re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

I dunno about everyone else, but I'd rather not have a header that's bashing GTA. It's the Saint's Row forum, not the 'This-game-is-going-to-be-more-fun-than-IV' forum. =P

Its not bashing, its just that that since most people like the wacky game play and GTA4 didn't stay with that current path it just makes it a cool header. Im not saying GTA4 sucks, so I can't see how its bashing it?

re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

It's the Saint's Row forum, it should have a Saint's Row header, not a 'This game is better than GTA' header. =P

Matty, that pic is pretty awesome. If you could make a header out of that I'll put it up until we decide on something more permanent.

I agree. I think the bashing they are doing is a lot of fun, and it is between Volitions and Rockstar. However, posting a banner bashing GTA really sends the wrong message. It comes off like we're taking sides, and an objective gaming site shouldn't do that.

re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

It also makes the game look (to the uninitiated) like a GTA clone that's trying a bit too hard, tbh.

I might even have a go at making a header. It'll probably be naff, but it's worth a go.

re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

lol I do. Volitions is going out of their way to promote SR2 as wild and insane fun, and depart from the seriousness of GTA IV.

Not really in fact you're making it out to send a wrong message and bashing. If this really twist your panties in a knot then take out the GTA4 picture and just keep the rest: SR2 bringing back the unrealistic gameplay. Listen facts are facts, and this is what the game is bringing. Im not bashing GTA4, cause If I did, I wouldn't still be playing the game and enjoying it.

re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

Huh??

That makes absolutely no sense. I am not even 100% sure what you are saying. My sole point is that while I think the bashing of GTA IV is funny as all hell, just as I found Rockstar's bashing of games like Driver and True crime to be funny, I think it would be inappropriate to have those negative ads as BANNERS in a forum's header or footer on Neoseeker.

Remember that we DO NOT own this site. And I seriously doubt that Redemption would like it very much if our having a GTA IV bashing banner at the head of this forum caused Rockstar to ge offended. Neoseeker is a gaming website and as such it HAS TO maintain a certain decorum and objectivity, I would no more allow a Saint's Row bashing banner or a driver bashing GTA IV banner in the GTA IV forum than I think Shane should allow a GTA IV bashing banner here. It is unprofessional for a forum that is supposed to be for gamers and NOT supposed to be taking sides.

re: Saints Row 2 RFS thread

Final Blade, what we're trying to say is that we don't want this forum to be a forum that is known because the game has the wackey gameplay that GTA didn't have. Sure, if the game is known for it, then that's fine. But we're not going to be advertising the fact that the game is more unrealistic than GTA IV in the header. It's pretty much as simple as that.

The game (or at least the forum) is going to succeed or fall on it's own merits or downfalls. We're not going to make people biased in the very basics of the forum such as the header.

quote ChiroVette

Aye, agreed. And to further that point, it's our place to get rid of the exact kind of fanboy spew that the kind of header that's being talked about would start up in the forum. We want the forum to run smoothly. There will always be bumps in the road, but I don't want the place to have material that's gonna cause an arguement or start a fanboy war stuck right at the top of it.

Case in point, Shane is the Section Mod. I mean if that isn't a bump in the road, then what is?

Shane » BANNED

lol Seriously, thats the point, as Shane says. We are not here to promote one game over another. We can be as biased as we want in our posts, and lord knows, I have been about as biased on this GTA IV topic as anyone. However, we cannot allow the rhetoric of one company to be used as a forum banner.
