What I find more disturbing (since I'm used to retarded people writing retarded bashing articles) is the fact that CLANK is beating ROBIN and BLOB (from A Boy and His Blob, I'm guessing) for "best sidekick". But, it's G4. Anything found there is guaranteed to be stupid.

That guy's writing is awful.

Well, Clank does have a better character design and a more interesting personality than fucking Ratchet. I hate that thing. Whatever the fuck it is.

Robin's a pretty horrible sidekick when you come right down to it and really think about it. He's a teenage Batman without the brains.

And Blob is more of a co-star than a sidekick.

G4 in general is awful.

I like how he and the article he linked to just don't understand that Tails is a kitsune, and not inbred.

"Kitsune" is just Japanese for fox. And that includes the non-mythical, single tailed variety.

Robin got better than Tails!? I'm sorry, but I don't see Tails running around screaming "Leapin' lizards!" or some other stupid shit like that... At least Tails has a brain...

And Inbred? >< I'm getting those bad images from The Deliverance again...

Tails was never stated to be a kitsune. He was only stated to be a fox. He's not even a sidekick in the first damn place. Tails only started hanging around Sonic because he wanted to be stronger and was kind of pissed at Sonic's speed. They don't even stay in contact with each other. After Eggman is defeated everyone goes their separate ways until the next time.

I don't really notice that. Sonic and Tails tend to hang together between adventures. Amy forces themselves into their group ocasionally. And Cream is usually with Amy.

Everyone else has their seperate lives, though.

I just think that Sonic likes to take a helluva lot of vacations in between adventures. Since, you know - he can RUN to Tahiti and back within a couple of days.

As I already stated, they are one and the same.

I know, Chris, some people just don't get it.

I'm more disturbed by the fact that the majority of the characters on the 'Best Sidekick' poll are furries.

As if his voice in the American version wasnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t annoying enough, the Japanese version is un-listenable.

"Unlistenable?" Is that even a word?

And I also manage to see the Worst 10 Ten sidekicks. What the hell were they thinking putting Luigi in 2nd place, let alone in that list at all?

Because (if it was Filter), it's a poll. By G4 forum-goers. Which should explain a lot, because as terrible as G4's programs are, their main viewer audience is even stupider.

Maybe it was a joke? The reasons the author cited were sort of off the wall.

Since I don't know jackshit about G4, I'm gonna pretend I do and nod my head in agreement.

Hell, he could be a huge Tails fan, and is just putting that to get other Tails fan's thongs in a knot.

Be glad you don't know anything about G4.

Also, they had a poll of the Top 10 Worst Games of all Time there and Shenmue was number 2--beating such titles as Superman 64 and Revolution X starring Aerosmith. XP

In case you want to know want to know what was number one, it was those CDi Zelda games.

Knuckles Dawson · Post by **Knuckles Dawson** » Wed Feb 23, 2005 10:40 am

Dude, Where can I find the sailors?

Shenmue was 2? That's bullshit.

Tycho, at PAX, put it best. "In Shenmue, if you go into a dark room, find a flashlight and it doesn't work, what do you do? Do you give it power with Magic? No. Do you use a special move to get it to work? No. You go to the Goddamn store and buy some fucking batteries! And a cola and some milk for your kitten. That's how games should be."

Man, that's depressing.

Not so much depressing as just a sign of how stupid the community is.

That's an awesome quote. Except for that last part, since a lot of games are fun since they escape reality. But that's exactly how Shenmue should be, and what makes it so fun and unique.
