It’s not underhanded if the consequences are stated in the document that was signed. It’s a bummer, but an NDA is a legal document. At least the NDA breakers aren’t being sued.

Chances are the penalty for breaking the NDA are actually spelled out in the document signed.

Oh well. Shouldn’t have signed the NDA if you intended to break it. The only thing weird to me is that the testing was done on personal machines. I’ve tested games through VG Markets and it involved going to a specific site, sitting in a room with a bunch of Xbox 360s or PS3s and testing on those machines.

Well, crud. I accidentally laughed and thought it looked good. And I don't even like Adam Sandler. You know what, as long as I'm in the minority here, I'm just going to get this out of the way right now: when everyone else starts drooling over the Ready Player One movie, I'm probably going to hate it just as much as I…

By all means, go ahead and list here all the people I know.

I know several people who are not only sane, but much, MUCH more than 'reasonably' intelligent, and they are still Christians. Do I understand it? No, I don't. But I am curious.

I remember my mom once telling me, when I was in middle school, that she couldn't understand how people got by without faith in some higher power.

Careful, you're not adhering to the Narrative.

I was pretty vocally anti-gamergate for a while. How could you not be given all the reports? One of my friends hadn't really heard much about it and asked me to explain it to her. I jumped into the hashtag to do some quick copy/paste of all the hate. Proved kind of…

Actually, they thought they could do it for $5k, they just ended up getting 11.

So my question would be, why would anyone back a project by a team who admits they have nothing to prove that they can make a game at all?

Scam?

I play my Vita more than anything else. I enjoy the indies and have started to take a liking to some of the more unique titles being brought over from Japan. I really just have two gripes with the machine.

The majority of gamergate tagged posts I see on Twitter are only hateful if they are coming from anti-GG folks. In pages and pages of pro GG tweets, I saw ONE that devolved into name calling (and that was directed at some of the guys in the 'benefits of gaming while male' video).

I've been saying that forever. She honestly could have been a footnote by now instead of a headline. I almost backed that campaign too because the topic interested me. For some random reason I decided to watch the pitch video though. (I usually don't.)

Wow I hate to see this happen. I've been around there since before they were even calling it Joystiq. They were far from my primary game news source, but I still visited daily. Browsing on mobile was a pain, and the fact that they tweet the same stories for a week was always annoying, but I still enjoyed jumping on…

I still enjoy reading the site, but only from home. You're right, trying to browse the site on mobile was a nightmare.

I enjoyed the first two, but I think the third one is 'okay' at best. Not a popular opinion.

Yeah. Specifically, my buddy has mentioned how sudden noises (like the fireworks depicted in the comic) can send him into a panic induced violent reaction, which is problematic if it's just the kids being noisy. He's getting help and doing better...but I don't think he'd find humor in the comic. And for him, neither…

Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing. I've got a buddy who actually deals with this and he doesn't flash back to video games.

Nails, wood, tape measure....sounds like the first thing you should build in the new SimCity is a Lowe's or Home Depot.

I have a Mario amiibo on a shelf in my game room which is themed with Mario.
The only other one I care about is Rosalina.
Right next to him. Because Mario + Rosalina forever.
And no, I have not yet used Mario in game. Can't really say I plan to. I just bought it for the figure.
