IGNCUBE Main story: A conversation with someone over AIM

:lol

Is this what journalism has come to? I like how they always claim its a tough job and they are so busy, and you get pasted press releases, a couple of screenshots off of company websites, and answering mailbags with stupid responses. Now their mainstory is talking to someone over AIM??? :lol

Great work IGN.
 
Don't blame IGN Cube; blame Nintendo for not having anything importing relating the GameCube!!!!!111 Originality + 1 lolzors!
 
cgw's been doing AIM interviews for the past few months. not that they're interviewing each other, or anything.
 
It was really only a matter of time before IGN tried to passoff a chatlog as actual news or something.
 
to be fair, this isn't much different than something like EGM's final word.

it just so happens that a slow day for IGN is the same as a slow, bitchy day for GAF.
 
Amazing insight from IGN, what will happen at E3??? Find out below!


Matt-IGN: It's obvious we're both geeking out over the prospects of the new game. So let's close this article out. Care to make any E3 predictions about the new Zelda?

Juan-IGN: I think Nintendo will show a new trailer highlighting the animal element and new water areas...pretty much everything we haven't seen. Also, they'll announce the name and maybe, hopefully, spill the beans on the whole "wolf" thing.

Matt-IGN: I'll say that Nintendo delivers a playable demo. Probably not the full thing, but maybe a couple levels showing off the different aspects. I'll also wager that we'll finally learn the true name and how it ties into the new adventure. I'm sure we'll get to find about these animal aspects, too.

Juan-IGN: But who knows.

Matt-IGN: Yep, exactly.

Juan-IGN: Niiice.

Matt-IGN: I'll predict that this single game will keep Nintendo's booth crowded, too.

Juan-IGN: No doubt.

Matt-IGN:: Finally, I expect that at least one Nintendo fanboy will cry when it is shown again at the event. Possibly more than one.
 
Matt: So whats up with Revolution?

YoshiStoryPinkVagina: Well, my sources say its a combination hooka and coffeemaker, also makes julient fries!

Matt: w00t!
 
If you don't like it, don't read it bitches. The even sadder part is feeling the need to make a thread about it. :lol

IGN>you

Wow, you didn't even read it huh? That's the sad part.

So its sad to read it, its sad not to read it, and its sad to talk about it and that its pretty damn stupid. Great logic. :lol
 
I don't think about it as games journalism...more as games writing.

Matt-IGN: i had like 2 bowls of froot loops for breakfast and now im wired
Juan-IGN: lol
 
When did I ever say it was sad to read it? I said it was sad for someone to read something and then post a thread ridiculing it. Of course when said person didn't even read it to begin with, and then has the nerve to ridicule it, well, that's even sadder.

How the fuck can someone get wired off of only two bowls of Froot Loops, that's what I want to know.
 
Juan-IGN: why you always ranting on Nintendo? you sound like a fuckin homo!
Matt-IGN: i was promised lifetime supply of nintendo fun by Yamauchi after i sucked his yellow balls!
Juan-IGN: ..............

Matt-IGN: I predict we'll have our picture taken as we cheer on a live demonstration of Nintendogs. Messageboard dwellers will come to rely on this picture for funny photoshops, much like an old man relies on a crutch for walking, and a crack baby orphan relies on government handouts to subsist.

Juan-IGN: OMFG, will you stop it with the damn photo? It stopped being funny like 4 years ago. Jesus Christ, you're such a n00bular faggot.

Matt-IGN: :( *is crying*

Juan-IGN: LOL. Holy shit, good times man. You know I was just joking :)

Matt-IGN: That's what I told your mom, dumbass.

Juan-IGN: ....wtf?

Matt-IGN: THAT'S WHAT I TOLD YOUR MOM. THAT I WAS 'JUST JOKING.'

Juan-IGN: That doesn't make sense, it's not funny, and even if it did make sense it wouldn't be funny.

Matt-IGN: ...

Please stop with the stupid ass, 'if you don't like it don't read it' stuff. You could have done the same with this thread. You don't like it don't post in it. Same difference.

And I didn't need to read the thing to know it was a fucking AIM CONVO.

Juan-IGN: 16/f/ny
Matt-IGN: mmm iwant ur megat0n
Juan-IGN: lolol omg im wet
Juan-IGN: want my nude pix???/
oli-GA: nice grass texturez!
 
If Matt and Juan are just going to discuss everything they learned form the new EGM, it'd be nice if they at least came right out and said so.

Edit: BTW, I don't think the conversational-style IM thing is so bad. It's just a different way to present info, and imo more entertaining than the usual straight preview presentation.

"Today on IGNCube Roundtable: How awesome is the new EGM's cover?

Matt-IGN: I say pretty awesome.
Juan-IGN: I disagree, it's clearly very awesome.
Matt-IGN: That about wraps it up for this week."

Disney's Aladdin Confirmed Revolution Launch Title!!
 
Juan-IGN: I wonder if the game will utilize the GameCube's internal clock in some currently unknown, yet undeniably cool way.
Juan-IGN: Sounds a bit far fetched for a Zelda game, but hey, it's possible.
Matt-IGN: You never know.
Juan-IGN: What if there's a new item or something with the power to manipulate the moon?
Juan-IGN: Again, sounds almost too cool.
Juan-IGN: But whatever...would kick a whole lot of rump.
Matt-IGN:: I have to agree.

Wow, it's as if SantaCruZer's daily internal dialogue was parsed amongst two people and pasted on IGN's website.
 
Matt-IGN: Holy shit brb I need a wank.

Juan-IGN: i'll be right over.

At least last time they did this they had fran and peer and other editors discussing about the issues, this is just so low for IGN; they can't get the new Zelda pics so they're losing hits and becoming desperate.
 
What a pathetic update. A roundtable conversation with 2 people. And Juan is always agreeing with Matt. Is he Matt's puppy or what.
