I decided to wear one of my Zelda shirts today, and this group of 5 Final Fantasy fanboys and girls decide to call me a "loser" for playing the Wii instead of the "exceedingly superior" PS3. I asked if any of them had even played the Wii, they said no, but they didn't care because I can't play FFVII on my Wii, because Cloud is the greatest protagonist of any game, EVER.
So I got pissed, of course, because not only are they raving about PS3 being superior because of games that aren't coming out on it until LATE next year, but because they're slobbering over the most overrated game of all time. I like Final Fantasy, but IMO, it's best days were on the SNES, and FFIX on the PSX. Old School > Futuristic settings, but that's just my opinion.
So we started arguing about Link vs. Cloud, I decided to let them go first, to tell me why Link sucked.
Their reasons (each person got one): 1.) Link dresses in stockings and a skirt, he looks like a crossdresser. 2.) He saves the same damn person every damn game. 3.) He's never had a movie done after one of his game. 4.) Link isn't as old as Cloud, so therefore he's less mature. 5.) Link never rode a motorcycle.
And I got to have some FUN with my rebuttals... 1.) Cloud has the most ******** up hairdo I've ever seen, and as I recall, he crossdressed INTENTIONALLY, with make-up, perfume, a wig, and a DRESS, so you can't EVEN talk about the crossdressing deal. 2.) He can't save anyone from anything (Cloud himself said it, not me). 3.) Advent Children sucked as a movie, but it did look awesome. Zelda is something you should play, not something you should watch. It's not the same. 4.) If being a whiny emo and wallowing in self-pity after a girl dies is "mature," I think Link's the most immature game character in the world. 5.) Link gets ridden by a Princess of Twilight while he's in wolf form, which is greater than a motorcycle. He also rode a piece of ice down a mountain, two different types of birds, a horse, a boar, and a canoe. Not all of those SOUND as cool as a motorcycle, but are much more fun to control.
All they could say was "******** you" after every one of them, and then they walked away.
So thank you Nintendo, for not having made Link a whiny emo over the years. Miyamoto, you deserve MAD props.
