Carl Johnson is nothing more than a next-generation clone of Ness.
From: Phoenix Flattener | Posted: 7/20/2005 3:11:51 AM | Message Detail
(Obviously, EarthBound and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas spoilers will be forthcoming. 'Cause, duh.)

Ness, Carl Johnson. Carl Johnson, Ness.

Checklist!

-- Commonly seen wearing a baseball cap.
-- Beats the crap out of annoying men, elderly women, bald men, hippies, rival gangsters, political radicals, and basically whoever else he runs into (usually with a baseball bat).
-- Rides a bicycle.
-- Has a posse and travels with his gang backing him up; his gang, incidentally, is heavily armed.
-- Uses firearms, explosive devices and other assorted weaponry.
-- Has a sister who handles the more business-oriented aspects of his life.
-- Befriends struggling musicians, helping them to advance their careers.
-- Is forced to wander around in the desert for a while.
-- Gambles.
-- Hangs around with an Asian guy who has control over his entire community.
-- Associates with a super-genius glasses-wearing techno-dork.
-- Has no problem attracting women.
-- Has to fight off upwards of six cops; clashes prominently with a high-ranking police officer.
-- Eats pizza and hamburgers to keep his strength up.
-- Returns to his home very late in the game; the place pretty much goes to hell.
-- Really shouldn't have placed too much trust in that fat friend of his.

Those of you who have followed along with me to this point have probably already realized that THEY'RE THE SAME DAMN PERSON.

Honestly, no wonder so many people like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas -- it swipes everything it can think of from EarthBound!

Carl Johnson is nothing more than a black palette-swap of Ness, pulled on us ten years after the fact by a company that thought we wouldn't catch it; obviously, the voters of today's Summer Contest matchup weren't fooled. All is as it should be.

Again -- they change a couple of colours around and expect to fool us.

For shame, Rockstar. For shame.

You'd get shot for playing anything made by Nintendo in your "hood"? We'll stay away from your jacket then.

Anyway... people who would shoot people for that should be decapitated in public.

Only here, most people agree. There's a reason Sony has sold more than 4 times as many consoles as Nintendo.

Sony is also in massive debt and doesn't make money.


Nintendo does.

How old ARE you exactly???

I guess I should stop playing Resident Evil 4 because it's on a Nintendo system therefore it's a kiddy game.

A game that's more fun and far gorier than GTA is kiddy because of the console it's on.

They're still less popular, proving my point. More people like Sony, especially when you look at how many of Nintendo's 15 million consoles are owned by children. It is a kiddy system whether or not you will agree, that's who it is marketed to.

You wouldn't really get shot, but like I said, we wouldn't be friends anymore because you'd embarass us. Grow up, what's next are you going to start playing with your action figures? Nintendo was cool back when you were 5, not now.

how old are you if you still care about what's cool and what's not? Grow up and stop being so insecure

Hey, I played Earthbound today.

I just recently beat Kraken.

Also, I found Fire Emblem 4... god I hate those oversized maps...

>_>

CJ's a more developed character than Ness, without any psychic abilities.

Other than that, they're fairly similar.

Hmm really? Most little kids I know own PS2s.


I know roughly like a dozen little kids with Cubes or someone in their family has one.

Most people I know with a Cube are older than I am. And I am 18. I kinda want a Cube but I'm gonna wait for the Rev.

Only goth kids say stuff like that, they listen to that crappy emo music and talk about how they are not insecure but they are too. Why else would they be listening to people screaming about their skin crawling?
