Famed mecha designer Shimada Fumikane is fucking pissed. He's posted a photo of the Ace Combat 6 disc snapped sliced in half along with this note, which says something like:
I played it from the PS1 branding up to the PSP one, but this thing I'm giving up on. Until this, I could clear the game on "expert."Know that it's not because of THE iDOLM@STER airplane.
M'kay. Hooray for people with too much money and not enough sense!

He should have given the game to me. =) I need Ace Combat 6 and a XBox360, too. :(
I'm confused. Did he break it because he sucks or because the game sucks?:/
WTF !? Damn i'm stuck on the last level on normal and thought I was frustrated... clearly I was wrong.
Don't fully understand. Is it too hard for him so he got frustrated and snapped the disc in two?
Oh god please let my guess be true, because it's going to be a "point-finger LOL" fest!
Why exactly does he hate it? I have my reason for not buying it(super shady DLC tactics), but I want to know what this guy is going on about.
Nice coaster! Expensive, also.
Aww.. poor baby, is the game to hard for him?
i own a Nailgun*, and one of my dreams is use the nailgun with my copy of Archlord and post it on the internet. But I dont want people to laught at me for buying Archlord.
but because i can only destroy the Archlord CD once, i am still planning the better way to do it. Maybe I sould have a burning or something, or something radiactive, to create a tomb for the cd so no one touch it in 30.000 years...
well.. here is the nailfun, and Archolord.
please dont share this photo
He broke it because he beat every other version of Ace Combat on "Expert" and was unable to beat the 360 version on it's "Expert" setting.
well as i tell my friends: Ace Combat is like Ridge Racer , it accidently ventured on a crap console but will soon come home
@黒天使: @黒天使: Way to miss the real meaning. He's saying the game is too hard on expert.
Hold on, let's clear this up: He said "それでもまあエキスパートクリアまではやったけども。"
That means "Still (even though I hated it) I played it so much as to get Expert Clear" (forgive my sloppy translation; I'm still rather befuddled by another sentence I saw today:「クリントンは何人目のアメリカ大統領ですか?」)
He's certainly beat it on Expert. His reason for hating it isn't given.
@Blind_Evil: so ? he still broke it didn't he ? hehehe
maybe he hated it because it was too hard to beat on expert.
I remember playing Street Fighter 2 on hardest difficulty hoping to never lose a match finishing the game... I always ended up dying on either Sagat or M.Bison once. :( Never finished the game on hardest difficulty without losing atleast one continue. :( I heard you would be able to see all characters endings if you did, but after reading on gamefaqs there's no such thing :(
@Wapanese: It's possible he meant he played it continously to try and beat it on expert.
It's really simple. He's just saying that the game sucks. Until since this one, he really enjoyed the series and cleared every game on expert.
But he just hate AC6 and can't get himself to do it in expert. Nothing to do with difficulty...
Normal people would have just sold the game.
So...why? Too hard? Bad entry in the series? Hates the 360? What?
@Wapanese:
he was the 42nd if my understanding of the question is correct.
as for ac6, my friend said that the achievements are completely ridiculous. maybe this guy was trying to get them, and that turned him into a raging, game-snapping fool.
I know how this man feels to be loyal to a great franchise and be heartbroken in this new generation of game systems. Fuck you, Konami. You broke my heart, you bitch!
So...why does he hate AC6 with a literally violent rage? I guarantee it's better than AC1, which he seemed to like...
He broke it because it not come out Japanese ok super wow fun time console!
Or maybe he's just a fanboy.
@thaKingRocka: Yes, the question makes sense and is easily answered in Japanese and English, but the difficult thing is translating it into English. "What number President of the USA was Clinton?" isn't going to cut it.
@formagezero:
Too funny!
@黒天使: it ventured onto a crap console, but will soon come home...to a crapper console? logic pl0x!!!1
Eh, I don't care here nor there. I've never liked the series so it's not a big loss. Though even if I did enjoy the series, I still wouldn't give two shits what this guy had to say about it.
@EnigmaNemesis: It's funny cause it's true. When Japanese console exclusives go to a non-Japanese it makes them crazy mad! They are very nationalistic, almost to the point of racist, to all outsiders.
@黒天使:
well as i tell my friends: Ace Combat is like Ridge Racer , it accidently ventured on a crap console but will soon come home
and to what wonderful, high quality console will it be going to?
@formagezero: So we need an "original" FF for 360 and they are gonna start terroristic actions against the west?^^
So in the end it it said, that the japanese are the biggest console fanboys of all.(as we allready knew, due to the 360 sells[hardware cannot be all the problem])
I've learned from experience that when you try to snap a disc in half like that, it shatters. The only way he could have split it so cleanly is with scissors.
Also,
@Kermi: No, it clearly says, "In spite of that, I still completed the game on expert." There is no way to interpret his sentence as "tried to complete the game on expert." There's also nothing in there to suggest he "played it continuously."
Here's my translation:
"I've played the Ace Combat games from the no-name PS1 days to all the way through to the PSP one. But there's something about this little son of a bitch I just can't put up with (stomach). Even so, I did clear the game on expert.
And just for the record, it's not because of the Idol Master plane."
Expert?? what a pussy. I'd clear the game on Ace mode, with the Idolm@ster plane!
this is the only true way to PWN a game.
@黒天使: You're a perfect example of what I mean.
@Schabrak: Yeah it would be like the ULTIMATE insult to them. Hopefully it would make them forever hate the FF, and the series would be canceled.
i remember reading this in some other places a few days ago,most people assume he is pissed that the single player portion isn't as good as the previous games?
@黒天使:
Always nice to hang around friends with the same opinion as you. It would suck to actually know someone with a different viewpoint.
/sarcasm
Hmm, to me this just makes the guy an idiot for destroying a 7200yen game. There isnt any getting around that. Then again, if the guy designs mecha for a living he's not exactly normal by any means to begin with.
I loves my AC6 with flight sticks so far. I haven't been able to complete it yet because of all the other blasted games out right now.
@Jesse in Japan:
I've snapped a CD/DVD in half before without it shattering.....very lucky!
What a baby. Its got generally good reviews across the board, check gamerankings.com
SO.... why did he do it?
Lucky Japan still gets the beautiful Namco logos on their games.
We have the god damn ugly BANDAI Namco logos.
I believe he hates it because its on the 360, he did go out of his way to say he "played it from the PS1 branding up to the PSP one" <_<
@Jesse in Japan: Funny you should mention that. When we watched Advent Children in my college anime club and people started asking if they could get a copy, we made a big show of breaking the disc in half while telling them to do the right thing and buy it. The number of pieces it shattered into was almost as impressive as the looks on their faces!
Ah, memories.
*sigh* What a waste.....He'an idiot alright.
@ Jesse: I agree, that looks cut rather than snapped. I'd say Sawzall or industrial papercutter.
@Wapanese: I believe simply "What president was Clinton?" would be an adequete translation, no? We use the same questions for "what place are the ?" etc.
Maybe this is the gamer's equivalent of smashing a guitar?
@Jesse in Japan:
I've managaed to snap CD/DVD's without any shatter, but never neatly in half. Mine usually look like a large mouthed PacMan instead of a nice semi circle.
@okenny :):
Maybe I should start a support group. "If you ever feel like hurting something, send it me instead."
You can suppress violence, and do a good deed! Everybody's a winner!
I'm also pissed @ the Ace series leaving the playstation family...
Screw you Namco!!!!
But does it blend?
Sounds like what the man is more or less saying is "Fucking Namco is a fucking pussy. I'm going to fucking bury that company, I have done it before, and I will do it again. I'm going to fucking kill Ace Combat 6 on expert."
=D
