of 1 in 100 between scores.

And who is this "other guy" he's talking about anyway? I am the best videogame reviewer in the world; if I can't properly employ rating scales with more than five gradations, no one can. And in fact even the five give me trouble now and then -- I can't tell you the number of times I've gone back and forth between a 3 and a 4 rating for example (the most common instance), and the other guys who review games here often have the same problem.

Moreover, the retard seems to regard himself also as a kind of film expert, but go to Ebert and the rest of them and tell them to start rating movies out of 100 and they'll call out your aspieism right away.

"BUT MOVIES DONT HAVE GEAMPLAY", the aspies will then retort, which brings us right back where we started, meaning one step away from the gas chambers and other final solutions.

What's even funnier is how the aspie went, in the amount of time it took him to read my article, from the artfag position (SCORES ARE EVIL) to the exact opposite one (WE MUST SCORE EVERY PIXEL OUT OF 1,000,000). He was basically an aspie who had become impressed by the artfags' verbiage, and who just needed a little push in the opposite direction for his true inner aspie to break forth. Now he's taken out his calculator and is happily punching away! Who said that my writings could not be inspirational, even to the people and the ideas I oppose! The intelligence of evil has struck again!

SUSPECTIBLE "human beings" (most likely subhumans themselves, or were already infected with subhuman cancer prior), will find nothing inherently wrong with a subhuman, and will gladly welcome him or her to the suspectible human's little circlejerk, dribbling nonsence with the subhuman back and forth. IMMUNE human beings, on the other hand, only need to examine the subhuman's PHYSICAL AND MENTAL DEFECTS to realise that he or she is NOT WORTH ANYONE'S TIME -- an abortionate scumbag who should be rightfully put in a mental hospital -- or better yet: WIPED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. Clearly, and startlingly, Ikeda-san was one of the former when he chose to hire Watanabe and Umemoto -- a mistake that will inevitbly lead to his company's DOWNWARD SPIRAL TOWARDS OBLIVION. Perhaps, then, it was a blessing that Umemoto deservedly died before he could cause some more irrepearable damage to the company -- but if only the same could happen to Watanabe...


I lolled, hard. The dude is hilarious. He makes me wonder at times whether I am getting up at night and posting that stuff in my sleep. If you end up reading this, dude, send me an email and I'll give you a free subscription in exchange for the occasional frontpage commentary. Perhaps we could take it so far that people wouldn't know who's who, until we blend into each other and become one lol (in an utterly non-homoerotic way, it goes without saying).

This has to be seen to be believed:

Only good thing I can see about it is that it widely references me.

What's hilarious about it, among many other things, is that with all the author's furious attempts to present the appearance of a distinguished, professional academic, he forgot to include his own name.

Anyone has any idea what AOD is and when I am supposed to have written about it?

Oh, I get it, icycalm. You don’t want people to counter your points (which, however good they are, are coated with pretentious inflammatory bullshit) so you hide behind making people do a monetary commitment.

icycalm go eat a million icy dicks plz.
