I have been playing League of Legends since pre-season 1. I did not participate in Ranked in for Season 1, scored Gold for Season 2, and have barely participated in Season 3's ranked, but am currently Silver 3. I am not the best player in the world, but have about 3000 games under my belt (my brother, ranked Diamond…

No, now you're moving goalposts. This isn't equivalent to quoting someone. This is the equivalent of quoting a paraquote, which is valid. It is a reinterpretation of the original quote, but holds the connotations added by the second author who revised the quote to fit his or her agenda. You wouldn't want to attribute…

All I see is a lot of Correlation implies Causation. With no evidence of causation, all that can really be assumed is that people with negative attitudes are bad players. This isn't anything new, but it is a generalization. And why no stats on players that improve their attitudes over time? Maybe having a bad attitude…

I honestly want to understand why it is that these articles always assume that its only women who feel "fear, disappointment, isolation, sadness, resentment, and self-doubt" in the workplace? I mean, I'm not going to bullshit and pretend that sexism in the workplace isn't a problem. It is, and probably more-so in…

And again you're blissfully ignorant of the context in which you say anything you say, thus why your logic is circular in nature. Your entire argument chains requires at least one part of it to be true, but the parts of it you're claiming to be true require the other parts to be true, thus it *is* circular.

If it was so good, why have I never heard of it?

People: 1

It's not false credits. That's where your logic becomes circular and why you are wrong. It's 343's Cortana we're talking about, not Bungie's.

Because you are defending that statement. You came into this chain of comments defending that statement.

Thank you for the respectful response. It is always nice to get a perspective on something that I don't know enough about, but you are right that no amount of reading can replace experiencing it yourself. I'm sorry that your attempts to seek employment here have gone badly, but at the very least, I do appreciate you…

From my favorite webcomic, fanboys:

To flip a gaming convention on its head, we must first become Tinkerbell. Wait, I meant Navi.

If this wasn't Paypal, I'd gladly spout on about how they're doing a great job to prevent fraud. UNFORTUNATELY IT'S PAYPAL SO ANYTHING THEY HAVE THEIR POCKETS IN *IS* FRAUD.

I'm going to go ahead and swallow my knee-jerk reaction before it gets me into rage-mode. I didn't mean to imply that you needed to change the media to correct me, and had hoped that the statement, "I'll take your word for it" was enough to suggest that. What I was trying to imply was that I am not the only ignorant…

Sports and Shooters dominate the top 100 selling games of 2012 (I'll get back to you on 2013 once its over). And many of the ones that aren't are Eastern-developed games.

Then correct the media who says they hate FPS games. I'm only echoing what has actually been reported. I'll take your word for it, but it would probably be best to get someone who actually covers Japanese Gaming (like Kotaku) to issue a statement so others don't make the same mistakes. I don't live in Japan, so my…

To further my point, X-Com was not released in Asian territories.

To be fair, Western influence is almost completely missing from Japanese games. We had a huge generation of almost nothing but FPS and, well... Japanese gamers don't like FPS games, whereas most Western developers had Japanese games shoved down their throats growing up.

On a side note, I do feel the Metroid Prime series would have performed a lot better on the charts if it wasn't bolted to the Gamecube/Wii. I loved that little box, but I feel a large portion the audience for that game didn't feel it was worth buying a Gamecube or Wii just for Metroid. I mean, those games run in…

I think the death of the traditional console would be a good thing. Largely, all consoles do is drive sales of games down and funnel profits into hardware manufacturers who by and large don't actually deserve them. I mean, you can argue Nintendo and Sony deserve money for their first party titles, yes, but licensing…
