Ding ding ding. I worked on AnyBully (GC, PS2, PC), Happy Feat (GC, AntBully, PC), Transformers (3Ds), Rango (X360,PS3), SceneIt (X360,PS3) ... and others .. I knew this space well. (Now I work on AAA games we all play! A whole different set of issues!)

You don’t know anything about game development or working in general. Incredibly delusional post. Go experience some reality.

I don’t really think it’s for “mystique,” Nintendo usually just doesn’t really lean into “behind the scenes” stuff that much. I think in this case they just want the new VA’s performance to stand on its own without making a big deal about it.

As somebody who was laid off in August and is still having trouble finding another job in the gaming or tech sectors, things suck quite a bit right now!

I mean intent is the difference between manslaughter and homicide though, and they do carry pretty different sentences.

You’d really want a professional laptop just for work, especially in the legal profession. Your work requires that you record/document your time spent on cases for purposes of billing and at the same time track anything you research or access that requires passing the bar to get an account to log-in to that lets you…

I’ve always wanted to know that guys story . Marvel!!! There has to be a one shot of that nameless SHIELD guy locked in a deadly battle with Arcade , where he has to complete a load of achievements to stop the Heli carrier being destroyed by a nuclear warhead in the shape of pacman. Oh and then Iron man swaggers in…

Wait, is your argument seriously that he isn’t qualified to correct others’ mistakes if he himself makes mistakes? You forgot the apostrophe in “someone’s” to make it possessive rather than plural. So I guess your comment is invalid now too. So is everyone else’s comments (including mine) because it turns out we all…

With any hope these cards will go the way of the McDonald’s sets and have zero value so the scalpers end up hustling backwards.

I could live a long, happy life without ever seeing another rape depicted in a movie or television show. 

So this guy could get out and shoot people instead of just hitting their cars with a pipe?

Maher’s rich. If he were truly worried about the people on his show, he could just pay them. It’s been done before.

At least one bear had a good time in central Florida this weekend.

There were a handful of great reactionary mods that added MORE pronouns to the game. I liked that, and had a chuckle.

Imagine being such an asshole that you need to a mod to remove a choice for you and only you that you weren’t going to make anyway just to make yourself feel better. 

Here’s an idea. Instead of blaming publishers for this practice, which is clearly making them money, perhaps blame the rubes that actually pay for this scummy practice.

Fucking THIS. Yes, it’s a manufactured problem, but an utterly inconsequential one unless you’re, say, reviewing the game for your job as a critic.

odd, seems like the take here is “if you could release it early, why not do it for everyone”.

Dont get what the issue with a 3 day window for people who want to spend for a digital deluxe. Have we reached that level of entitlement where any value added concept that isnt available for everyone is a bad thing? 

What a weird series of statements...
