Noel Gallagher has such a way with words, I find. Never before has modern pop music had such an eloquent and evocative speaker, and never before has the videogames industry been summed up so sublimely. Here isa quotefrom the Oasis star, indirectly inventing the greatest videogame concept ever while talking aboutGuitar Hero:
“If it puts little plastic guitars into kids’ hands and fires their imaginations, I think that’s a good thing. It’s harmless fun, innit. I’d rather that genre of video games than somebody getting their fcking head chopped off with a samurai sword while getting fcked by a goblin up the arse with a laser. Do you know what I mean?”
Well, I have no idea what kind of videogames HE’s been playing, but I know I bloody well want them too. I thinkDecapitating Gobling Arsef*ckercould be the sleeper hit of the year if it were ever released. Still, at least Noel is looking out for the kids, he’s always been such an outstanding example to them.
