There's no moral justification for such excess in a country with millions of children who don't even know where their next meal is coming from...if they get one.

How about "I'm all for enjoying what you've earned, but beyond a certain point displays of conspicuous consumption are just garish reminders of the way the rollback of progressive taxation leads to an ever greater concentration of wealth in the hands of the few, who then use their vast economic resources to tilt the…

if i paid for it YES THE FUCK I AM. But since nobody knows yet we'll just wait it out.

It isn't the inconvenience that is the issue, it is that the companies are essentially robbing us for services available at much more competitive prices elsewhere. So you are paying more for others, but getting less, with the only reason being the greed of the provider.

And that's why people continue to dwell on Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian and Brianna Wu? None of the Gamergate stuff has remotely been about how AAA publishers interact with media outlets. The ethics claim is a fig leaf for 'aggrieved' gamers having an existential crisis.

There was no 'GamerGate', there was no movement, there was not a huge outcry.

He's such a child.. but to be honest, who would take that to be a "threat". To me, that isn't a threat. It's an empty threat.

I was on the fence about this year's version... until this. Absolute purchase now.

Well, he's a racist,a moron and a prick,which makes him your average American.But he can be funny and knows a shitload about boxing so he gets a pass from me.

Think football field. Its always the same but the movement of the players and their decisions make it interesting.

"Maybe they don't have to be these colossal, summer blockbuster-type products."

I'm so happy that this idea is starting to take root.

"do you have a used new 3DS"

E-sports are skill-based challenges that rely heavily on reflex and physical dexterity. You can certainly make the argument that those aren't sports, but then you'd have to say the same about games like golf, air rifle shooting, bowling, etc. Otherwise the definition is inconsistent.

You want us to be Dan Hsu? Or you want us to be transparent (as we have been) and ensure we try to avoid, and in the worst case disclose all possible conflicts of interest as Stephen promised we would do when he addressed this all last week? I don't know what else you're asking for from Kotaku.

Huh. Didn't expect that.

Zelda 1 no sword challenge- you can get every item and heart and get to gannon without touching a sword once, on both quests. so much fun.

Ehhh, maybe it's similar, but not the same at all. I mean, she's an indie with fairly specific, offstream agenda about depression, sex and anything quirky. If, and I repeat if she's sleeping around and cheating - who knows what she needs, wants and maybe plans to achieve with sex. It's personal, doesn't have to be…

I think they started from a jealous/scorned ex-boyfriend earlier this week. This is all kind of... too much, though. I have never seen anyone care so much about sex they weren't even involved in.

The ridiculous pitchfork mob after Zoe Quinn because she made a fucking game that manchildren are crying about is ridiculous. People have doxxed everything they can about her, dug up every past relationship. This is psychotic, it is beyond psychotic.
