Ha ha, checkmate.

Bow down before Prince Wii-lliam you pitty humans!

"you know you're not allowed to beat me"

What an immature jerk

Royally owned.

In my experience Germans are mustard at video games, so this comes as no surprise.

I hereby challenge Price William to three rounds of Wii Boxing!

The Stakes: The future kingship of England!

Your move, your majesty.

I remember when he played Megadrive (that 'Genesis' for you americans).

When your life consists of having your arse wiped by a palace full of sycophantic flunkys, you got time to hone your skills on Wii Sports.

Guy shoulda asked him how well his mum was at driving games.

@Cruithne:
wow dude...that's low.

Smack-talking on Wii Sports? I guess that's the pinnacle of rebellion you're allowed as a crown prince.
Oh, and Nazi costumes.

@Cruithne: Too soon? Nah.

@Cruithne: point being? (keeping in mind she wasn't at the wheel)

@sooiee115: In England we call that a joke...

@Cruithne:

Dude thats uncalled for. He was probably joking. He's honestly one of the most down to earth people in positions of power in the world. He's been been brought up playing video games, so of course he is competitive.

"the royalty must dieeeeeeeeeeee"

sorry, had to sing along there

Hey guys, I'd just like to mention that the 'glowing red eyes' shots are getting a little played out now.

Can I get an amen?

@sooiee115: Uh, it's a joke.

Lighten up, people.

@HellaBAD:
Personally,I think Naruto hair should be the new standard,but I'm a sick bastard anyways.

Prince William, future King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland

That is of course, if he outlives the Queen and cmon lets face it. She's gonna rule forever.

Hahaha, what gives with some people the Prince was joking. What I can tell he pretty down to Earth while trying to maintain the whole "royalty" thing.

If he lost he most likely would have joked about it to.

What I want to know is .... does he have GTAIV?

As a Brit I have paid enough taxes funding these sponging parasite bastards to have the right to say whatever I want about them.

@yarmy: Germans...??? Where did you get that from...???

It is Prince William...and the other dude are both from England...it happened in Wales...Germany Doesn't even have a royal house anymore....and Wales happens to be in England.

Did you even pay attention in class...or read the news ???

This remark was spoken with a wry smile on his face, said in such a manner as to relax Martyn and cause a few laughs.

I know of few world leaders or future monarchs that are as down-to-earth-self-depreciating as him. When talking to members of the public he often comes across as very genuine and sincere.

I'm not a massive royal supporter by any means, but some of these stories are turning Kotaku in to little better than gutter press; sensationalist headlines appearing to quote verbatim a persons comment, when in fact, upon reading said linked article, nothing of the sort was implied/spoken.

I'm not attacking Kotaku directly but I have noticed recently this -quote-as-a-headine-isn't-the-actual-quote is getting very popular. And yes I know, this complaint isn't directed at THIS particular story.

@yarmy: Germans???! o_O

@RodmanSan: Dude, if you'd read your history you'd realise that the British Royal family are in fact Germans, Sax Coburgs to be precise.
they changed their name to Windsor during the war.

@RodmanSan:
No you obviously just don't know anything about our royalty. The house of Windsor is half German since Queen Victoria married a German Duke.

@RodmanSan: Ooh, just noticed, you said Wales was in England...

You might want to take a look at a map.
England is not the UK, it's just one part of the UK.

@Cruithne: So by paying taxes, it gives you the right to slag off someones dead mother who died in a car crash. Yeah.

You are an arse.

@Cruithne: The royal family make more money for the country than they take. I'm sure you cant say the same for yourself.

@RodmanSan:

@Pentex:

[en.wikipedia.org]

@Cruithne:
Oh damn thanks for pointing that out.
Wales? In England!? I'd best be careful if you ever visit our fair country, in some places that'd be considered a deadly insult.

@Galvanise_:
It doesn't really, it's still a harsh joke but if you lived here you'd be so sick and tired of Diana that you'd start to make cracks like that too. It's been just over 10 years since she died, I'd estimate that there's been more media coverage of her AFTER she died than while she was alive. That's how bad it is, even if she's dead she'll live for freaking ever in the tabloids.

@RogueSquid: Aw, com on dude, surely you know that Luke's tongue is rarely out of his cheek?

@Galvanise_: after the 'public outpouring of emotion' (vomit) that followed that particular death and apparently lasted like a YEAR, yes we do in fact have the right - nay, responsibility - to make as many sick jokes about it as we desire.

I wouldn't do so in the presence of family, mind, but I doubt any princes are actually reading this comments page. (If they are, they better be pretty thick-skinned...)

@RogueSquid: Lighten up!

Please don't give me that old "they make more money than they take" bulshit.
They'd make a damn sight more money than they do now if their heads were on spikes for public display, I'd buy a ticket for that.
Know what sickens me about the UK?
This cognitive dissoance of thinking at one moment we're a free democratic country, and at the same time we have this unelected head of state and people get angry if we dare say anything negative about her corrupt freeloading bastard children and their offspring.

It's time the UK was a republic.

@Cruithne:
Psh, I like being a Kingdom. There's not many left nowadays and it's a nice bit of cultural heritage.

Plus there's much worse drains on our tax funds that are more disagreeable. I'd much rather see those tackled first.

@yarmy: So just because that house had ties with several monarchies means that everyone tied to those origins is german? Well, from what i understood of that wikipedia link, this house has links with Belgium, UK, Bulgary, Hungary, Portugal and even Mexico. So what are you implying?

Ahferfuxsake, doesn't the idea of a good revolution stir the blood?
Put them all up against the wall and machine gun the lot of em, film it and show it to future generations of kids in school, as a treat.

(I think I've been playing too much GTA)

@Cruithne: Considering Her Majestyness has almost nothing to do with ruling the country anymore I'd say the ancient and corrupt parliamentary system was more of a handicap to democracy. And head on a spike was what happened to our only non-monarch ruler the Lord Protector so can any authority get a break around here?

Anyway, Wii digress. William should get a blog for us to discuss this on.

@Cruithne: Wow. Just wow.

I really don't know what to say to this. Just wow.

@Cruithne:

@Odin:

You're both right, but a middle ground is needed. Keep 'em alive (Cruithne you can keep the spikes on ice just incase this plan doesn't work out, ok?) but damn... surely the solution would be to just stop PAYING for the stupid family? Let them generate their own money, then who could argue?

Let it be their duty to generate tourism and cultural heritage. It shouldn't be our duty to foot the bill for it though.

Peace~

I'd be like, "Yo Prince, you wanna money match?"

then proceed to kick his royal ass.

He can talk dirty to me anytime... oh wait, that's not the same thing is it? Oh well, I stand by my statment.

@Pentex: Implying? It was a throwaway joke alluding to the fact that the British Royal Family contains a lot of German blood (George I couldn't even speak English).

@Odin:

I do live in England. I'm not sick of it either. Her funeral was on my 9th Birthday, and I didn't mind then my family paying attention to that on TV instead of me. I was happy with my lego!

@Pentex:
As yarmy and several other people have pointed out, there's a lot of German blood in the royal family. It's a valid reference.

@Cruithne:
Okay now that's just twisted.

@Galvanise_:
Part of you doesn't die when you see her picture in the paper 10 years after her death? After seeing her picture in the paper at least 1-30 times EVERY year since she died?

You have stronger sensibilities than I do then. I just wish they'd let her rest in peace rather than drudging her up every time they need a quick trashy tabloid article.

@Odin: I agree that the media often use her story as a means of making money. However a person such as 'Cruithne' who will never does as much charity work as Diana did, should have no right to make jokes about her untimely death. There was a reason there was mass emotion shown by the public. She was never truly accepted into the Royal family, but she will forever be the peoples Princess. I may be young, but at least I have the damned respect to not joke about someones death, who in my lifetime is still a rolemodel to the British youth today.

@Galvanise_: Oh no you diint!

@Galvanise_: Right.

Princess Diana was a slag, a dirty old slapper who was not only shagging anything in a uniform, but was filmed having sex in the gardens of a house by the secret services.

Gold digger?

How many women manage to conveniently fall into a relationshp with not one, but two different sons of billionaires, coincidence? I think not.
See this is how it works, the establishment screw the people out of their money, then set themselves up as benevolent charity workers, throwing us all back a few crumbs of the money they fucking stole of us in the first place.
And there will always be the genuflecting fools who are only too happy to be spoken down to. If you want to spend your life as a servant of the upper classes, then that's your prerogative, me I've got a bit more self respect to feel the need to bow the knee to any aristocratic cunt. Fuck her, I'm glad she died, I'm only sorry her two kids weren't in the car with her at the time, because now we'll be burdened with them as a drain on the ordinary working British people.

Oh, and don't worry about me making jokes, I meant every word of this.

@Cruithne:

Wow. You really are a grade 'A' prick. (Thats using an IGN score btw).

I see you have fallen for all of the conspiracy theories hook like and sinker. How brave of thee to slag someone off over the internet. I pity you.

@Cruithne:
I don't know you,but your comments are really above anything I've seen here and I hope this site won't have to suffer with you much longer.I guess the star doesn't really mean much in the grand scheme.

I'll go 27 rounds of wii boxing with he lil shit and destroy him. I predict atleast one 1 hit KO as soon as the bell rings. I'm a friggin monster. You can be deft prince, but I'm a friggin monster and you dont want none o dat!

My comments are about public figures, people I have been forced to pay taxes for most of my adult life.
I have every right to espouse a republican viewpoint.

You'll note that I have not stooped to personal comments such as calling another commentor a prick.

@Cruithne:
You disgust me.

Wow, all the king's horses and all the king's men, who woulda thunk it?
Lighten up, the world's full of people with different worldviews, best just get used to it.

@Cruithne: See now you've destroyed you're own argument. Diss the institution as much as you wish but you've never met these people. You're just reacting to the tabloids with equally vapid but contrasting guff.

@Cruithne:

Actually,your comments disgust people not even from the UK.Being glad that somebody died in a car wreck and wish their children was involved?I pay taxes on plenty of things in the US.Never wished any of those people would die though.

@Cruithne:
Words fail me. You disgust me.
