The embedded links to other articles made this extremely confusing to read. Especially since you're putting links in the article itself.
I feel you there. The trope is a little old to be anything refreshing.
If anything, I hope they don't go too 'bro-dude-nuke-tacticool' with it and make it a little more serious.
In Japan the dude would've been arrested on the spot and "forced" to confess his heinous crime. Even if he held out, his name would be publicly smeared, he would lose his job, his friends will shun him, his famiry would disown him, his life would be over.
Hmmm let me see. Despite the fact that the entire press conference focused on TV & required Kinect integration, by the end there were more questions than answers. First off no one from Microsoft gave a clear & concise answer as to how game certification works, and why there's even a fee associated with game trading.…
As long as that living room is in America, right?
Joke's on her! That's a male power fantasy!
What if every movie made was the Fast and the Furious 3? Wouldn’t that be effing boring after a while?
HOLY MOTHER OF MONKEY MILK
I came into this thinking she would be documenting the abuse she may have received face to face at work by the people she works with or meets on a daily basis.
Oh, the onion-layers of passive-aggressive fallacies in that sentence! Implying everyone else here disagrees with that broadly-accepted premise, that this game is representative of a lack of inclusion in gaming, or that the portrayal of sexuality in this game is inherently gender exclusive, etc.
Jesus and the British are right. Nudity isn't offensive; it's funny.
Reading this makes me feel so sad and disappointed. All I see here is a man delightfully displaying his undeserved victory to the masses. After publicly shamming George for nothing but his art style and a harmless joke your continuation to push your agenda is almost sickening. This is all goes to show who the juvenile…
See- this I find is interesting. One the one hand, people want to preserve culture. But on the other, they want everyone to submit to their view of 'right'. We're moving so hard in the direction of don't be exclusionary to anyone, or offensive to anyone, that soon things are going to be a lot more boring.
It might be best for the largely English-speaking Kotaku audience if you put up the official translation of the message and/or the link to the english version of said-message.Might be a little less worrying than what the somewhat misleading (but understandably so) headline implies.
Wonder how many people will google Faxandu after reading that...
The fact that for you playing such a game would make someone a mysoginist is EXACTLY what the quote is about. You set a moral bar which DOESN'T EXIST, nobody made such design choices due to mysoginy, nobody plays the game because he's a mysoginist. YOU find mysoginy, shame and degradation in something made for fun.
I agree with your post about his insult. Also this article feels like a back handed apology. I myself can't respect this guy, no matter how noble he tries to make himself out to be. We also have people bringing up the picture the artist posted as an insult to his sexuality. The only thing in my mind is that Jason…
I am a prior US Army Combat Medic and awardee of the Bronze Star for valor during combat operations. Thusly, you may initially dismiss my opinion as voice of bias. I hope it will still be given impartial consideration as I share my view. One right I hold unequivocally dear is the right granted to me by the First…
