The GNamer Posts Appreciation Thread

I cannot do anything right

Few people can do this one, Jim. I myself am only able to via a form of arcane wizardry, dating back through literally decades of forum admins.

I could do it but I can rarely be arsed. None of your posts are that good.

Does your post contain a game you developed yourself in, a game of glorious simplicity? No? Then your post isn't as good as this one.

I've truly made it on GNamer now I got a mention here B)

I'm sure it went over the heads of all the non-wrestling fans, and its a bit cheeky because I was a part of it, but I really enjoyed

this exchange:

Different strokes for different folks but I would miss so many great games being single format and it's all about the game and how you play it.

Yeah, I understand that to an extent. Monster Hunter World alone does tempt me a little. But I think I've consciously made a sort of decision that I only want to be a Nintendo guy at the moment, and its helping dampen those feelings. Its all about control, and how you take it.

I think there's been no better time to be a Nintendo only gamer. There's so much coming out and lots of ports heading Switchwards too. I mean, from now until next year, there's big games nearly every month up to New Horizons, and considering how much Tom Nook lends out, that'll be getting played for ages. It's all about your debt and if you can pay it.

between Mas, myself and Jay in the What in Gaming Are You Excited For? thread.

Even I missed that one so well played folks.

Aha, I enjoyed being a part of that - hoped somebody else would latch onto it and we'd end up with the whole song.

Liked this a lot from the reviews thread:

Were you on the wacky baccy when you typed this?

"...hearing good things from Metal Jesus and his bud Radical Reggie" must sound completely mental to anybody that doesn't watch gaming shows on YouTube. It's the idea that Jaster was just staring at his monitor thinking "what the flying fuck are you on about?" and thinking that they're masofdas's hallucinations that makes it great.

Haha cheers! I do watch a bit of youtube but I've honestly never heard of these guys.

I genuinely laughed. Perhaps needs context, but this was a brilliant punchline.

You all loved it, and somehow I'm still double-posting it.  Cappa uncovers the truth behind Mas' release threads.  WAKE UP GNEEPLE.

Also, with apologies to Mas, this first line of Jimbob's post made me smile which is impressive considering the context!

I remember accidentally thowing my sister's (now ex-)boyfriend's (Super Mario 3D World) character (Luigi I'd guess) off the edge, and he laughed so much he farted.

This is the level of effort I expect from all of you from now on for our big discussion threads.

Slackers will be terminated.

GJones is going to have to do more than a post where he's wrong about Switch games for me to appreciate it.

On the other hand, I can get behind Jas' in-depth slagging off of the PS5 non-name.

Well someone has to have a correct opinion on that Wii U game

You say that like it's an insult, but the best game on the Wii was a GameCube game...

Didn't know Super Mario Galaxy was on GameCube

Great post from Balla summing up his thoughts on platformers in the 2010s.

I'll get my own thoughts together on that topic soon enough.

Thank you Jay, I'm glad somebody enjoyed my ramblings.

...actually stuff that, they weren't ramblings.  I spent far too long structuring that post and put far too much effort into the damn thing, so it is gratifying to see someone respond positively even if they disagree and I am grateful.

I look like a right ninny for my comment on GJones' post above now. Sorry GJones.

Yeah even though I might not agree with certain parts it was a good post.

Speaking of good long posts and GJones, good on him for bringing us some fine SuperPlay material. I've never really seen the mag before - it's good to know your roots!

And very similar from Jay in this thread. Worth it for Spider-Girl (not that one) alone.

Ah, merci! I'm hoping the other updates will be of a similar quality.

Really good thread, and I do like retro chat and unlike some chat, as someone that owned an OG Xbox and used as the main system, I can talk a lot about it compared to some of the mag chat being on the SNES as someone who had a Mega Drive.

Hope to see more of these and I may have a look to see if my Dreamcast demos have any sort of videos on them.
