It wasn't just a matter of piracy. Money laundering and racketeering are not exactly low-level charges.

OBJECTION!

Vaati isn't in the GBC games, that's Veran and Onox. Who later get hijacked by Ganon anyway.


I still wasn't too thrilled with Skyward Sword's required use of motion controls, but they're not horrible, and Ocarina of Time is disqualified for me because it's a remake (damn good one, but still a remake - same reason Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy is out)

SM3DL, though, I'm with you on.

Your objection is noted, and has been filed appropriately.

He's a repeat offender, his posts consistently (as in, 11 out of 12 of them) have no substance, and this one-word post is simply the worst example of it.

I can forgive a once-in-a-while thing. ~92% of the time? No.

I don't care that you call OoT3D Game of the Year, it just fails my arbitrary requirements.

And as illustrated with my previous posts, I'm pretty damn picky about what I'd call a GotY - only Dark Souls and SM3DL might deserve the nomination to me, and I'm not even considering Skyrim for the title (good, just not GotY material).

I've spent most of the year playing older games and Minecraft and Terraria. Minecraft went through a series of shitty updates in the leadup to the official 1.0 release that ruled it out for me, but Terraria may deserve a nod.

I couldn't really get into Demon's Souls, tbh. The way the world was seperated into distinct levels just didn't sit right with me, because of how they were accessed.

No, I'm not a fan of the "hub level" system.

Additionally, the Estus Flasks are much more forgiving than the need to purchase healing items in Demon's Souls (Flasks refill at campfires). Despite being ostensibly harder than Demon's Souls, a lot of the minor changes make things much more forgiving.

Like how you don't lose 50% of your health for dying. (unless it's a Curse attack, then you're going to have some problems)

The bosses still kill me to death, though.

Yeah, it's basically an open world, limited primarily by your ability to die less often in some areas.

I, uh...

I never got around to playing even the first Portal. Not for lack of desire, but rather because even with the upgrades I've done I can't get it to work on my computer. And I don't want to buy the Orange Box on the 360 because I already have Portal - grabbed it while it was free.

I fully intend to play it with my new laptop when I get it though.

Posted on 02-07-12 10:17 PM, in Fuck you Link
Fuck you, Dorothy, and fuck you, Dollar General.

General incompetence, as usual.

Dorothy, our district manager, is now demanding that we have six people every Thursday morning when we open.

We have eight employees. The other two are expected to close.

Two can't be there that early because of kids, and a third can't be there that early because of a second job.

This leaves us with our third keyholder, our manager, our assistant manager, our stocker, and one cashier - me.

I'm always closing, and one of the first three also has to be there for closing.

You may be seeing the mathematical issue.

Dorothy's response, if we bring it up, will be the same thing it always is - that she can just hire someone else. She's kind of a bitch like that, y'see.

Abuse or not, he's a childish jackass with no defense for this anger-induced tantrum.

Seriously. Take away the laptop. Sell the laptop. Give the laptop away. Just don't destroy something that expensive when it still works.

Any kid can jump up and call the cops on parents. Parents are going to basically live in fear because they are being forced to be the new age parents that the US wants them to be.
I think that's my cue to abandon hope and gtfo

Yeah, I'm sure they have watchdogs to sniff out the demise of a singer to instantly raise prices on her songs.
With how well-publicised this was?

Wouldn't exactly take a lot of work.

Can you prove the reason why they did it?


Can you even suggest a feasible alternative reason?

Had it been someone less famous whose death wasn't made such a big deal, I'd be more willing to buy the "innocent fuckup" explanation. But we're not talking about some random indie band here.

Whether you're buying it or not, it's exactly what corporations do - their entire purpose is maximizing their profits through whatever means are necessary. Some of them pretend to be more morally upright about it, but it rarely holds up for long. Google likes to remind us of that periodically.

These companies made a big deal out of cutting prices after Michael Jackson's death in order to create a surge of demand. Being nice had nothing to do with it. And being a bunch of dicks (which Sony is, let's be honest here) has nothing to do with this - it's all about money.

Not all of them. I've actually worked for one that was generally decent - Sheetz. However, I'm reasonably sure that the majority of their treatment of their employees wasn't about benevolence, simply a different strategy.

So, yes, most of them are run by dicks. I'm glad we're on the same page here!

So no. Sorry. I think you just have beef with Sony over videogames and you just dont want to admit it.

And you're welcome to your opinion, factually inaccurate though it may be.
