To be fair, he can also drop Bottle Caps when you beat him.

Reddit will still exist. Forums seem to be dead or dying now outside of that.

You must be thinking of something else. It was playable at E3 2004 (presumably this is the build that has now been leaked, as it sounds like it has the same missions) but nothing playable has ever been released publicly.

uhh... why?

Hopefully they put an emphasis on streaming to our phones, since they’ve already established that we all have one.

Wow, hope this doesn't end up harming all of the goodwill Blizzard has been carefully fostering with their fanbase lately.

Normally I would agree, however a paid subscription service is easily more accessible than buying new hardware whenever gaming takes another leap forward. I used to use the OnLive service way back when I was in college and couldn’t afford any gaming hardware.

This would be a good thing, if Criterion wasn’t a shadow of its former self. Criterion founders Alex Ward and Fiona Sperry left after EA moved 80% of their staff to Ghost...so the majority of folks who worked on Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted are now at Ghost, or gone altogether, and won’t be working on whatever NFS…

Look, I understand, but he’s just a dumbfuck kid with bad parents. People serve less time than that for shooting someone here. Worse, prison time will just turn him into a real hardcore criminal (US prisons are not for rehabilitation, they’re for criminal training).

Needs more Mike Meyers

These people are supposed to be the scumbag dirt of the slums. If the scumbags don’t act like scumbags doesn’t that kind of ruin the feel of a dangerous slums?

The very creepy, very rapey thing? The thing they were exactly trying to show, because the crimeboss doing the creepy thing was clearly accused of only wanting the prettiest girls for his own pleasure? How would you suggest they show it? Have the disgusting man be very courteous and gentleman-like? 

Eh, Blizzard isn’t in as bad a state as a lot of people make them out to be. There are definitely some issues with Activision execs inserting their influence more, but.

WoW is on it’s bad expansion part of the cycle, something that’s been going on for over a decade. Overwatch is fine (although if Jeff Kaplan ever…

In my opinion, this article feels a bit damaging to general cultural progress if you’re trying to handcuff someones intent to something they didn’t intend. Historically, there is a million ways we all could be up in arms against every facet of everyday life if we want to deadlock ourselves to the negative and ignore…

Thank you for reassuring me that there are other intelligent sane people on the internet that also think the outrage should be at appropriate sources.

This article is an EXTREME stretch. The game is meant as satire- it’s clearly so. It’s driven home in game. Not everything has to be a moral /existential validation crisis.

This feels like the most manufactured of manufactured controversies. I Googled “savage” as requested, and got the following as the first result.

None of the definitions feel inherently racist, and the initial adjectival definition feels like it serves the game perfectly. Sure, the developers *could* have chosen a…

trying to manufacture controversy where none exists

uuuuuugh

Well you’re throwing the baby out with the bathwater here and this article isn't "gamer outrage," it's level-headed criticism of a product
