Wait an hour, are y'all talking about the old drum game made in DDR-style, or the one that's an action game controlled by drumming and clapping that was such a big hit at E3?

I got my hopes all up before I realized what game y'all were probably talking about.

I'm sorry you think that, but maybe you should go to a game retailer with the demo and play the game before you make that assumption.

It's so great. I started work 2 weeks ago and I've already rang up 15 preorders for that game after giving parents, college students, and kids a lesson on it. Everybody I've shown it to has fallen in love with it.

I'd play it. But not buy it. I could also just go and buy a set of real bongos. Those are fun too.

I doubt i would even rent it if I owned a GC....it does seem childish to me as well.

Think about it....you hit drums to the beat. Woo.

Im not big on that style of game, the whole DDR thing isnt really my love.

I would play it and give it the old college try if someone i know rented it....but not me.

Yeah that's what I thought at first too!

I've seen some screenshots of that game and I'm more excited about that one.

But perhaps I should play Donkey Konga just to try it...

You just turned 13, you ARE a child.

I dont understand how you two can say this is childish. How is it any more childish than any other video game? Wha?

Your arguments dont make any sense. Video games in essence are childish. They bring out the child in you...and what's the difference in hitting a bongo, a ddr mat, or the buttons on a controller?

Not to ruin your point, but what about Manhunt, Mortal Kombat, GTA, games like that?

Kidding, i dont care.

But yeah, games are meant to be childish, in a sense, they are supposed to take you back to yesteryear, back when you didnt care about anything, back in the day.

well if I think that it's childish and I'm only 13 than it must be very childish

I think killing peopel and stealing is also childish. If you cant vent your anger to make money in a more honorable way, you are indeed acting very childish. In a video game it's different...its not real so you can actually enjoy doing it...but that doesnt change the fact that it's childish.

Someone should ban my brother fast. (code). He's making idiotic post (like his last two in this thread) for the sole purpose of getting money to feed his pet. >_>

Crash · 08-31-2004, 10:26 PM

feed his pet... that's not childish at all... heh

no even GTA is childish... brings back memories of smashing toys and breaking stuff... as well as playing army and cops and robbers.

give the game a try, you might like it...I think DDR is dumb and childish, but then i've never tried it. I played donkey konga and it's essentially the same, but I find it very entertaining.

Who doesn't sing in their car when they drive, who doesn't even drum on the steering wheel when they get into it... it's the same idea.

Nintendo does make great fun games, but people are so damn judgemental that they are missing out... mindless sheep you are... mindless sheep.

thatmariolover · 09-01-2004, 12:24 AM

Yeah, I dunno. It just bothers me how people can say a game's dumb without ever playing it. Whatever.

On a lighter note, I got three more reserves for Donkey Konga today - all from University of Minnesota students. :-p

Crash · 09-01-2004, 01:04 AM

yay Golden Gophers!!!

Rubber Kitty · 09-01-2004, 01:43 AM

Man, you guys just don't get it. Who wants to play a fun game when you can play something that gives you a false sense of maturity and coolness?
