Not really, no.
Oh dear, and I had you pegged as one of the thoughtful folk around here, Drake.
To the hecklers, trolls, and other assorted trash of the internet: you don't imagine that I would simply hand you...
We all have blood on our hands. And frankly, of all the blood on mine it isn't contributing to ActiBlizzard's coffers that keeps me awake at night. More the knowledge that I am complicit in my...
The motivated myopia that refuses to see Blizzard's hand in what happened to this kid is of precisely the same nature as that which refuses to see the hand of American foreign policy in 9/11, which...
Direct killing of civilians is the rarest and least of America's crimes. It has its bought minions for that, e.g. the slaughtering of communists in Indonesia.
"But who is Osama Bin Laden really?...
No, you've got it all wrong: they hate America (and the rest of the west) for its freedoms.
I've been trying real hard to avoid connecting certain attitudes displayed in this thread to certain...
Hey DJ,
Could you speak more about your experience with the GW2 beta? What was it that captivated you exactly? From the previews and media I've been exposed to I found it quite impressive in terms...
Just looked this up. Wow.
And that, I think, is the problem in a nutshell.
I see what you did there.
Forsaken (1997)
Extreme-G III (2001?)
Where in the World is Carmen San Diego? (1985)
Paperboy (1984)
I don't understand why the origin of the concept matters so much. Surely what's important is that it be interesting and well-executed and so on? Of course if it doesn't tickle your fancy that's fine...
Anyone else for the ignore list today?
So ... anyone else interested?
For my part, I think the Pandaren look awesome, the Monk class looks awesome, the updates to my existing character class (Shaman) sound awesome, the environments and...
Well at least we have some idea of what you do for a living now.
As the context indicates, no. I was referring to other developers who make and profit from games that can be relied upon to negatively impact the lives of their consumers.
Now there's an...
Whereas I haven't bought or played it and still remember what it was about because it made quite a splash here on RPS.
Well I knew that Android couldn't begin to approach the elegance of Windows Phone, but between a quad core CPU and all the noise they made about waging a war on lagginess with Android 4.1 I was at...
No more than I think those who work for cigarette companies or in Heroin factories are. What I'm arguing for is personal responsibility for the results of one's actions, for the role one plays in the...
And the original, which is all ... other ... kinds of awesome:

Ok so not the most original joke in the book, but still awesome.
I suspect the reason XBLA hasn't been overhauled is because it has no future and will be folded into Windows Marketplace or something similar. Until that happens the drones are just going through the...
Yeah, I'm so biased against Blizzard that the main reason I'm hesitant to pass up the purchase of a PC this year is that it'd mean missing Mists of Pandaria. You got me.
I lol'd.
This unfortunate soul is but an extreme case of a whole spectrum of human misery. That the harm in most cases stops short of death doesn't mean it isn't harm. What of those who've merely lost...
It is difficult to persuade a man of a thing when his livelihood depends upon him not recognising that thing.
-- all the drug pushers and arms dealers and other assorted scum of the Earth...
Utter nonsense. This thread is all about personal responsibility. About the responsibility of each and every Blizzard employee who contributed to designing and maintaining a game which destroys...
