HATING THINGS JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE POPULAR
Yes,I'm talking about people who's ONLY reason for hating something is because many other people enjoy it alot.Take FF7 for a good example,most of you who've played it can tell me just how friggin awesome it is right?from gameplay to story to characters.And I'm sure at one point you believed "THIS IS THE BEST RPG EVA"[/exaggerated] ok maybe not THAT great :P
And then you have this whole "hating community" that bashes it repeatedly for no reason(literally).When you ask these ppl "why do you hate it so much?" the most you can get outta them is "Its not that great a game :P" or no answer.
And yes it gets worse.Then you have these ppl who have totally fallen in love with something JUST BECAUSE ITS CRAP!!!
Yes,I know ppl who's only reason for liking something is because "Its the worst in the series" or "Its soo underrated".When you ask these ppl "why do you love it so much?" the most you get outta them is "Its not that bad" or no answer
However,if you do somehow buck into someone who can give you a proper answer when you ask them these things,then you got someone with a mind of his own
Yeah it's happened to me before, all i got was "cos' it's crap and my one's better >=C" +1
That's true. I've talked to a lotta people about games that were awesome (like FF7 and Smash Bros Brawl) and they never gave me a reason why they hated them. The nerve of some people
Wind, like you say. It IS the internet. Not only does that mean you can't take what people say as you interpret it, it also means that there is a large population of retarded haters.

I'm guilty of that. But with other things. Like Runescape (well actually that's just one reason of many).

I feel guilty...
I am one of those people who tends to hate the super popular stuff.
Example: The Twilight series.
My argument is that it's crap, but I usually back it up with actual reasons.

Runescape fails. It's full of 6 year olds who swear and try to act cool, rich people who think they're better than everyone, and it has no story.
There, 3 reasons why Runescape is bad.

I didn't like Twilight either. I went and saw it and it was awful. I read the book and it sucked. Everyone fantasizes Robert Pattison way too much.

True.
A-lad and I could outsing them. We've checked.
Individually or as a group.
So could you and your a cappella (spell fail?) powers! ;D
All 3 of us could outsing them and become celebs easily! And I play piano so that could help

We could be a pianist trio!
Or blazer could play piano while A-lad and I burn through the strings on our violins!

I also disagree with the sense of speed thing on Sonic himself. Just buy the blue (I think) gem and use that to go A LOT faster... As for the bad gameplay, it's more like SADX, it's a platformer, not a speed game. Yes, SADX had more default speed, but Sonic 06 also has size.
