Alright, as a Norwegian who's somewhat following the trial of AB, I'd have to say that this article got lost in translation and her quote taken out of context. She's not there to talk about video games, she's one of several people who's there to decide whether or not AB is insane.
AB played a lot of video games, mainly WoW for extended periods of time, neglecting his social life, family and responsibilities at home because of it. This is obviously not norm...
One last thing, the fact that coop no longer sells VG in Norway doesn't mean jack shit, nobody buys game's there anyways. It's like buying a three year old xbox game on 7/11, who does that?
We've got other major game providers i.e Gamestop and several other electronic stores that's a much better choice than coop anyways. It's not like this hinders gamers in anyway. It really doesn't affect us at all.
Ok, some of you need to calm the fuck down. All of you who's yelling that this is hypocritical and what not, - don't know what the shit you're talking about.
First off, I'm a Norwegian gamer, been so all my life and I didn't even hear about coop ceasing to sell video games in Norway until now.
There's never been ANY focus at ALL that video games was an influence to this nut jobs actions, except one small news article. That's all. ...
Wow, that's a misleading title if I ever saw one.
I* sound like the* grammar police,* but all I* see from your post is a large square of text. T*ry using paragraphs as it'*s difficult to read your post. B*ut I* agree with most of it.
Before criticizing someone else because of their grammar, at least try to get your own right first.
Also, I would like to add; PSN fucking sucks. I have had a PS3 for almost three years now, and I can hands down say that, in MY opinion, PSN is a piece of shit.
This article strikes me as a sort of "women's rights in gaming" kind of thing, and thats fine, I'm all for equality, but why is your illustrations all of women who could be swimsuit models? One is even dressed as one.
Isn't this kind of like shooting yourself in the foot? You mention stereotypical male and female protagonists in games (and you're clearly against them), yet you post images of what most men picture "female gamers" to look lik...
I'm like... First?
disregard that, I suck co*ks
Anyways, cant wait to get this game! loved the demo, played it to bits!
Why is the GeOW series so much more "hardcore" then i.e the call of duty series or halo series? I Honestly can't see why.
wow what a waste of cyberspace.
Haha wow I just read all the comments.
The name of the article is "the 24 BEST ps3 games" like 40% of the games you listed are utter shit.
OH GEE I NEED TO BUY A PS3 CUZ I WANNA PLAY EYEPET!
When I saw the title of this article I thought "Wow, do the ps3 really have that many exclusives!?". Then I read the article and saw that most of the games were multi platform and I remembered "Ah, that's right! The ps3 doesn't have any games! Silly me."
No way Josè! FMV Completely brakes the immersion IMO.
