"Stop liking things I don't like!" ~Archaotic

If you don't want to buy it, I get it, but why insult people that are fans?

It's not like this was ever an actual election, CoD being popular doesn't stop other games from being developed released. Every year I don't buy CoD and every year I find other games to enjoy.

My Neighbor Seinfeld:

As someone who has read both weekly for almost a decade... sadly, no. Naruto managed to world-build a lot better than Bleach ever did. It's almost as well-thought-out of a fantasy world as Avatar: The Last Airbender, with magic powers rooted in existing belief systems. Bleach has always been more style than substance,

guys can you all please stop liking the stuff that TheDeadTexan dis-likes? He has proclaimed it is shit.

Wait a minute, Anita is asking the government to step in, like Thompson did, to censor games? Citation needed.

There is one massive, massive difference here. Those "people who said that games turned gamers (into) violent and aggressive murderers" were lobbying the government to actually censor those games, by criminalizing selling them to minors. They were, to put it colloquially, calling on the government to "ban this sick

All jokes aside, it is literally buying a piece of gaming history and is not something to miss out on if you've got the funds.

I still remember Crecente's excellent "Now what" piece after the victory. That's part of what makes these past few months of chaos sting so much.

"her crusade to make every game some sort of equal non artistically visioned pile of crap that will never offend anyone."

This reply is kind of silly. Do you believe that people don't have the right to utilize their first amendment rights to use the power of speech to enact change? Also, I'm pretty sure no one is going around doing anything 24/7, so that's also kind of silly. Lastly, do you honestly feel that people trying to enact

They actually don't. I've been to the Daily Show twice, there are no cue lines. There's only a hype man on stage before Jon goes on.

"And there is absolutely nothing stopping people like Anita from forming their own game studio and making the games they want made.."

It worked out great for Brianna Wu after all.

If you are a firm believer in playing something else if you don't like it, why don't you read something else when you don't like someone's criticism? That is, why do you not just vote with your pageviews? Why do you not just make your own series of videos if you don't like what Anita Sarkeesian is doing?

That analogy doesn't work as a lot of people have criticized McDonalds for having a very unhealthy menu and McD's response to this is to include (somewhat) healthier options in their offerings.

How is that feminist bs? Good lord lol

Critique doesn't mean that either. Do you think Kotaku are trying to force Ken Levine to make games the way they want when they write in depth critique about Bioshock Infinite? No cos thats not what critique is. So stop being paranoid.

Isn't that what we all do though?

What was the context in which Jon Stewart said "fuck you" to Norway? Because depending on the circumstances, that's either really funny, or in poor taste. Having watched enough of the Daily Show, I'm gonna assume it's the former, but again, I'm lacking context here. Maybe link a clip?
