Let $R=\operatorname{Spec}(R)$. As before we have $(V(0))=R$ and $V((x-a,y-b))=(x-a,y-b)$ so we have a generic point and a bunch of closed points
What's in $V((f))$ though? There are prime ideals $\mathfrak p$ with $(f)\subseteq \mathfrak p$. Since $f$ is irreducible $\mathfrak p$ must be of the form $(x-a,y-b)$ (if $\mathfrak p$ were generated by a polynomial we could factor $f$) and $(f)\subseteq \mathfrak p$ means that $f$ is $0$ in $\Bbb C[x,y]/\mathfrak p$, so in particular $f(a,b)=0$
So $V((f))$ is actually $(f)$ and $\{(x-a,y-b)\mid f(a,b)=0\}$
Which means that $(f)$ looks like a generic point not of the whole space but of the curve $\{f=0\}\subseteq\Bbb C^2$
