@Wowzur: It's one thing to demand someone be online for a multiplayer game, it's another to demand someone be online for a single player one. Maybe during installation, but considering wireless networks are still occaisonally spotty even at full capacity, it's downright insane to demand someone be online at all times…

@selderane: Yes and no. Try not to think about it too hard, your head will collapse on itself like a hollow egg at the bottom of the sea, which is such a common occurrence that it spawned a useful expression. ... yep.

@Dodge2002: LEDs! NOT LASERS. JESUS CHRIST. The only way it would become a laser is if they decided to make the lens also a sorta-mirror, and put another one on the opposite side. It's basically a fucking computer monitor!

@Jackstick: No lasers involved. Light Emitting Diodes. LEDs.

@Pete D: no lasers involved. Where did you see lasers?

Sounds like a refined version of that old, unpolished, and barely playable DS game. It had a good concept, but it's execution was awful. This looks way better.

@Brett Ryans: He might. Baraka still has claws. Scorpion still uses his grappling hook. Maybe Sub Zero carries around liquid nitrogen?

@Serge.: People are heavier.

@gunluva plays the hopscotch on the pro circuit: Probably not a coincidence, kurtz and the dynamic duo hang out together a lot.

@billy61: If you have self control, you aren't the intended target. They only precision aim when someone feeds them. When you feed them, you basically tell them you are 1. Listening 2. Vocal and 3. Irritable.

Still less pervy than dead or alive.

@billy61: I disagree. How does one measure effort when replying comments? Character count? Phrasing? How well thought out it is? No. It's not more effort that it requires, it's more emotion. A troll seeks to induce a feeling of anger, of righteous indignation that will last as long as possible.

@yourcitylovesyou: Hmm. Must not be a PC gamer then. If you were, you'd be pissed at ubisoft too.

Well, as stated on the actual blog post/comments, not all the 'pirates' are pirating. Some pooled their cash and bought it for a large amount, since some or most of the participants didn't have a credit card/wasn't in a paypal approved country, or just wanted to go for a high-score.

@RigAudio: he also uses a far more interesting welder.
