Tieno should be hired to make every official thread.

It's evilore's forum and he can do what he wants, it's just kind of gaudy and reads like an advertisement. and a lot of people who make those OPs say they're trying to get people to buy the game, which is kind of over the line, imho. Sales age is distinguished mentally-challenged, lets just discuss the games...oh yeah, that's why I'm here.

Zero Hero is right though. You guys really wouldn't be whining like this if it wasn't for a PS3 exclusive (or did I miss the great backlash following the Gears of War 2 thread?) You know it's true so just fucking admit it already. What is it, anger that Sony fanboys are so remarkably dedicated to their objects of admiration that they actually put some work into it? Anger that a PS3 game is being promoted? Not saying that these giant threads aren't a bugger to read or a little bit fucked up in nature, but it doesn't make a ton of sense to bitch about this when the whole reason that you bitch about is because of your own fanboy leanings.

And out of curiosity, since we're cheering for the sour here...

BruceLeeroy's and some other OT are more porn for masturbating your anticipated-game boner than anything else. Highly suspect and not needed.

What exactly is wrong about an OT like that? Sounds like a good format for a hype thread, which is all these threads are anyway. Instead of concluding that the format unnecessary, maybe the assumption should be that forum isn't for you these days?

And people discuss in them, and there's info to be had in the OP. There are also people who excited about the game and want to talk about, well, being excited about the game. There's material for those people, too. So what's wrong with it again? Not cynical enough? That's hardly something to fault people over.

Me and Bud share poon how I "share" my lyrics
Raw, without remorse, full of hysterics
It's true cuz all the real distinguished black fellows share all their shit
Women, some rubbers, even menthol Camel cigs
The truth is hard to believe, although it's clear to see
Women love it when you treat em like property
I love my wife but she howls about my camel face endlessly
Bud can have her anyday, I'm bored
These dick suckin' lips gotta have a use
pussy's out for me but penis is right in the door
Sloppy seconds cha'll
sloppy seconds for all ya'll
Right here at the bore

as per last time, all images on http://www.globalstudio.com
which is apparently where Bruce works, he's just doing this in his spare time and is allowed to host the images there, the fact that that's a viral/ad company is just a coincidence.

i think that's the official line - i mean, it could all be true, but how does it look in this context?!

Huge virally thread from someone working for a viral company that deals with videogames/multimedia with all the images hosted on said viral companies website? hmmm.

I guess if he owns Globalstudio then that's way more plausible but still ...

Sony doesn't have a habit of hiring less-than-amazing "advertising agencies," though. His profession explains why the threads are the way they are, and I'm pretty sure that's all there is to it. The level of organization is a bit excessive, but if you're going to do it you might as well do it properly. I mean, if this is viral marketing, then it's got to be the shittiest attempt at viral marketing ever seen.

I'm sure there are some people that spend more times on gifs or VG Cats edits (I only remember one guy saying he lost hours of work making a vg cat edit). The reason I don't think its viral and more of an interest thing is really because I can't honestly believe a single person on neogaf would be stupid enough to purchase a game because of an OP, and there are some fuck-stupid people on neogaf.
