You're right, he wasn't trying to directly insult actual gay people when using those words. However, just using those words in any negative manner is insulting, so I can see why some gay Blizzard fans are upset.

I can't tell if he is really homophobic or just added the word "homo" as an insult to his vocabulary in the same manner that some kids say "that's so gay". Either way this guy is an idiot. Shame on Blizzard.

As crappy as it is that this movie isn't going to be an accurate adaptation, the whitewashing does actually make sense. As you said, Hollywood clearly wasn't going to make a film in Japan, so we already knew it wasn't going to take place in Tokyo. Once you change the setting of this film away from Japan, does it…

"(five if you include the reflection in Portal.)"

In case no one actually took the time to visit the actual link, the guy wants $14,000 not to simply develop the game but to live off of for the year which he will develop it. In other words, if he gets the $14,000 by November he will quit his job and make the game for a year, then release it for free.

I live in Florida though I've also seen a Kmart like that in New York.

From my experiences with the few kmarts I've been to, that seems to be the norm.

You could also say the reverse argument that they just didn't want the game reviewed by a Modern Warfare fanboy who would be biased to give it a negative score.

Why do your parents foster such anti-Americanism? Also, the actual act of "trick-or-treating" is not an American invention at all, so that shouldn't be a problem in the first place.

I've never had a problem with big portions because 99% of restaurants will let you take home your food and make a second meal out of it.

That's true, but like how most people still believe Napoleon was short, these kind of historical myths are ingrained into our culture.

I live in north Broward and I travel to Orlando quite often. Lakeland couldn't be much worse, so I woudn't say it's way too far from south Florida.

Did I see Joe Hisaishi's name at the end of that trailer? This game has now become a must-buy.

Is this game based on a film's story? No.

I'm jealous. Old toonami is great and there's nothing better than watching old television shows with the original kid's channel commercials in between. It just raises the nostalgia level so much higher. Also, I remember renting Dinosaur from Blockbuster. I can't remember if it was fun though.

I'm not from L.A. (never even been to California), so I don't know how it is there, but I can confirm that from my experience I've never heard a single other American in person refer to the game as "football". Only "soccer". I'm guessing there are plenty of Americans that understand that soccer is football, but most…

I get the death part and the sex part, but where in the headline did it make you think it was specifically a game developer having an 18 hour orgy?

Football is the correct term in Australia, yes, but this isn't Kotaku Australia. Considering how the majority of the authors (i.e. everyone but Luke) would never use"football", it's easy to see how a reader might be coming into this story expecting to read about Madden. Therefore, it really would be beneficial to…
