Because Nintendo is a company, not a person, and holds no values of its own. It's value is "making money." If enough people complained, a company would capitulate to anything. If the Nazis had won WWII, Nintendo would apologize for including Jews in its games. They would do anything for money, like almost any other…

She's not proclaiming to be your savior. If you don't care about the features in this game, then you don't care. SHE cares about the features, so she complains.

I wish there were same-sex couples in this game. If I were a writer for a games site, I'd write about it. And it wouldn't be for anyone else but myself. …

I just don't see why Nintendo would have to accomodate those other opinions

Oh good, I was wondering when the "I have no problem with gays, as long as they stay quiet and invisible and never complain about anything" camp would show up.

Apparently you've never read a review from Kotaku, or most major publications. The first person hardly precludes it being a review, or even a good review; it's a report of one's experience, and using the first person removes the illusion of pure objectivity, which is impossible. And obviously, this isn't a full…

"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it…

I am so disappointed in this website sometimes when I see the comment's on Patricia's articles. I genuinely do not understand the vitriol and personal attacks. Meanwhile, you're the ones clicking on the articles, no one held a gun to your head and I think it's pretty clear you just click on them to complain and be…

I'm reviewing the game. So it's literally my job to do this, and in doing so, will hopefully inform people who might care about this. They in turn can seek out other games that might fit their needs better, if so they wish.

And "gift" is not pronounced "jift." Ever.

I agree that vernacular changes, and that at this point either way is pretty much accepted, but the idea that a hard G "makes more sense" doesn't sit well with me. Here are some popular arguments:

Perhaps if your profession is PR, community management, and social media management, you should know what to say, what not to say, and how to say things... as... you know... your qualifications for the position.

Lololol I look forward to the Kotaku commentariat falling all over each other to say that "people are too sensitive" and "freedom of speech" and "CENSORSHIP!!11!" and all those other clichéd rote phrases sublimated from a culture devoted to the pursuit of individualism and no interest in the collective.

Boo video auto started

I don't think I could have conveyed the sarcasm any more if I tried... Sorry everyone, I'll make sure to state that my sarcastic comments are actually sarcastic to avoid future confusion!

Wow. Waluigi can be a fucking jerk sometimes.

I'd say he should play Watch_Dogs...but he plays that already with the NSA

'Filed to: PANTS'

These actually look fascinating. It's quite simple to get the shape from the loom but we don't do it today because it just takes too long. I think the closest technique is socks. They weave/knit them with a machine and just sew along the bottom and you have instant sock. I hope whoever made these pants are, where ever…

Seemed worse when taken out of context? Is there any context in which this is not despicable and repulsive?
