Lara Croft is Scarlett Johansson..?

You failed to even try to tell me what the original point I made in this conversation was, so I'm afraid I'm going to have to write this off as a pointless conversation due to you having no idea what you were actually discussing.

Go for it dude, and please ignore all of the hateful comments on this article, these people have the emotional intelligence of a toddler and are simply dead wrong.

I'm also going to echo the 'dick' comments. In fact your lack of basic empathy could be called borderline psychopathic.

This is hilarious and so are the replies.

There is no need to be upset.

"And you buy things because they do things better than... other things?"

Uh... they're the same thing...

A "consoleized version of a PC"...

Hurr "EA gives out free games to save their bottom line" durrr

Down with childbirth!

Are you trolling?

Everything in video games is faked?? What are you talking about for God's sake? Everybody knows this. I don't think video games take place in the real world. This has nothing to do with what you said, which was that the gameplay took place in an open city rather than being linear.

No, you don't. That explosion is an animation. That's not videogame physics. There's no physics there at all.

Still so what? We're talking about whether microtransactions are inherently ridiculous. Valve's approach shows that the answer is 'no'.

Only if you compare it to Halo. That's what I'm saying.

You're comparing it with games with awful level design. Yes, Halo repeated itself ad nauseam - this is because it was downright awful. The same rooms and corridors were cut and pasted hundreds of times and it was honestly an absolute chore to get through.

So what? It still makes its money via microtransactions.

I apologise in that case, I thought you were saying anybody who makes these kind of jokes is necessarily a deeply entrenched misogynist.
