yeah, I think they totally have grounds for firing her, it’s just the absolute worst thing that seems to have pushed them over the edge

not looking forward to twitter gradually coming to terms with this

I almost miss the days of every MacBook-owning journalist insisting they were going to buy AMD CPUs over Intel briefly pulling their gamasutra ads, positively benign by comparison

also, it’s still deplorable that they did nothing to shelter her from harassment while she was in their employ, just so we’re clear

100% agreed, i want to make it clear those are my feelings as well.

Jesus christ everyone involved in this shitshow is awful.

Watching the new FFXV trailers and man I wish they did the Kingdom Hearts thing (or even the MGSV thing) and hired live actors for voicing instead of anime VAs. When you get this close to photorealism, having someone bounce around with an overvoiced WhoaWEYWhaHOWBUDDY it becomes super jarring.

Lance Bass voicing Sephiroth was the best thing to ever happen to Final Fantasy, just saying.

On a related note, Sean Bean is voicing the king in the FFXV companion movie, “Kingslayer.”

How could they not know

FUCK OFF NO WAY

One less reason to keep my 360 around!

Nice

They REALLY wanted it out on April 1st (in Japan).

GG2 doesn’t even have an option to quit or go into full-screen (you have to alt+enter), has no graphical options, is missing its English VO

But it fucking plays like it was poured directly out of the madmen’s brains that conceived it. It is a Video Game and I love it

so they actually just found the 360 source code, compiled it for Windows, and shipped it, awesome

I think they ported it for shits and giggles, I can’t imagine a huge group of people wanting it that didn’t have it already and it already missed the MOBA boat, so I won’t fault them too much

We’re basically certain the release is an April Fools’ Joke of sorts. They’re promising to patch in keyboard config, Ranked Match, and the English dub audio next month. (There’s a language switch option in the menu, but right now it’s grayed out.)

wasn’t GG2 like a musou game or something.

GG2 is DOTA Warriors Reigns Coast 2 Coast

Yeah, I would not be shocked at all if at least a couple guys on the dev team had played DOTA. There’s slightly more Actual Minion Control and it tops out at 2v2, though.

So, that Steam database mining…

I guess this is okay, but patiently awaiting that EDF 4.1 port (CoP is not a great game)
