who the hell uses a 20 scale for reviews? That just screams
"I want to look special"
The game didnt look that great, but i would bet anything that the whole "racism and sexism" thing is most likely a bunch of BS. We have seen Adam Sessler take points off of God of War Ascension because of "sexism" and the game being "too hard." These are the kinds of people I do not want to be seeing reviews from
Game journalists have created a misogyny narrative which is utterly detached from reality and they have used it to demonize not only gamergate but the gaming community it general. Do I need to bring up the dozens of "gamers are dead" articles?
So don't blame SVU, when you are the ones who were comparing gamergate supporters to ISIS. You are the true architects of this propaganda and everyone can see it.
Its funny how even sites like kotaku are distancing themselves from this trainwreck. This episode really showed how out of touch with reality the anti Gamergate message truly is.
The dialogue is cringeworthy and it feels like it was written by someone's grandma. And the way they portray gamers as violent, evil, stereotypical misogynist dude-bros is so over the top that it feels like a parody. They literally turned us into ISIS (complete with skull masks). You will literal...
how are they bigots exactly? They actually provide evidence and screencaps, instead of painting people like Wu and Sarkeesian as saintly angels.
And as a gamer, and someone who knows this art form and community well, im inclined to approach people who "criticize" gaming and our community with skepticism. And anyone who does objective research into people like Anita and Wu, it is very clear to see that they are not legitimate critics. They are dishonest, hypocritical...
name me a journalist or critic who has ever been killed by gamers. Then maybe these "threats" will hold some weight.
Of course, even if that were the case, that would do nothing to vindicate what she says. There are prominent white supremacists that have to live in hiding due to the fact people want them dead. That doesn't prove their view that "black people are inherently violent" does it?
These journalists are really insulting our intelligence at this point.
Are these people really STILL trotting out Brianna Wu as some kind of innocent victim? They really expect people to believe this crap, when she has been shown to be an opportunistic, attention crazed LIAR on countless occasions.
They are still propagating the myth that she had to "abandon her home" because of gamergate. She tweeted that out while she was away at a convention and ...
The devs and their supporters are already playing the "people only hate anita sarkeesian because she is female" card. It is a tried and true lie that just about every mainstream media outlet has embraced.
I can't even bring myself to be mad at this. It is just too laughable. let's set aside how this is akin to if a dev in the early 2000s made a game glorifying Jack Thompson. Like, wow. Talk about PR suicide. But just the idea of making Anita Sarkeesian, of a...
I would be pissed about this, but skylanders is not a spyro series and doesnt really claim to be. Spyro is barely in the games. He was just there initially for marketability and that was it.
The skylanders games are actually not terrible for what they are. They are games clearly meant for younger kids who are just now starting to get into gaming. My little brother played them when he was about 5 or 6. They arent masterpieces, but they are simple and decently polished.
...
oh my god, alot of people have no idea that SOE just makes primarily MMOs and f2P games, the majority of which arent even on consoles.
The only PS4 games this could potentially bring xbox in the foreseeable future is planetside 2, H1Z1, and everquest next. and the xbox version would most likely be released late, since up until this point they have just been focusing on PS4 and PC.
all I can say is that the short haired announcer chick is cute as hell.
I have no comment on the gameplay, partially because you can barely even see it.
Its great to show contempt for your fans. Just look at how well capcom and Sega are doing financially.
It really seems like square enix is trying to commit suicide. Their actions make no sense and seem calculated to piss off all their fans.
Oh yay. Because there isnt already enough stuff in the mainstream media to slander and malign gamers. Just look at the recent ABC special.
What a joke. Im sure this will be nothing more than a ludicrous fantasy in which gamers are depicted as dangerous violent misogynistic deviants who prey on women.
Jack Thompson really came too early, because if he were on the feminist train, he could have made some serious progress in debasing our hobby in the eyes of the ...
The last of us Remastered outsold the master chief collection. I think it is a safe bet.
and by the time Uncharted 4 comes out, the gap in sales between the PS4 and xbox one will be much bigger than it is now. considering the PS4 is still nearly doubling it in global sales each week.
there arent even 15 million xbox ones sold lol
I dont think it should be hoisted as some political achievement, but I definitely detest the people who are like
"your pushing the f@g agenda on our kids! this is against jesus"
and all that nonsense. I have zero respect for people that ignorant and bigoted.
I don't know why anyone would have a problem with left behind. Naughty dog didnt beat anyone over the head with some hamfisted political message about LGBT rights. They just had two characters with a unique relationship.
The interactions between the two were totally realistic and believable and it had the sort of subtlety and ambiguity that would come from a real relationship like that. Sexuality can be a grey area. People arent always 100% gay or 100% straight. And its n...
way to be a part of the 21st century, dude
oh yeah, because the popularity and audience size for FF7 still remains to be seen. hurr durr durrr
Seriously square. There is no universe where a Crisis Core HD remake would be unsuccessful. release it already.
This game in particular, for the past year has been the subject of more clickbait than any other game in history. Anyone expecting it to receive fair objective reviews is just out of their mind.
This is why game's journalism today is a joke.
