Nick had the stronger argument. Portal tells an amazing story in novel interesting ways.
In The Sims the storytelling is incumbent upon the player. Not everyone tells a good story. Furthermore not everyone's life is the basis for a good story. Finally I'm sick of all of those "I starved someone to death" stories from The Sims.
Patrick almost came off as a dick in this but ultimately, Patrick is THE SHIT! and as for who won, nobody. I don't think you can really compare a story that is crafted by the player to a story that is crafted by expert writers. Its all subjective.
I appreciate Patrick's argument but if you take the question for what it is, "which game tells a better story?" Then it has to be Portal because Portal actually tells a story, The Sims requires the user to tell themselves a story and thus the game is not actually telling anything... if you want to be literal about it, which I clearly do here.
I can't believe Patrick picked a card with no story. He would have to really sell his argument to win that, and he didn't. I liked the fact that he was a total jackass, but jackassery alone does not a winner make. Nick wins.
As far as utilizing the medium better, The Sims (and therefore, Patrick) wins out. However, if I had to give the win based solely on the story told and its presentation, Portal wins hands-down.
As far as this argument goes, I'm giving it to Patrick.
He looks like a fucking Jew

Nick definitely won, because he didn't wuss out like Patrick did. "I don't need that other minute!" Pfft, coward.

It's creepy to think that something like 5 years separates them right? They're both "20 year olds" at least which is super weird to me!
I feel like there's a better argument lurking there for The Sims.
