I was just playing Battlehearts on the recommendation of my friend (and I forget what Podcast - either Joystiq or Giant Bombcast) for the iPhone. It is AWESOME!
It's dramatic for dramatic effect. I agree with you on a lot of the issues, but they made a game to highlight how easy it could be homeless. Calling them morons for that? Seriously bad taste.
That's such a buddhist way of thinking of it.
How about not paying for it, period. I can refuse service pretty easily. Although I'm fortunate enough to be around 5 auto-repair shops in a 20 mile radius.
You might want to check out Survival Kids on the Gameboy. A lot of it is like that. It even makes sense too. (Gather stick, rope, and hook to make fishing rod.) It does simplify a lot too, such as eating green plants instead of red plants. I don't remember much from it, but I remember the game inspiring me to finally…
@wintersault: But they never told us to show them our junk.
Mmm... sweet sweet delicious rage. Nom nom nom.

Some people say 'Madden' and they immediately line up for the next game. Other people, the word is Halo. Or Call of Duty. Or Zelda.
@The Anti-Fanboy: After reading that, I'm kind of on that boat too.

@narutogameking: I was telling you to go play those games because you had a old-school mindset of resisting change to video games. But then you called them 'fucking games', and implied yourself hardcore.
@ryangreen02: What? When was this time? Maybe before the communist revolution - pre-WW2, I'm assuming. But since I was born, I've seen nothing but 'made in china' inferior products.
@Dehydration: Pshaw. They probably stole their New Years celebration from some other country.
@Gargus: What turns you off turns me on. I haven't played the game yet. But I'm loving the poke at CoD. Bulletstorm is all about the wild ride. I don't think you should ever take it seriously. Look at the name!
@neoliminal: I think we all should send them this email.
@narutogameking: Sounds to me like you're bitter about a bad purchase. And sorry, I don't have a Halo Kinect. I'm a PC gamer. And if you never played a text adventure or a flight sim, then I feel bad for you. You're not as hardcore as you think.
@zibzer: There's a honor system in place!!
