Yeah youre misunderstanding. They didnt tarnish the value.

Do you and a massive amount of Kojima fappers just not grasp that Konami doesn’t give a fuck...

Listen Im not saying they didnt have options, they just chose to back out of AAA gaming.

So you burn all of those bridges, which constitute a real investment of time and resources into your AAA brand? Hell, they could have spun off their video game ventures and simply sold them to the highest bidder for some solid dosh. Who’d buy it now? The name, at least, would certainly be worthless.

Also, I just want to add that your username is excellent. Please tell me it’s a reference to the band.

It’s a missed opportunity, for sure, in the long-term. The reason why you diversify is to protect your company from one-dimensionality, and also to explore whether there may actually be larger profits to be made in other areas. Lower potential profit margins may be one of the costs of that exploration. Now listen, I…

And that was their mistake, failing to recognize that Kojima made the Konami brand in gaming. By losing him, they have lost any and all claim to AAA credibility in the industry.

Great question. If only the public had the information to verify whether such a policy existed, there would be no reason to ask it. What we know is that the US citizen child of Anwar Al-awlaki—also a US citizen himself—was killed in a drone strike a mere two weeks after his father’s death, even though he had not seen…

I’m sure not going to lose sleep over it, that’s for sure.

Because he became an enemy combatant by giving aid to the inheritors of the AQ legacy and by being a recruiter for their cause. Congress allowed this. There’s no controversy here.

We know virtually nil about what our government is doing under the cloak of national security. The president can have pretty much anything justified by his legal counsel in this atmosphere, thereby rendering him immune from prosecution for anything later found to have been in violation of the law. This was a huge…

Who cares? It only makes the role of the games critic more essential. There are ridiculous numbers of books being published at any given point in time, but you don’t hear many book critics talking about how it’s too much to handle. Let the games flood in. We’ll rely on y’all to lead us to the good ones.

Tough times when even the most liberal president of all time would let agencies off citizens just for being labeled a threat.

You’re correct that everyone who looked the other way is now going to reap what they’ve sown with this megalomaniac in charge.

blah blah blah... liberals. Shut up.

Are there any substantiated reports from users who have been unsubscribed from channels against their will? I think that would be the proof positive that something fishy is going on. If no users are complaining, that would seem to indicate that Youtube’s telling the truth about deletions of spam accounts.

Semantics. Point being is that you would rather of risked peoples lives to capture this asshole. Good luck selling that. It’s a simple concept “don’t act like an asshole and we promise not to extra-judicially assassinate you”

Yeah, I agree with that. Various groups have been trying to “get to the bottom of it,” but they always run into the “national security” brick wall when it gets to the courtroom. We’re technically not even supposed to know that a “kill list” exists, so we’re deep into catch-22 territory here. You can’t effectively…

Killing the Kid was a fuckup that i think everyone can get behind. But arguing for due process for people that take up arms against our own soldiers is bullshit.

I’m not sure who even identifies as “liberal” any more.
