We have a good candidate for worst Gizmodo headline of the year.

If the headline is actually in reference to Archie, then it’s one of the most oblique references I’ve ever read. 

I’m sorry but this headline was real click bait. This doesn’t relate to them at all.

People like to pretend that CP is some unmitigated disaster like Duke Nukem Forever or Daikatana when the reality is that it’s a good, albeit unpolished, game that was a commercial…
