I have yet to be shown what is lost if we take the more cautious approach and not use children (note the verb) for commercial purposes, in any fashion, until they reach the age of majority and are no longer children.

Both my kids have done modelling and it’s not a big deal if you don’t make it a big deal.

Shirobako should be mandatory viewing for today’s anime fans. I know that after I watched it, I find myself being much more sympathetic to TV-broadcast anime, just because of how absolutely grueling it can be to complete an episode and push it out on time. You can still say that stuff like this is “inexcusable”, but…

Bill Sienkiewicz would give it a weird feel no matter how bad the writing...

Too bad, you would be so proud of me.

I get you’re just joking, but I don’t really get what Disney sequels have to do with this.

This actually isn't weird or obsessive, it's industry standard behavior. Pantone guides like this exist for pretty much everything, from corporate logos to cartoon characters.

Continuing to pop out kids while in such a volatile industry/situation seems like a terrible idea as well. You know things could go south at any time and can barely afford to raise the kids you already have yet you continue to have more? Just putting more and more people through the wringer of moving constantly with…

Seriously. I'm a real stickler, and even I wish people would stop crying about not getting this thing. In 4 months after launch, there will be new colors and options ANYWAY. Probably even the smaller, more pocket-sized unit.

Except Link didn't have the "experience of a grown man" - according to the text in Ocarina, his spirit was sealed for seven years until he was old enough to wield the master sword. He didn't experience anything during that time, and experience is what separates children from adults. Furthermore, his body couldn't…

I just scrolled down the entire front page and no actual piece of news about a game, just stuff about art, food, fan videos, cosplay... I'm not trying to be an ass but am asking seriously, is there a Kinja site dedicated to game news? I thought this was supposed to be it? I don't know anything about the sister…

At the end of the day, I still prefer Nintendo, the game-first, business-second company that they come across as, as opposed to the business-first, games-second mentality of so many other greedy companies.

What else are you supposed to assume? That the commenter is noting the ridiculous use of advertising in interviews, which is painfully over the top. The CUTV thing is there, but not in the middle at all, and the fact that you focused on it says nothing about the OP and a lot of things about you. Think context.

That is incredibly depressing.

I admire Tyson's work but his arrogance is not befitting a scientist. He seems convinced that his theories are the only ones that count and that's straight-up bad science. I'd hate to see how he reacts when peer reviews don't go his way (scratch that, I'd love to see how he reacts).

When the majority of gamers are just shooting at shit and watching shit explode and playing as generic gruff voiced buzz cut white guy with a chip on his shoulder and a need to avenge the death of his wife and daughter then the "read a book/go outside" line is absolutely necessary.

Hey Pot, meet Kettle.

the house style seems to be, "Write as if you are an expert, in a tone assuming that everything one needs to know about a subject can be found in your article."

"Doesn't he still make racist and rape jokes all the time though?"
