I don’t know. A lot of people would think that if imaginary animals are a trigger for you, that you probably should just allow people to have their opinions about your opinions. If pixels arranged in a fashion that evokes dogness have the power to affect your personal economy, maybe that video game money should go…

This is the equivalent of someone who has never seen Star Wars being confused as to why the trailer for Episode VII is a big deal. If you’re not a fan, it’s a little harder to be impressed. Sure, they want to bring in new players, but the Fallout series has always been pretty heavy on fan service. It is impressive to…

Since most JRPGs put you on a rail, it’s likely you’d hate fallout. Since it’s original point and click days, it is a game that almost takes pride in letting you get lost. The jump made in F3 continues that, littering the world with so many little details that you find rabbit hole after rabbit hole to fall down. Every…

Let me guess, you are so insecure that you unable to take other people opinions without insulting them.

And yet here you are. You really shouldn't be shocked by now that Kotaku runs columnist style articles. They do it a lot. Kotaku isn't just a hard news site. If you don't like it, don't read it, don't count the paragraphs, and don't comment. All you're doing is feeding the click counter, which undermines the affect…

19th century trains were huge chunks of steel on wheels...which were also steel. Also, by the time he made the train, he'd been working on it for years longer, improving and tinkering with the original design. But this car wouldn't have been at that later point in time. The original time machine was very primitive.…

Canada in a Civ game would be both precious and amazing. May the Mountie Tanks drown the world in a river of maple syrup! Scramble the jets! Give the order to "Take off, eh!"

and yet it is ok in the example from this story of gamergate fanning the flames with ridiculously false and easily refutable story because it fits THEIR narrative? If gamergate really is about ethics in gaming journalism, they are as bad if not worse than anyone they are firing shots at. That is the most beautiful…

and gamergate has a very obvious agenda when it comes to Kotaky and Sarkessian, so what's your point? Kotaku is debunking propaganda from a group with a very destructive agenda. All they did is point out factual inconsistencies in this article. How can you have a biased article that is based on refuting lies? Do you…

Nothing like being the guy who shows up in the comments of an artist's obit to say his work was no good. Seriously, way classy stuff. Hopefully people will be able to muster equally kind words for you when your time comes.

your gender, or actual sexual performance?

Yes, and it works perfectly well in some bizarro bubble universe where drunken club bros welcome and appreciate constructive criticism. You are at best naive and at worst a trolling asshole here.

Interface is great, but only if you've got something to interface with. You can say the others are lazy to use third party developers, but I'd say it's the opposite. If they followed the same model as Nintendo, we'd be up to our nostrils in Crash Bandicoot and gaming would be much worse off. Yes you get a lot of…

I don't know if you are a griefer in GTAO, and I have no way to verify it. However, based on the level of your discourse in the forum, along with your arrogance and stunning blowhardery, I'd not be shocked in the least if you were not also an unrepentant cunt ingame as well. Good day, sir. May you continue to enjoy…

It's not that Nintendo aims for the bottom, its that they aren't even playing the same game as Sony and MS. Nintendo does Nintendo. It is their goal to be the best Nintendo out of all the other Nintendos....which is still just themselves. They release intriguing tech, but it doesn't make up for the fact that they've…

you were on debate team in high school, weren't you? I can always tell. The concise, fact based arguments, the top notch elocution.

But I digress, if you would have read my post, you'd have seen I wasn't just talking about GTA. A lot of games have the "fuck you, yay me rah rah rah" toxic assholes. It doesn't even have…

Their approach to controls is different, but all Nintendo does is re-release the same dozen games over and over and over and over. They take no risks with content, and they push no envelopes other than interface. Nintendo only does Nintendo, but it does Nintendo really well. But if you don't like Mario or Zelda or…

But they aren't really keeping the old guard interested if all the old guard wants to do is do the coward stuff by stomping on new players. If you've ran out of level appropriate stuff to do and that's all you're doing now, what's the point? Go get a new game.

sparkling interpersonal skills. Your wife is a lucky lady

The point is here, you are over there. No, people don't stop playing because someone shot them. People stop playing when a community is full of assholes and griefers. There are plenty of games I stopped playing because of the community. I miss playing the battlefield games and even the GTA multiplayers because the…
