What does the "other way round" mean here?
"the secret to destroying a bad game is to repulse the player"?

Just for the sake of comparison, I saw a man in his early 80's at the doctor's office yesterday watching TV in the waiting room. He turned around suddenly and shouted, "Michael Jackson died?!"

I love seeing the people behind the things I love. I am glad Kotaku introduced me to this guy. He has a great legacy.

I've met Mr. Kordek before at the pinball expo in Chicago a few years ago. He's a complete class act.

That is awesome that you got to meet him. I bet he is a cool guy to talk to.

That being said, I hope I look as full of vigor and smiles as he does when I'm 98. Can you imagine? He was there before console/PC gaming, he was there before WWII shooters, he's seen it all and lived through it all. That's hardcore.

It's not the seriousness of it, it's the fact that you blatantly show disrespect to someone that does not deserve it. It's fun and games to be witty or make remarks, but it needs to be done with some decorum or at least the proper time. You did NEITHER.

If you think a passing remark about how an old person is, hold the press, old is witty, then I feel very sad that someone felt fit to give you Star commenter status.
@ShoopDaBoofs:
As a gamer you can't not respect this guy, but it's only a joke, and it referenced a cult 90s television show, and, I think I can safely assume, you did not mean for it do be offensive.
You don't need to apologize or reason with people who find it offensive, then. Contrary to popular belief, they don't need to white knight all the time. It's not as if you made an RRoD joke.

@Now Flame-Broiled!: I apologize, I am amused when the torrent of self-righteous sect of the commentariat start spewing the poison because someone isn't as deadly serious about everything as they are. Which is to say, I am not sorry for a damn thing.

Oh god, feels like I went back through time to middle school.

In retrospect I doubt that was your intention but that wasn't obvious from your original post. seemingly come across like you're trying to be a dick. See, when lame jokes are made, especially within the first post of an article, most people will assume the OP is just trolling/looking for attention. And trolls are of course fun to berate, no matter how asinine or hypocritical it is.
