Comment The truth... (Score 1) 293

Nice press release, Activision Blizzard. You have a good press agent. Now what really happened when the heard about it. Mike Morheim : *curses like a sailor* Chris Metzen : *invents new curse words and is even louder* Ghostcrawler: "What do I care? I'm outta here anyways..." Yeah, it was about like that, I'm sure.

Comment The author must be smoking crack... (Score 1) 189

Title says it all. The author seems to say he speaks for the community. Yet the game keeps growing and growing. Third person view is OPTIONAL and removable with 1 keystroke. The community has been asking for this option. The game is free to play. Free to Win as well. They are offering options, is all. You can earn them in game, or quicker through micro-transactions. just like every other free to play game. PGI seems to be a good company, as well as a socially conscious company. They just completed a charity campaign where the players were able to puchase a specially designed and skinned mech for $10 US. Every single penny of that ten bucks was given to the Canadian Cancer Society in the name of one of the player's daughter, Sarah, who passed away from cancer. the child used to play with her father. They designed the skin with some cute things just for her. And 15k players, including myself, bought one. Over 150k US donated. That's saying a lot. The author is smoking crack. Must be, because he's sprouting nonsense.

Well, I know in Star Wars: The Old Republic, the British accent is to emphasize the Empire part of the Sith Empire. The Rebellion, or Republic, side uses an American accent. That, and the original Star Wars used a whole lot of British actors.

Hate to say it, but you're wrong. They responded. They responded with seven thousand pages of documents. Of course, it was all fuzzy math and BS. They did say they weren't required to but they did respond. This has been a long fight. One that has cost alot of money as well. But we have to remain vigilant. Otherwise they'll try it again.

... they're not in CT like I am. The "breastfeeding lobby" here is rabid. There is also a number of laws here that impose criminal penalties. I personally know of restaurants that have been closed down just for saying something to a nursing mother. Personally, I find NOTHING sexual about a nursing baby. And people who do are just... disgusting.
