Bagels > English muffins.

Also, if we're talking about languages, English is nowhere near the top of the list... Spanish, Portuguese, and French are much prettier languages.[/quote]Well, like you said with Russian food, I was raised speaking English, I have a biased opinion.

And Italian is the best, for everything.

That's not what I meant by over, and I thought that was obvious. But since it apparently isn't, I'll elaborate: Nintendo will not make any more good Zelda games. They'll be more "accessible to casuals", in other words the game will do everything for you. And the same thing goes for all the other franchises. Basically, I meant Nintendo will be over in the same way Sonic is currently over.
What? You're making absolutely no sense.

Sonic is over because his games suck, not because they're accessible to everyone. Zelda, however, has been enjoying high rated games this past decade (unlike Sonic), and guess what... the "accessible to everyone" mentality has been there since they finished Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess + Phantom Hourglass are great games. The latter is good, not great, but TP is a masterpiece.
First off, chill. It's just a video game.

Second, you are not making sense. The games will suck BECAUSE they're accessible to everyone. Like I said in my last post, the game will basically do everything for you. There will be no new challenge, and therefore they won't be as good. And Twilight Princess, the game that they rushed to make "Wii-compatible", is NOT a masterpiece. It is an example of the path Nintendo is going down. PH > TP.
Chill? I am in no way riled up... if I was, you'd know, hahaha...

Wow, you just contradicted yourself twice. You compared Sonic to potential future Zeldas. You're saying Zelda will suck because it'll be accessible to casual gamers. Then the comparison makes no sense because Sonic was never dumbed down to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

Your second contradiction is "PH > TP". Phantom Hourglass was obviously pandering to the casual crowd. It was devoid of challenge, unlike TP. So sorry, again, you're making no sense.

Edit - You also got your facts wrong on Twilight Princess. It was never rushed to take advantage of the Wii controller... in fact the GCN version was already done when they had the idea for Wii controls, as far as I know...
I meant chill because of the way you're talking. Such as with this latest post.

You're taking the comparison to Sonic a little too literally. I just meant they will be similiar in the "it's still there, but not as good" sense.

Wait...you're saying TP was actually hard? Um...there was no challenge in TP either. The only difference between the two was that the last couple dungeons in PH were actually halfway decent, and the ending wasn't...off...at all.

They didn't rush it...? Then that just makes it worse. Nintendo made a disappointing game for no reason then.

But now he only speaks it when drunk.

Thus, learning German requires careful planning.

Italian is absolute win, all the great pastas originated there, the same with the mafia. Love that mafia. I'm in the mood for Pizza Delight now.

That's just the way of talk... it's in no way indicative of my mood. : )

Yeah, you never specified that part of the Sonic comparison in your first post.

The challenge in PH was artificial... the only challenging part was the last dungeon, and even then, it was because you had to go through the same rooms way too often. In fact, I'd argue it was repetitive, not challenging. What exactly was off about TP's ending?

Jeez, these Nintendo fans... you can never please them. First they clamor for a sequel in the vein of OoT, and Nintendo follows up with that request... and now the game's suddenly "disappointing" because it takes too much from Ocarina of Time. Pfft.

Aw man, I have to wait for an answer.
Yeah, you're as on-topic as the rest of us, save DSFan who can't follow the thread.
poopoo

I'm on topic now. :D [/quote]Now we shall continue a thread about foods and whatnot.

THE VILLAGERS WILL NOT RIOT
 
To throw in something, Nintendo fans are correct and wrong 100% of the time.

DSFan: Yeah, that's completely on the topic of food. Unless you eat that.

I can't explain it. But I think it had something to do with how the last two dungeons failed epicly.

That last paragraph is a stereotype. Not everyone wants a OoT sequel. I want a game completely different from OoT; you will never be able to emulate anything like that again. So yeah, TP is disappointing for the reason you said, and more. But I never wanted a "sequel" (I think MM already did that though ;) ).
 
DSFan, it's called a generalization, not a stereotype.

Bul, what foods exactly originated in Russia?
