His Hitman example is a perfect instance of what I'm talking about. He essentially ignores that, immediately after the bit in question, she explicitly talks about how the games she's talking about do typically offer some token punishment to the player (as in the case of Hitman), but that it's usually trivial.

He also

If this is going to turn into an MRA thing, I'm afraid I'm not super interested. That said, I absolutely think there's a valuable discussion to be had about violence and men and the way that we often dismiss violence against men (particularly in domestic abuse situations).

The thing is, her video series isn't that

This is where the problem lies: a lot of people buy a 3DS specifically for Pokemon, for instance. Or for a dose of Mario. Or whatever. And once that person owns a 3DS for that game they are likely to buy more games since they already own the hardware and they cannot get the "Nintendo Experience" on other platforms. If

Of course there are other factors involved! Like culture, history and political situation. Actually believing that everything that's happening in the name of Islam in various parts of the world is 100% due to pure, unadulterated religious dogma inherent in the very tenets of Muslim philosophy, showcases enormous

Almost 3 years ago, before Harris O'Malley became a weekly contributor here at Kotaku, he shared something of his that, for me, marks one of the earlier signs that something was very very wrong in the culture of video game players.

People have been demanding that games be taken seriously as an artistic medium for the last decade, an the second someone take them up on that, and decides to actually critic the medium in a way one would normally be critical of any creative work, people absolutely lose their minds. They cannot handle it. On top of

I've thought "I'm going to kill" many times in my life. But I never said it out loud, let alone at anyone, let alone on a public forum where I conduct my business for everyone to see.

Not shifting goalposts at all. Just looking for the most complete information possible. Don't tell me the industry hasn't studied this from all directions.

And guns don't semester to stop them either. It almost seems like they could be the whole focus of a game.

Such, SUCH bullshit. When we say something, we are told we don't mean it. When we are raped, we are asked if we said "no". How can it matter, if "no" means "yes"? If I say "yes," and a man has sex with me, does that mean he raped me because I meant "no" because of the code? The mind boggles.

"...maybe because it's a marketing ploy. But so what?" Because it's a classic comedy and the war against men should be fought elsewhere. Don't drag this great movie through the mud just to sell a movie to women. What this reboot idea says to women is, "You're nothing but an underrepresented demographic that we

"... it was a big rock..."

You mean 'Battleship Pug-temkin?'

Scorpion for the win...err...fail!

Well it's a Japanese game, so there has to stupid hair, and plastic doll-like faces.

Jesus, do people not read anymore? I freaking said I don't condone it. God.
