Geoff Keighly says the Fox "News" skit was off the wall, Cooper gets revenge H4xXed.

Keighly FTW, that little report was infuriating. It was basically all of those stubborn jackasses giving each other a circle jerk, then ganging up on the one person with any sense.

Um, pretty much ALL publications outside of gaming publications shed video games in a bad light.

Why people are making a big deal of this however doesnt make sense. This story on Fox isnt going to do ANYTHING to the industry.

 

It's still slander, and needs to be dealt with. Letting this **** continually happen with everyone in the industry just taking it makes the whole business lose credibility.

 

O yea, yea, im not arguing that, but i mean it happens everyday on just about every issue.

 

I think many people, like you WHF, are just taking this a bit too seriously because its a video game. Just let it go.

 

Yea, but thats because old people run the world. Video games are foreign to them, and whats foreign to so many ppl must be bad(at least thats how they see it).

 

I understand that, but there is no reason to throw a bigger hissyfit now.

 

I like games

 

ProjectPat is directly responsible for rape. All of it. He played Hitman, and it just ruined his mind.


Now imagine that statement on national TV. And get this - people actually believe the pile of crap. And now imagine that same situation going on for more than a decade. Thats why it's appropriate to be angry.

 

Haha, i cant argue that, but man NONE of this is anything new. Gamers are acting like this is the first time any one has ever said a negative thing about videogames.

 

No, they're not. They're just getting more and more angry that this stuff is still happening.

 

Hahaha, but its such a SMALL percentage of people who actually believe that tho. If it was the way some of you are making it sound, then wed have half of America out protesting every major gaming publisher/developer tomorrow.

 

How exactly is it a small percentage? The media has been uniformly reporting this stuff to a bunch of people who don't play games, and has been doing this for 10+ years, and you think it's a small chunk? Wake up please. Games are going to get CCA'd because people want to blame crimes on something other than criminals.

 

Join the club. This doesn't just happen with gamers, it happens with EVERYONE. Whether it be your fav actor,musician, athlete or politician. At some point, something you care about will have mud slung on it by the media.

 

It was like Conan.

 

Give me a break. NOTHING, will come from this story. Promptly remove your bunched up panties from your ass.
