"Just to be clear. We're all still rich and white and will suffer no professional consequences from any of this, right?"

Guys keeping full head of hair into their 40's can be the worst thing that can happen to them. This dumbass probably thinks he's really cool.

"This is unacceptable! Defrauding people is our job!" - Walmart

I would honestly prefer spending time with these two over the Swiss Family Robot.

I lump all these next-gen QB's together: superfast, mobile, dual-threat, yadda, yadda. The League seems to have figured out him and Russell Wilson the way they did Michael Vick. If RGIII is a shit passer now then what's the difference between him and Geno Smith? Was he just freakishly fast? Or fast compared to a

Wait, he's the second coming until his leg explodes and he can't run now all of a sudden he's Ryan Leaf? Eli had five picks yesterday.

I'm inclined to agree. The short term thinking of corporate profit models militates against course corrections. By the time the shit hits the fan you're John Riticello or whatever from EA and you just hit the door and out pops the golden parachute. Game crashing bugs are the next guy's problem.

Amen. I'll pay for Elite BS and buy the same map from two games ago and even log onto your stupid company website to read about the main character's daddy issues IF when I turn on my console I can hop online and have fun with my buddies or just run around aimlessly looking for daedric bows in spider caves or whatever.

By that logic wouldn't today's sedans should cost a million dollars because of all the advanced amenities they come with? Cars are faster, safer and more technically complex than they've ever been. You can start your car with your phone now but a Honda Civic is still going to set you back the roughly same amount as 10

I don't buy it (No pun). I get that they landed on the comet and kinda screwed that up but that's a global undertaking with near infinite unknown variables that you get one shot at. Getting a working build to gold and out the door is not without precedent. Someone said it upthread - they crunched the numbers and

If a car, or DVD, or rice-cooker, or phone, or basically anything else launched with significant parts not working, or not working as well as advertised, it'd be slammed. People would demand their money back, and they would get it, because there is an expectation that when you pay money for something, it works.

It's just like movie studios that don't screen films in advance for the press. They know it's shit but they also know dudebros will still go see it opening weekend as long as there were boobs in the trailer.

We're not landing a spaceship on a comet. You can build a video game that works as long as you don't try and do it on a quarterly basis.

Was it the same with the Original to 360/PS3 transition? It feels like devs are pressured to hit release dates regardless of product status.

But I already started tearing out parts of books I didn't agree with. I had sheets picked out and everything!

Breaking: Average women photographed. More as story develops.

"Diverse" is fast becoming my least favorite word.

That's weird. He doesn't look like a sexual predator. At all.

What is behind white dude's congenital inability to not only display any sort of empathy but also to pretend that one woman and/or person of color participating in some capacity in a field historically and in practical terms dominated by white males is not evidence of equality or meritocracy?
