I love you like a MadCatz controller...

It can be a scary thing when gamers attempt at romance! I’m not even sure if this should be considered a success or failure…

    A love is better than no love I suppose?

  2. Vabolo on February 17th, 2011 12:10 pm

    Also, your left shoulder came off. But who cares! You have the longest wire! :D

    Considering all my other GameCube controllers are wireless…

  3. Totema on February 17th, 2011 12:17 pm

    Ok, fine -- the only reason I'm still with you is because you have a turbo button. There, happy??

  4. Ichiinu on February 17th, 2011 12:17 pm

    And with your turbo button, oh so bright,
    you'd mess up my games all damn night.

  5. Dimomarg on February 17th, 2011 12:32 pm

    …And grabbing you is pretty comfortable too.

  6. Wetmang on February 17th, 2011 12:38 pm

    I love you like a Virtual Boy, you blinded me with your looks so now I don't care!

  7. SadFace298 on February 17th, 2011 12:49 pm

    Someone gave me this once.

  8. TheUnknownNoob on February 17th, 2011 12:50 pm

    The maker of this valentine was like the PS3.

    No game.

  9. steveblob on February 17th, 2011 12:57 pm

    Wait … is that the mini-gamecube controller? That thing was brilliant for wave dashing in melee

  10. GameboyPATH on February 17th, 2011 1:05 pm

    I chose you because you're cheap.

  11. Jade Catima on February 17th, 2011 1:34 pm

    It's just that I can't find the right way to touch you.

  12. RemielChibus on February 17th, 2011 1:46 pm

    Also, there's a turbo button so I can go really fast, but I peter out too quickly.

  13. Fhantinabox on February 17th, 2011 1:56 pm

    You forgot these *passes sunglasses*

  14. MasqueNoMercy on February 17th, 2011 2:07 pm

    youre all i got but we just can't seem to work together anymore. i got used to you being broken for so long but as much as i try to fix you theres nothing i can do other than move on. let's be honest it was fun and i never thought you were perfect but you were perfect for me. and yet, you changed. i cant press your buttons like i used to. you became so unyielding and stiff that we just cant even play anymore without me worrying you will just fall apart.

    im sorry, its over

    im getting an xbox 360

  15. invadingduck on February 17th, 2011 2:44 pm

    To be perfectly honest, I only got you for multiplayer…

  16. DM1293 on February 17th, 2011 2:47 pm

    Revolver Ocelot says NO TURBO ALLOWED.

    Looks like you'll just have to find another game.

    I dunno Shawn, I'm making a note here.

    Huge success.

  19. darkdan1100 on February 17th, 2011 3:06 pm

    Am I the ONLY person who lost the game when they saw the controller?

  20. invadingduck on February 17th, 2011 3:21 pm

    invadingduck's words echo: "There is a time and a place for everything but not now."

    Use YEEEEEEAAAAAAH meme responsibly.

    He might not understand how much of a success it is. You'd better overstate you satisfaction with it a bit more.

  24. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:20 pm

    And your buttons get a bit sticky during play, and a lower part of you begins to move on its own over time, but your "autopilot" mode needs a lot more work. However, you're not cold and stiff like the others and you're slightly easier to fit in luggage so I can't complain.

    …I'm now trying to figure out at what point was the line crossed and how many times did I circumnavigate past it.

  25. Marzen on February 17th, 2011 5:24 pm

    SHAWN, THE SUCCESS OF THIS PICTURE IS GIVING ME A FUCKING BONER.

    Like that?

    ….Oh, and c-c-c-combo breaker.

  26. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:25 pm

    Hey, it's quick, easy, and always available, which at this point in the comment chain translates to the fact that Ocelot is a feminist (which we can no doubt trace back to a lesson he learned due to a Soviet Reversal of a situation of domestic abuse, no doubt done by the hand of The Boss, although it might be less of a "In Soviet Russia…" and more of the fact that the Boss just beats up everyone).

  27. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:28 pm

    The *facedesk* caused by this damn controller
    Has damaged my head

  28. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:30 pm

    I got mine only because I didn't want to get passed my younger brother's after he was done using it.

  29. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:37 pm

    The irony is that the 360 can't be moved during play and has numerous design flaws that result in malfunction during play. /captainingoftheobvious

    The 360 must be made by MadCatz! /horribleattemptatsarcastichumor

    It all makes sense now! /seriouslyyouneedtoquitalready

    There seems to be something wrong with the code at the end of my messages… /kingsayshibitch

    Oh… that explains it… /scoreisnowtiedat133each

  30. MasqueNoMercy on February 17th, 2011 5:41 pm

    well my response was more personal experience… me and all my friends loved smashbrothers on the gamecube and ran through about 4 of those controllers (this started when the wii was about the come out too, i went out and bought enough controllers for everyone twice because the original gamecube wireless controllers were awesomely made) but when the new generation came out we all jumped about the 360 express and went around in circles a few times

    also there does seem to be something wrong with the end of your messages, you might want to see a professional about that

  31. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:44 pm

    You're like my first car
    You're a hand-me-down that is barely still going
    I've tried to touch you up with a few extra things, but it's only prolonging the inevitable
    Your death will mark a new beginning in my life, where I will find something better suited to my needs, and will get me farther and support me better, and shall eventually serve it's purpose and be sent on, though you will always be the one I remember the best for being the first in this chain.

    No, Hallmark didn't accept this one either, especially when they found out that I planned to make full use of the "open for a surprise" technology of their cards.

  32. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 5:50 pm

    I actually liked my MadCatz, though that was more because it absorbed the greatness emanating from Tales of Symphonia to be unleashed in Melee games later on with White Marth, and it then absorb the tears of opponents who lost to "that gay looking emo teenager." Come to think of it, that glowing red dot and twisted design also struck home for some reason.

    (And it was still better than a Wii controller for Brawl, but that's a whole different rambling joke)

  33. darkdan1100 on February 17th, 2011 5:53 pm

    That's against the rules isn't it?

  34. TheKingOfGraves on February 17th, 2011 5:59 pm

    Oh, we both loved Smash Bros too, and played with both original gamecube wired and MadCatz controllers (whenever a Wavebird was involved in a game, it was someone else's so there was no chance of playing that), as well as went with the 360 into the new generation.

    However, Ace happened to get the MadCatz controller more often and eventually learned to prefer that one (as of the 2 normal ones we owned, 1 was his brother's, who didn't play it enough to break it in, and the other one ended up messing up), and we both have a ton of problems with the 360 (especially since we ended up exchanging the one we got twice on the same day, only for it to fall over and go Jack-the-Ripper on a new game that very day)

    And yes, he knows about the problem (and seems to have corrected it), but know this: he deserved it… again.

  35. Darth_Destro on February 17th, 2011 6:01 pm

    I'm….I'm…..I'm not sure how I feel about this.

    My wife got me a MadCatz controller for Valentine's Day.

  36. Deep Thought on February 17th, 2011 6:04 pm

    That comment hurt to read

  37. JesterJoe on February 17th, 2011 6:56 pm

    Need we start the list of PS3 games again?

  38. JesterJoe on February 17th, 2011 6:56 pm

    Can't let you turbo that, MadCatz.

  39. JesterJoe on February 17th, 2011 7:00 pm

    I don't normally play Brawl, but when I do, I prefer the wiimote and nunchuk

    <img src=http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=206329&type=card>

    pretty sure I won.

  41. Rocker23220 on February 17th, 2011 7:17 pm

    Well, that list will end quickly…

  42. Rocker23220 on February 17th, 2011 7:19 pm

    OBJECTION!!!

  43. Rocker23220 on February 17th, 2011 7:20 pm

    I've already won, so I need not worry about losing anymore

    Also, everyone else just won except you :P

  45. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 7:47 pm

    Let's jump on the number of new Pokemon that people actually like instead.

    …We are trying to make a shorter list, right?

    Oh, wait, let's list out the number of long running franchises whose latest releases are on the right track (we can include upcoming ones so the list will be longer). Let's see… er, um… never mind…

  46. Rocker23220 on February 17th, 2011 8:04 pm

    UMAD?!

  47. TheKingOfGraves on February 17th, 2011 8:28 pm

    What are you talking about? He dated AI that were all about the whole "Destroy/Enslave the (sometimes 'inferior') human race" who often inhabited robot shells (ha, guess that's another point for me, eh Ace?), only to move onto a few of his co-workers (yes, they are all like that). What else could an Umbrella scientist be refer-

    … GODDAMMIT!!! Ugh! Get this fucking mental image out of my head! Dear God, why?!

    I'm going to go see if on of my co-workers has anything to get this out of my head (At this point I don't care if it's some Animus related thing or a power drill)…

  48. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 8:33 pm

    …Apparently I crossed more lines than I first thought. Whatever, I'm still calling this a point in my favor.

    Score now stands at
    Ace: 151
    King: 149

  49. Jackthehedgy on February 17th, 2011 8:44 pm

    I don't know about any of you but every mad cat controller I had broke the next day. The only real reason I any of them was for turbo.

  50. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 8:54 pm

    Why would I be upset that Dante is now a heroin addict, or that Silent Hill seems to be ditching symbolic and creepy monstrousities for zombies, or that Samus now has some incredibly creepy Daddy issues, or that New Vegas happens to be one of the buggiest games in recent times, or that FFXIII turned out to be one of my least favorite JRPGs due to myriad of problems (and let's just ignore 14 for now), or that RE5 happened to be worse than RE4 while a certain game about assassins happened to have 2 great sequels, a fact I'm NOT bitter about, no matter what a stupid bastard of an Abstergo logo wearing a monocle and top hat says!

    (to be fair, there are actually plenty of series that seem to have gotten their newest installment on the right track, but that's no nearly as much fun to work into a joke)

  51. TheRedGrunt on February 17th, 2011 9:02 pm

    No no no. You mean no games.

  52. Deep Thought on February 17th, 2011 9:09 pm

    Those puns were horrendous… GLaDOS will not put up with such insolence.

    (I need an Aperture Science avatar w/ Hat if I'm gonna switch)

  53. TheAceOfSkulls on February 17th, 2011 10:30 pm

    She can come here then and talk to me about it, though I must warn her, I know how to deal with AIs (Thanks a lot King for revealing that, you bastard. My only consolation is that it officially proved that you still have not mastered being a Karma Houdini).

    (Below are two for you to check out, though you'll have to edit in the tophat and monocle. Both of ours were done with GIMP, utilizing the line tool for both the edges of the hat, as well as selecting and then filling in it, and stroking the line of a circle and lightening up the inside for the monocle, though word of warning: King had much more difficulty with his due to the monochromatic color scheme, which the Aperture logo is

    Since apperently it will end quickly, and I got a -1 from my comment, I take this as a personal challange.

    I will save you the pain of copy and pasting every single game from gamefaqs though, and list some of the most popular ones, because apperently someone is drooling too much over their XBox live or something to not notice them.

    InFamous
    Sly Cooper Collection
    LittleBigPlanet
    LittleBigPlanet 2
    Disgaea 3
    Cross Edge
    Call Of Duty (yes, all of them arefor PS3, and you know what? Online is free!)
    Metal Gear Solid
    Final Fantasy XIII
    Devil May Cry 4
    Eternal Sonata
    Assassin's Creed
    Assassin's Creed 2
    Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
    Ratchet And Clank
    Marvel Vs Capcom 3
    Rock Band
    The Orange Box
    Unreal Tournament
    Batman:Arkham Asylum
    Soul Calibur IV
    The Sims 3

    I will continue if I have to tomorrow.

  55. JesterJoe on February 18th, 2011 1:38 am

    Also, inb4 Sony fanboy rage, since I'm not a sony fanboy, I'm more of a Nintendo one, it's just that 1) The PS3 has no games is mostly stated by Xbox fanboys, which will never accept that another system can be half as decent as theirs, and 2) it's an annoyed dumb meme, which isn't even considered a meme on knowyourmeme. It's worse than card games on motorcycles, because at least there was card games on motorcycles, while the PS3 does have games.

    i really hope my last comment is at 0 caus of a -1 troll…

  65. JesterJoe on February 18th, 2011 4:16 pm

    And it also would of been an incorrect statement, since I am not a Sony fanboy, it's just that I don't see why any system should be insulted directly.

    They seem to be all the rage again, more than half of my newest comments got slammed like that.
    Also, sorry about that, it was like, 3 am when I wrote that.

    You're the only controller I care for… because the other ones are nowhere to be found.

  71. SonicsmyName on February 21st, 2011 11:00 pm

    My MadCatz controller broke.

    Is that a bad omen? ;__;
