so this is funny, but it’s also kinda messed up? like, first off, don’t be a dick to developers—who have always been and remain, to this day, human beings—in general. on top of that, sending dick-shaped objects to people has some weird implications! so while I got a chuckle out of this, I don’t want to tacitly approve

Just like people are diverse, so is the roster for this game. There’s a lesbian woman, there’s a plus size woman, there’s a straight white woman, etc. Yes this particular character dresses sexy. So do other real women and your students will see those too. This wasn’t “sexploitation”, this was someone expressing

Okay then, let’s call it the european, australian and new zelandean SNES.

Luke, technically it’s not a PAL SNES, you should just call it the European SNES.

Pretty damn boss article Cecilia, like one that would be at the end of a dungeon or something.

I think all that “devil worship” mass hysteria stuff from the 80's really made D&D conservative. It took most of the sex and “questionable” content out of circulation. Hell, RPGA (as of my last encounter with it) didn’t even

Do you have a contract with Mineralblu or something?

Yeah, I agree. Just hopefully they don’t have to be not exactly undercover be called a moron when they do. Not certain all that shade was necessary up top in the article.

Given that he said he had a blast, something tells me that the players at the actual event likely had no issue whatsoever with him being there. They also probably didn’t even blink at the guy losing to a bad match up, which this clearly was. I’ve seen plenty of times where a professional player tweeted out after a

All this not so subtle shade. Reminds me of 2003 to 2006 in my pc gaming club after school; all the hardcore Counter Strike and Battlefield nerds would go absolute ape shit when the guys on the football and basketball teams would wreck the living shit out of us. The overly nerdy kids couldn’t accept the fact that

Seems like an easy way to raise profile of an event and just make things more fun.

Okay, Kotaku. Can I write for Compete? I used to work at StarCityGames.

Kotaku - a celebration of nerd culture, unless you dare to be physically fit in which case get the fuck out of our world you damned jock.

Man, I know it’s a Deadspin offshoot, but good on the guy! Good players lose two in a row all the time in card games and it sounds like he had the right attitude about the whole experience.

“Cassius Marsh is known for tackling ball carriers as a professional linebacker, but the Seattle Seahawk’s 6’4”, 245-pound frame recently proved entirely useless in the mental athletics of Magic: the Gathering.”

It seems to me that if Magic is something you care about you should be building him up for being such an advocate, why go so negative? This guy seems like a good dude and he has common interest with you, so why not celebrate his contribution to the community?

know what? - i’m really glad to see names from outside traditional geekery trying something inside geekery.

That’s what I’m saying. This is some school yard shit.
