This is why I love Nintendo (A freakinlotta reading)

I'm not a Nintendo fanboy.

I just don't like Playstation or Xbox.

Yoshi... I don't feel like starting a flamewar here so just cool it. You hate the voice acting in MGS:TTS and I don't. End of story.

Cool it? You think I'm angry about this? For chrissakes, if I'm angry I'll write you an essay--I just know you're wrong.

I hate to barge in, but you can't be wrong when coming to personal opinion....

Mind telling me how? If it's a PERSONAL opinion, then you can't be wrong, it's YOUR opinion :p

An opinion isn't this magical barrier that prevents you from being wrong, and does not serve to automatically strengthen any argument. An opinion afterall can be baseless, and often many peoples' opinions are.

In Hitler's opinion, jews needed to be killed in masses. Now tell me, did that make him right? I mean.. it WAS his PERSONAL OPINION.

Did I ever mension anything big? No.

I'm just talking aout simple opinions. When coming to killing everyone, it's definatly not right. But if it comes to a video game console or it's quality, it's pure taste and opinion. Like he said: You hate the voice acting in MGS:TTS and he doesn't. Just leave it at that and try not to force him into thinking the same as yoshi.

Except that I'm right, as there are skill levels to voice acting. If there weren't, everyone would always listen to English dubs of Japanese anime (even though most Japanese VAs are as bad as the english ones, you can't understand them so I guess that makes it better?) and people would be paid the same no matter their skill level.

You can't be right. He thinks the voice acting in a game was good, you can't tell him he's wrong although you can disagree with him.

You mean to tell me you wouldn't say I'm wrong if I told you the voice acting in Pokemon was excellently spot on. And what about if I say that Keanu Reeves is one of the best actors I've ever seen.

Then that would be fine, because your tastes are different from my tastes. It's when you say you're right that I have a problem with it, because opinions of taste fairly obviously can't be right.

It's the same thing as saying "Bananas suck! If you like them, you're wrong!" That's ludicrous, man.

I'm over it.

Pokemon.. I haven't seen it in ages but I know most anime shows I like have bad dialogue. I just ignore it. Alot of voice actors in those suck, as well... I can probably do 10 times better..

As for keanu reaves, I love the guy. He's just plain awesome.

It's not quite like that, though I know you'd love it to be. It'd be like proclaiming I'm the best artist in the world...completely fallacious.

It is only in the sense that there is no 'best' artist. However, no one can prove you wrong because it is an opinion of taste. To some random dude in India, your art could be his favorite art he's ever seen. Give it up Yoshi.

Keep in mind the world doesn't revolve around you and that not everyone agrees with you, and there always was, and always will be someone who doesn't agree with you. And theres nothing you can do. So like Freelancer said, give it up.

Christ, people, no "YOUR OPINION IS WRONG" pic yet?

We're not talking about best, we're talking about technical skill. I have nowhere near the amount of technical skill of any other artist (though yes, art is interpretation, if you don't have skill it doesn't matter how much interpretation there is to the piece). So...wait, why would I be giving it up again? Oh, that's right, I won't, because you're wrong.

And of course you think your opinion is correct and true and superior to all others OTHERWISE IT WOULDN'T BE YOUR OPINION.

it GOES WITHOUT SAYING that what you are posting is YOUR OPINION. it's BLOODY OBVIOUS that it is your opinion.

What we're trying to decide is whether your opinion MAKES SENSE, whether your opinion is LOGICALLY VALID.

We have a whole host of people with a whole host of reasons telling you that it ISN'T. YOUR OPINION! is being shot to pieces. The fact that it is 'your opinion!' does not make it correct, it does not make it true, it does not make it untouchable. You are not entitled to an opinion simply by choosing to have one!

Reiterating "IT'S MY OPINION!!!!!!!" means NOTHING. NOTHING.

It adds NOTHING to the argument, it does NOTHING to defend your position.

NOTHING.

so STOP DOING IT. SHUT UP.

Kirby: Nifty quote. I need to keep that for occasions.

Yoshi: Ok, so the voice actors are bad, so what? That's not gonna change my opinion and I don't care if I'm wrong. Also, never implied once in my statement that you were angry, all I said was I'm going to quit posting on the voice acting of MGS before a flamewar starts and at this point, I don't care how you reply to this, I'm giving up trying to state my opinion, god-forbid.

And your opinion's wrong is all I'm saying. You were arguing that it wasn't. Argument over since you admitted it is.

This thread isn't going anywhere good. Apparently people feel the need to have childish 'opinion' debates, so an admin can close this any time.
