Shadow of the Colossus is....

The new meme for SWF at the moment. There are now 5 blogs on this epic or not epic game,depending on which thread you're in, including my own.

I saw the game when it was still in development and being talked about video game magazines and even though the idea seemed intersting, the worlds looked big and empty. And everything was gray and foggy. It looked lazy and boring to me. The colossus creatures themselves are gigantic black masses to be obliterated by the hero guy from what I remember. In the magazine, it was being compared to the Zelda series in epicness. I personally couldn't see anything spectacular about it. I probably should look at some videos to see what the final game looked like but this blog is more about the blogs about the game then the game itself.

Marc is the original SotC blog maker isn't he? At this point you guys seem to be discussing the same exact thing now in the two "main" threads: Marc's SotC suxxorz and Wing35's I <3 SotC it's GRrrEAT!!!!!11...

The other blogs are blogs about those blogs or are only relevent to SotC because of the title. The orignal "Shadow of the Colossus is..." thread is about the Zelda series.

In closing, can we make the relevent threads to SotC one big thread and change it to Shadow of the Colossus discussion and give the other ones non mocking titles that are more relevent to what they are about so the slightly inept know what's going on? No? Thought not.

Tl;Dr

New meme is in the works. I called it first.

Oh wow. Another annoyingly titled thread meant to point at the obvious without contributing anything to the previous discussion. I didn't know that I needed to write a new blog to point out the obviously obvious. Maybe someone will make a thread about how the grass is green and how the colossi in Shadow of the Colossus are big. Maybe someone will even point out how you are so small and how the environment in the game is vast and expansive. It's useless to bother making a single post about it. It's up to people to be as obnoxious as possible and create new threads that have the same exact titles with the same exact points. Or attempt to create memes without having sufficient knowledge that a meme actually needs to be creative and at times funny, rather than being an annoyingly overused catch-phrase used by people who have no sense of individuality whatsoever and must bandwagon everyone else in order to survive.

Actually it doesn't have to be catchy it just has to be used frequently. Join the debate hall when you get more posts you'll fit right in. And I seriously did think about doing that but I figured this would be good enough.

I just saw that another "Shadow of the Colossus is..." thread was posted and kind of lost it. I thought it was hypocritical that you posted about consolidating all the various threads together in a new thread. Even though the original idea is sound, the fact that you had to create another blog, with the same exact title, and then proceed to refute such actions really tipped my sarcastic meter.

Sorry for being rude.

For the irritation this whole SotC saga has caused me as a moderator, I'm going to find a copy of it, smash it to pieces with a hammer, then burn it. I will then post said actions on Youtube.

To stay true to the lore of the game, all the threads would have to come together and form a giant colossi that you have to fight in order to save the future of smash forums.

Ahahaha giant colossi. Too excessive.

I'm almost tempted to merge the threads now.

You don't need to appologize because I totally deserved it. And yeah the irony/ satire w/e was purposely blatent.

Sorry Teran I couldn't resist.

And yet you made it BotW.

Thus you get no sympathy from me.

The original thread was fine.

The following nonsense was not.

Well, I haven't been keeping up on blogs, so this is the first time I've heard about the whole SotC good/bad thing. I'm kinda interested in what people had to say about the game... but I kinda don't wanna hear needless rage or fanboyism haha. I'd post what I thought about the game if I weren't so sure it'd bring 50 people into yelling and screaming :/

I haven't seen an irrational fight yet, only arguments and discissions. There's nothing wrong with that, I'm sure.
