IGN: Gaming's Most Ridiculous Crossovers

IGN: For some reason, every game company seems to think its properties compliment each other so well that they need to join forces. As if seeing Mario snowboarding or playing 3 on 3 with with Kobe is the Reese's peanut butter cups of video games. More recently this trend is getting out of hand (like when Final Fantasy XIII-2 featured Assassin's Creed cosplay). And that's not even the weirdest thing to happen this generation. (3DS, Fable 2, LittleBigPlanet, Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, Nintendo DS, PC, PS3, PSP, Soul Calibur, Wii, Xbox 360)

Nothing wrong with MGS4 or Uncharted in LBP2. They're excellent additions to the game.

Whats so ridicilous about MGS in LBP? Desperate for hits?
AntoineDcoolette  +   456d ago
MGS = mature gaming serious loaded with a bunch of violence, blood, and suggestive themes. LBP = a family friendly game that little children love. Its practically advertising an M rated game towards 10 year olds.
Liquid_Ocelot  +   456d ago
There are more 10 year old kids playing GeOW(much more violent and foul mouthed) than MGS*, I don't see anyone making a crappy article about it.

*Story's too deep and complex for most people to understand anyways.

Edit: excuse my English

^ and what exactly does Gears have to do with the topic on hand?
Starbucks_Fan  +   455d ago
Have you played LBP? I've played levels where blood is everywhere, girls in bikinis, kill famous celebrities. Heck i even made a level with the word "retard" in the title and it didn't get taken down until a day later XD

@AntoineDcoolette,
""family friendly game that little children love"".

Really? You're rather clueless.
I know more adults that play LBP.

And his Gears example was spot on.

@Carlito

Exactly my thought.

@Antoine

so what? its not like the MGS costume cant be view by children.. if they get who he is then they probably played one of these games if not then its just another costume for them..

Yet IGN thinks Squall and goofy speaking to each other normal?

Lol who honestly thought that mixing Disney and Final Fantasy together would make such a great game?

"IGN: For some reason, every game company seems to think its properties compliment each other so well that they need to join forces. As if seeing Mario snowboarding or playing 3 on 3 with with Kobe is the Reese's pea...."

I stopped reading.. they even have a typo(?) on their [bullsh*t] "article"(crapticle) .

I'll copyright this one.. "you can't spell insignificant without IGN" -_-
