The Stupidest Words/Terms in Videogames

Unread postby icycalm » 24 Aug 2009 17:37

I've already covered gameplay and retro. I'll also cover a couple more at length in future articles. The rest will simply be lumped here and whoever uses them can consider himself as having gained the Official Insomnia Seal of Retardation.

So today's stupidest term is "procedural rhetoric", lol, which most probably is yet another synonym for story, plot, scenario, narrative, etc. etc. All the little fuckheads think that by makeificating new words we won't notice that they are saying the same stupid things they've always been saying -- BUT GUESS WHAT MORONS: WE NOTICE, LOL.

Braid is a masterpiece of game design and procedural rhetoric,
