You have turned it into a cult practically.

Good idea! Let's close Kotaku down (this is a hobbyist blog, after all), hide in our basements, and never mention our gaming habits, like did in the 80's! Maybe we shouldn't have pushed for all those currently awesome comic book to movie adaptations that have been coming out. I mean, back in the day we were seriously…

Yeah, it seems that you just ran into assholes in general; no matter what they were a fan of, they would have still been assholes. In fact, I can't think of any fan[boy]base that I hadn't ran into such assholes before(including plenty of obnoxious Bronies). Just dust the lint off your shoulders and move on.

Actually, EA won "worst company" because an army of entitled gamers couldn't comprehend that EA practicing sound corporate tactics is not worse than pile driving the economy into the ground (Bank of America), owning and abusing a monopoly (Comcast), or covertly nickel and diming customers without their awareness, and…

Yeah, this thread is just silly, we really ott to move on...

Out of morbid curiosity, I went looking for whatever it was.

Hasbro makes its money selling the toys. This is free advertising for them, thus why they hadn't made a move on any fan projects in regards to MLP (and they have had several opportunities to do so).

The number of comments towards the disgust of bronies far, far outnumber the fanboy responses to MLP at the moment...

A friend of mine is a TA at the university I go to. Brilliant guy, part of Mensa and on full scholarship to doctorate, and even teaches classes in the summer before getting his graduate degree in astrophysics. He is also a brony.

$20 can be a week of groceries for me...

First of all, just because the French sent them a bunch of blue uniforms did not mean that that was the first time they wore uniforms. As I mentioned IN THE FIRST PLACE, they were designated to wear either brown or blue uniforms. In fact, the first official military company of the American Colonies was under Colonel…

Dude, really, do you not have any reading comprehension skills beyond the 3rd grade?!?

Congress adopted brown as the official color for uniforms in 1775. But there was a shortage of brown cloth, so some regiments dressed in blue and gray. In September 1778 Congress received a large shipment of uniforms from France. The North Carolina Continental Line regiments received blue coats faced with red collars,…

Yeah, but it's also like Asperger's. A lot more people (a LOT more people) than population studies estimate suddenly suffer from it, without a proper diagnosis. Symptoms seem to suddenly 'make sense', and don't consider that many other reasons are the cause of their ailments.

Dark blue uniforms are Colonial soldiers, powder blue uniforms are French soldiers. Those are Colonial soldiers he's slaughtering...

Um, Colonial soldiers did wear uniforms, they wore a either brown or a darker blue uniform than the French, in fact. It was very necessary on the battlefield to be able to tell friend and foe, so while many colonial militiamen didn't have uniforms.

And George Washington kinda lied and turned his back on the French when they went to war against the British (refusal for the the Continental states to get involved in foreign wars regardless of promised obligations... how times have changed)

Um... read the link, please...

Well, yeah. You see, for having to buy EA's online pass, you get the multiplayer stuff for free. Since the single player game doesn't require online pass, and can be played on a used copy, you have to pay. Interesting how economics work.
