I'm staying away from it for now. I've heard pretty bad things about it so far.

Just don't be like, "SWEET, IM ALMOST OUT OF GAS, TIME TO GO FILL UP! I THINK I'LL USE HIGH OCTANE THIS TIME!"
lol
I have a Best Buy Reward Zone Mastercard, and damned if that thing makes you wanna spend cash just to get points.

I guess all those runs people make to 7-11 for Mountain Dew and Cheetos will pay off.
Also, Shadowolf86, you're going to make yourself spend $1,500 every month just to get a free month of WoW? That's ridiculous.

I'm finally going to play tomorrow.
Maybe a video or two?

Yeah, I'd sue too. I mean, being called a TERRORIST THREAT is freaking HUGE. Talk about slander, sheesh.
-
Might as well ban Grand Theft Auto IV and arrest everyone involved in Grand Theft Auto IV. Isn't it supposed to be exactly like NYC? It's just training teenagers how to plan and murder people one the streets.

Skuntank sure was a bitch.

I honestly believed people wouldn't be dumb enough to blame ALL asians over the Virginia Tech massacre and would just see him as the lone crazy that he was. But humanity never fails to disappoint. I believe the kid in this story was asian as well (so say the people on Slashdot).
Can you copy and paste? I have to log in to see that.

But another thing to think about, doesn't a pretty good and well thought out map take a decent amount of time to complete? People are probably thinking he made this map after the VT shootings, but he has probably been working on this map for weeks or months.

When will people learn that being profficient in counterstrike does not make you profficient in urban warfare?
30 years from now when people our age are in the government/political situations.

wow...that is really sad. but i can't stop giggling at the terroristic threat" proposed by the hammer.
Haha, yeah, I mean I'm sure they didn't decide he was a terrorist threat as the result of finding the hammer, but having that statement in the article come right after the hammer part makes it sound that way, lol.

One tragedy happens, and now look how scared the world is. Is it ironic that the student is also Chinese? I've played a CS-S map that mimicked a store, so I guess whoever created that map should be targeted as a terrorist threat and arrested as well.
"a hammer was found in the boy’s room, which he used to fix his bed, because it wasn’t in good shape, Chen said. He indicated police seized the hammer as a potential weapon. They decided he was a terroristic threat." ROFL, wow...
Edit: bleh, I hate how we can't edit the title

I wouldn't care for a Starcraft MMO. I'm not a fan of sci-fi MMOs.

Maybe they'll let you jump over 1 foot logs this time around instead of having to follow terrible terrain paths.
Oh jeez, don't remind me lol.

Sony explains the reasonings, taken from http://www.joystiq.com
"The media event for the PS2 title God of War ll took place in Athens, Greece on 1st March. Approximately 20 journalists from European countries attended the event from a variety of gaming and lifestyle media - although none were from the UK.
The event was a theatrical dramatisation with a Greek mythological theme and, as part of the set dressing, a dead goat was provided by the production company from a qualified local butcher. Following the mainstream popularity of shows such as 'I'm a Celebrity, Get me out of here' a series of challenges were set for the journalists. The 'warm entrails' referred to in the invitation and in the Mail on Sunday article was actually a meat soup, made to a traditional Greek recipe and served to attendees in china bowls direct from the caterers. There was never any question of journalists being able to touch the goat, or indeed eat the soup direct from the body of the goat, as one report has alleged. The goat was returned to the butcher at the end of the event.
The article in UK Official PlayStation Magazine (OPSM), from which the Mail on Sunday article was sourced, was written by a journalist who did not attend and done on the basis of the invitation for the event, which employed a degree of hyperbole in order to encourage attendance - the journalist chose to take it as fact!
The photograph was one of many supplied to the magazine to provide a balanced view of the event. Unfortunately, the article was sensationalised and focused on a picture that was unrepresentative of the wider event. When we saw the article for the first time on Thursday of last week we contacted the Publisher of OPSM who accepted that the article was not appropriate for their broad audience. On Friday, before we had received any contact from the media, they agreed to remove the centre page article before the magazine goes on general sale.
We recognise that the use of a dead goat was in poor taste and fell below the high standards of conduct we set ourselves. We are conducting an enquiry to establish the circumstances behind the event in order to ensure this does not happen again. We also apologise to anyone offended by the article in the OPSM (subscription copies were sent out ahead of street date)."

He has the vision of the PS4, 5, and 6.
I don't know about you guys, but I don't see how he can already have an idea of what the PS5 and 6 will be. That's many, many years from now.

I find the idea of what they did funny more than offensive. I eagerly await to see what Sony does to promote any video games involving Jesus as a main character.
Here comes Bible Games! lol

In the context of the God of War series being partly based on Greece and Greek mythology, a goat sacrifice and topless girls with grapes don't seem too out of context. Not that I'm supporting Sony, but you know, ancient Greeks did that kind of stuff.
What's sad is that people don't seem to be offended that whores and animal sacrifices were features of Greek temples or Greek religious practice, but no, do this for a game promotion and people pretend like they've never heard of it before.
We're talking about the promotion of a video game here though.

They could just resurrect Diablo. Konami gets away with it.
-
I'll never understand advertising. Does a dead goat and topless girls actually convince undecided consumers to by a product?
They think so if you're a male.
BLOOD AND GUTS?!?! BOOBS?!?!?!? THIS GAME HAS TO BE HARDCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!!!!!!!
