I hate that in general, a lot of us always direct our ire to the lowest rung on the ladder. If you want to bitch and harass anyone, maybe direct it to the publishers. They’re the ones that allocate money & time and give the final approval of things.

There is no “criticism” anymore, at least in the traditional sense. It’s just people being mad and loud. Taking down all the gatekeepers (journalists, etc.) was supposed to democratize the conversation space around games, or any other form of media for that matter, but instead it’s just like Cumdumpsta420 on Twitter… Read more
So blame the victims instead of the crazies. Right. Read more
I’m a software developer, but mostly for stuff like boring accounting software. At one point I had the thought about how great it was that video game developers get their names in the credits at the end of the game and how nice it must be to get that kind of public recognition. Read more

Twitch and Twitter both. Launch them into the sun.

Damn. Thanks for the link.
You fucking nailed it. I was more than happy to wait. Well done guys. Mike would have been blown away by this.
I figured something like this must be it, especially when it’s a holiday weekend, and you need to collate everyone’s words once they could emotionally do so. Read more
That certain users kept concern trolling about “WHERE IS THE MIKE FAHEY ARTICLE” was annoying and completely insensitive. When a loved one dies, your first instinct isn’t to go and immediately write about it. You take the time to gather your thoughts and the thoughts of those closest to the person to make sure you get… Read more
I’m in the journo industry, and I appreciate how much time and effort it takes to put together something with as many moving parts as this has. It was worth the effort, and is a fitting tribute to Mike.

I genuinely enjoy Rick & Morty, but I’m getting really tired of Roiland’s three voices, all with the same cadence and mannerisms. Putting them in an extended video next to the fantastic Jennifer Hale isn’t doing him any favors, either.
It’s okay man, you don’t have to be the lead(s) in absolutely every project you… Read more
If you think about it, isn’t a white man writing lyrics for a black artist just blackface by proxy?
Villager looks like he’s doing enough wrist-working as it is in that header photo
This starting the show, as well as how it was handled was angering me.
Starts off the show, and their reveal by talking while showing concept art. Trailer shows environments and some vehicles but still doesn’t explain how gameplay works. Then he goes out on stage to spew more vague jargon that tells us nothing… Read more
No this is cuffy not buffy
