As shameless as this is, the problem isn't limited to Resident Evil. I noticed this with Super Meat Boy, Geometry Wars 2, and Devil May Cry 4's leaderboards. The DMC4 example upset me the most, because I actually was ranked #14 with Bloody Palace mode at one point. While I certainly didn't expect to retain my spot…

Damn, now that's an obscure '90s Nicktoons reference. I hope I'm not the only person who understood that sentence. :/

I live in Nashville, and this city's lucky enough to have the Game Galaxy Arcade in two locations. GGA is full of old school titles that you remembered in the glory days, and have console setups for fighting game enthusiasts. You have to pay $10 to access any of the machines (except on discount $6 days), but since…

Holy shit. This nearly put me to tears.

I was almost tempted to make a burner account, so I can vote for this twice.

Bleh. The link didn't embed right, so I made a duplicate post. Delete this at your discretion, mods.

I know a lot of people are giving you shit for your initial response, but I thought the very same thing when I originally spotted the tweets, and I'm 28. Then again, I'm used to reading and writing long replies (and often get criticized for the latter), so I'm definitely not twitter's ideal user.

The format doesn't…

As a Titans fan, this post made me laugh hysterically.

This game is at least worth watching to see how hilarious and godawful both teams are performing. Nothing beats the Titans sacking Geno Smith for a safety...only for them capitalizing by fumbling the kickoff return right back to the Jets...and then the Jets's…

Thank god I wasn't the only one who imagined a Nas "One Mic" parody of this.

And it was developed for the underpowered N64, to boot. Too bad Asmik/AKI lost the license to develop for the WWE after No Mercy, because I had oodles of fun with that game and its predecessors (WWF Wrestlemania 2000 and WCW/NWO Revenge). I never could get into the Smackdown games, no matter how hard I tried.

Being a Titans fan (2-10) ain't much better. The week our teams meet up is going to be a glorious train wreck.

I'm not sure if 343 is entirely to blame. Microsoft could have just as easily pushed for a holiday release, even though the game clearly wasn't ready, because they desperately need games to justify buying an Xbox One. Plus, most launch game failures has more to do with publishers rushing games for target dates, even…

The stunt probably won't hurt their bottom line compared to their other shenanigans, but it's still a pretty awful message to send, whether it was intended as a joke or not. Even Acclaim wouldn't have stooped this low back in the day, and they've done some stupid crazy stunts for publicity.

Sigh, do I really have to point out the obvious? If you're a company that supposedly represents gaming to the public, pranking people for cheap advertising doesn't exactly garner long term trust. Exacerbating the idea that girls can't play videogames is even worse, especially after shit like Gamergate.

Yes, really. Between Gamergate, the monumental grief some female nerds receive just to prove their nerd cred, and websites like "fat, ugly, or slutty" exposing the casual disdain too many male gamers have towards female gamers, stuff like this really doesn't help reverse the trend.

Maybe if these were Youtubers clearly…

I came for the Activision bashing. I stayed for the reminiscing SOCOM fans and the H-Hour recommendation. :)

Hmmm. I don't know. Maybe people who don't want to see a gaming retail brand stereotype female gamers as clueless morons, because of a shady prank?
