Ahahahaha. This exact same topic came up on GameFAQs when the chapter first came out. It was funny then, and it's funny now.

Professor studies history behind his religion.  Comes to the conclusion that Muhammed might not have existed.  You know, thinks about his religion and questions it.  Re evaluates his perspective on it.  Thinks critically, instead of taking things for granted.

Response?  Germany's Muslim Coordinating Council refuses to be associated with him.  Some worry that this audacity to question will make it hard for German scholars to work in Muslim lands.  Oh, religion.  Sigh.

What time of year is it?  END OF YEAR TIME!  Time for the incessant "BEST GAEM EVER/OFYEAR" stream of bullshit again, so if I feel like reading tripe expect a few more gems like this.

Lets get the 2 big face palms out of the way

Deeper, bigger, and better than ever, Fallout 3 may be recent but has already carved out its niche in RPG history.
No matter how not shit FO3 is.  No.  Just no.

WoW got Number 2 RPG Evar!  Meh tired old bullshit.  Warhammer MMO got on there as well.  What the fuck at that as well.

Quote
So deep was the customization and maintenance required for your Gear, and so rewarding were the results of adding parts and upgrades, the combat of Xenogears was almost another game within a game.

GEAR COMBAT IS DEEP AND INTERESTING IN XENOGEARS GUYS.  DIRECT NUMERICAL UPGRADES ARE DIVERSE AND INTERESTING ALMOST LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME THAT WE HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.

Grandia 1?  Do I need to cover this?  Sooooooo not the best in its series by far.

Another list that piles all the Ultima games in together and just gives them a token nod.  Whatever, just an aside stupid on top of the other crap.

Ultimately, it is a drawn up list that tries to appeal to everyone SHINY GRAFFPICZ, some minor cult hits from a random smattering of systems and then drop the FF7!!!!!!!! bomb at the end.  Stinks like the market generated piece of shit article that it is.

Also liked how the only other FF on there was FF12, the one that is pretty much universally hated.

You wish.  A lot of people actually like FF12.

Nevertheless, FF 12 is probably also the most hated in FF. At least 24 of 26 actually are RPGs! At least, only the Zelda games aren't that I know of.

Deus Ex, from my understanding, is more RPG than other FPSes so I can at least understand the confusion there.  doesn't make the list less fail though.

It would make sense if there wasn't RPGs that used first person perspective, but they have some of them on the list anyway.  Namely, Fallout 3.

Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

Wow, that's pretty horrifying. Objectively, I have trouble understanding why it bothers me so much. You hear stories about Con Artists and Thieves all the time... but stealing money from a terminal cancer patient? Especially one that you spend a lot of time with? Ugh. It makes me feel kind of sick.

Yeah, our school does the Shinerama program too. We've been livid since we heard what happened in Ontario and protesting and the such. I've never heard such stupid comments about a disease, ever.

Also, stealing like that from cancer patient??? What the fuck people.

Eh, it's Carlton.  They're kinda infamous for political correct idiocy.  Really, the best you can hope is that whatever they're up to doesn't make the news.

Absolutely repulsive. A woman is murdered by a person she'd never met, while working. Store's insurance denies the claim for her death benefits for her 11 year old son. Why? Because she was African-American, and the murder was racially motivated- and apparently being killed on the job for your race is "Personal" and not "Work Related".

I realize Neogaf's system war fanboys merit Idiot of the Eternity, but 33 pages in less than 12 hours is still rediculous.

VC has Jann, a flaming queer that puts Joachim to shame, and it's his entire character. How is including it on such a list IoTD-worthy?

It's not the content of the list, but the list itself.  Kinda like the whole 'Harry Potter leads to Satan worship' thing.
