It makes me uncomfortable to know that, for instance, the Boston team’s only tie to Boston is that Robert Kraft owns them.

The weird thing about the Blizzard Arena is its high production value and its small, late-night-TV-studio-audience capacity. I dunno if this is the kind of thing you can spread out to multiple cities, even ones the size of Dallas or San Francisco.

Life is built to be obsolete once you’re bored with it.

Here, lemme try this:

Last year, Activision included a remastered version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare with every copy of Infinite Warfare.

Replying to my own comment because I can’t find a way to edit it: my post was not strong/sarcastic enough and almost reads as if I am actually saying Gamergate is filled with open-minded people who set politics aside with regard to playing games.

Plot twist: Gamergate is actually filled with people who don’t let politics stop them from playing a game, apparently.

When the free game is 1) available for a limited time and 2) available to everybody at the same time, it has the opportunity to create conversation around the game that otherwise wouldn’t exist.

Somebody who’s played Super Mario Bros 3 twenty times, lol.

Don’t understand why you sound so confrontational. I like the idea of the free game being a limited time event (as it was previously announced), but if people find value in the Netflix thing, then I am happy for them. I just won’t use enthusiastically.

Didn’t say I was upset, just less excited for it. Also I have said at least twice now that I absolutely understand the value in Netflix or XBLG/PSPLUS. I am glad Nintendo is creating a service you will find valuable.

I think you misunderstood (or I failed to convey) that the “putting up one game with multiplayer that online subscribers could play for that month, and then at the end it went away” is what I did want (I called it the “Game of the Month club” which might not have been clear). The Netflix or XBLG/PSPLUS thing is what…

I’m likely in the minority here, but...I was kind of looking forward to their Game of the Month club thing? A Netflix-style service (or at worst, an XBLG/PSPLUS style service) will be an inexpensive way to introduce more people to more games, which is always a good thing. But I’m probably just going to log in long…

Because its target isn’t necessarily straight males 21-35?

This. Regardless of whatever my fellow OKC fans feel, their reaction has been embarrassing and often classless.

I’d also like to add that Oklahoma is a college sports state where free agency is not an issue, and the kids on college teams tend to only leave when they graduate or move into pro leagues. So having our…

And finally, not to go all coastal resident, but the Bay Area’s identity isn’t entwined with the local basketball franchise and superstar nearly as much as Oklahoma City’s seemed to be.

Minor correction: Pickleman’s is a (dreadfully mediocre) sandwich shop, not a bar.

Are you talking to me that way because you think I'm a woman? I'm a straight white male just like all the other shiteating trolls on this site. I'm just beyond ashamed to be associated with a subset of people who treat women the way they do.

I have played plenty of FFXIV, but that's not the point. Your argument doesn't make enough sense to properly engage. But please, for the love of god, do not elaborate further because again, I do not care.

Whatever point you're trying to make about FFXIV, I truly don't care.
