Infinity Ward founders canned by Activision
Volourn replied to GreasyDogMeat's topic in Computer and Console
"Also, show us where it said that those two men got 10% of the overall profits from MW2." Embarassing. "10% was a number he randomly picked." 'Nough said. -
Not all of them though so the statement stands.

"That's what happens to counter-revolutionaries who "commemorate" the so-called "victims" of Stalin. Maybe you should try not being evil and commemorating villainous traitors who were executed according to the Soviet legal system? The so-called Polish "resistors" against Soviet "imperialism" were villains who can only appear righteous by ignoring that the Red Army flooding over Polish territory was the only thing that saved it from living its life under Nazi rule, whose stated goals were to kill everyone east of Berlin who wasn't German." You sound like those extremeisty rleigious folk who say accidents are god's punishment for whatever silly crime I'm gonna say you are a troll because you cna't relaly be that delusional right that this is some god given strike, huh? Anyways, coldensces to the victim's families.

"they openly called their bosses idiots/incompetent (which would get you fired in ANY situation)," Yeah, maybe you'd get fired, but you'd still get paid for the work you already did. What Activision is doing is refusing to pay money they owe for work done. That's illegal. It's not opinion it's fact. It's like if you hired a painte, he did a job, you didn't care for what he did you would still have to poay him for the work he already done even if you fire him. YOU would have to prove that he didn't do the work paid for... which, cosndieirng the success here, this is not an issue. Activision has to pay the money owed. Period. If the contratc caklled for these two guys to get 10% (or whatever) of the game's profits then they get their 10%. NO MATTER WHAT. Even if they were caught red handed negotiating with another comapny, they are still owed that money. Undisputable. -
My biggest problem is people take a silly game - and that's what it is - so seriously. To me it's simple. Don't like it don't play it don't worry about it. Rapelay will not make people into rapists. This is fact. No more does watching Hannibal Lector do his thing will make people into cannibals or playing an assassin uin games will make you an assassin. *shrug*

" The company is seeking to withhold additional payments to the men " I see. they don't want to pay what is owed. Riiiggggghhhhhhhhtttttttt....... -
"It's not Volologic, it's just him being a troll as usual. Frankly I don't know how you guys manage to support him for so long. *Cue Volourn saying "NO YOU'RE THE TROLL"*" I might be repetive when it comes to commenting on actual games but others are repetitive when it comes to attacking others and trolling. So, you gonan comment on the game or continue to flame? Either way, you are embarassing yourself, not me. A is superior to O because the darkspawn are no longer simple monsters. You actually gotta use your thinking cap when dealing them. In O, your only choice whend ealing with themw as to kill them on sight ebfore they kill you; now things aren't so black and white. A > O It's your turn now. I commented on the game, probably gave an opinion you disageree with so, so clal me a troll again because you dislike it. It's a fun cycle! Im comment on game you get offended and call me a troll and I laugh at your ignorance and silliness and spam!

"So you're comparing a game whose only gameplay purpose is to rape women to a feature in a game that has nothing to do with the actual game? Or are you trying to say that Fallout's gameplay revolves around blowing up kids? Idiotic argument." Yeah. So, you are saying it's okay to blow up children with dyamite as long as you don't rape them. Idiotic argument there.
-
A is better than O. No contest. And, less buggy.

"And I'd like to point out that you seem to have selective perception as my original post featured "TO MY KNOWLEDGE" within the text that you were responding to. " Nope. No selective perception, actually. All i did was poitned out that you were mistaken. I did not bash you at all. All I did was give examples of games that do allow violence against children. *shrug* "No game features that level of amorality from the western us." Oh, I'm sorry. Blowing up children with dynamite is not as immoral as raping them. Geez. Don't you see how silly that is? You even get awarded in Fo for doing so with what their special perks. LMAO

"Just because you can kill children in a game doesn't make killing children the primary goal, though having the title "Champion Childkiller" in Fallout 1 and 2 sparked me as being humorous. Yes, yes. I know. I am one sick puppy. " Yup. Going by some people's logic, the fact you 'enjoy' killing fictional kiddies in a fictional games means youa re a closet child killer who is one step away from mass murdering a bunch of real life. That logic is just plain baloney. "It's rather strange to refer to the kids in bg as 'killable' and even stranger to insist that killing kids is a persistent theme in any of the games mentioned." Don't be daft. Nowhere did I claim it was a major feature (though killing FO kiddies was HUGELY popular by a huge number of its players); but my postw as a response to someone stating that Werstyern games don't have killable kids. They do. Period. It's undisputable fact. I can't say it's all that strange that a grogan can't read. As, it's pretty obvious.
-
" No western game to my knowledge has featured children in situations where they may be hurt/killed/whatever. " L0L Some of the most popular Western games involve killing children. FO allows you to put dynamite on kiddies and blow them up. DA allows you to coldly murder a child. The BGs featured killable kids. The list can go on as well.

"I also don't see how Manhunt/Postal 2 are as gratuitous. One of your targets is an innocent child in RapeLay. Children are not featured as targets in either Manhunt or Postal 2. That is pretty much my point... there is absolutely nothing in violent games that goes as far in their violence as RapeLay goes in its sexual depravity." Oh my. So it's okay to show violence against adults but not chidlren? I really hate that concept. Violence is not inherently worse, imo, because its commited against chidlren. An innocent is an innocent no matter who old they are. Or gender. Or race. Still, to me, the main point it shouldn't matter what one eprsonally thinks of a game nobody should have a right to say what others can play or watch. It reminds of the movie Irreverisble which had a lot of controversy sorroudning it since it a hardcore, disgusting, and gratutious prolonged rape scene. Don't like it, don't watch it. *shrug*

"She growled and then tried to kill me just like every other darkspawn in the game." You obviously weren't paying attention as there were lots of details about the Broodmother that made ehr awesome. Some things don't need to talk to be awesome. "He was blinded by his hate toward Orlesians, but at least he didn

"What part of non-consensual you did not understand?" What part of fantasy do you not understand?

That's what the Flames get for firing Keenan after just one season. Doofuses. When you ahve the great players they have you should never downgrade your coaching. Ridiculous.

DA > BG 'Nough said. If DA is just 'okay' that would make Bg suck in your opinion, right?

"It is unethical, though." No, that word is thrown around so carelessly it often ebcomes meaningless. 'Unethical'. L0LZ All the arroagnt better than thou judgement in this thread is unethical.

"You put orgies and other sexual fantasies as examples but rape is non-consensual." You never heard of dominatrix (or whatever the male evrsion is as well)? It's all about fulfilling 'rape fantasies' and being controllled /dominated. It's not my thing; but apparantly it is for others. I guess that should be banned too since it make those dominated or thsoe who dominate into rapists, right? "I agree with Dogmeat, the closest comparison would be a game about brutally killing kids. It's just tasteless and disturbing, I'm surprised how many people are defending it." What's sickening is that some people can't tell the difference between fiction and fact. Rapelay is not real rape. It's a game. It is not real. But, hey, I guess Anthony Hopkins is a real sick man if he can play a murderous cannibal in a movie, right? Or those actors who play out rape scenes in movies are real sickos. And, those people who get 'entertained' by such stories are gonan become rapists as well. Tsk, tsk. P.S. I have never played rapeplay, just read the reviews. Bottom line is if you don't care for it don't play it. Nobody should have the power to tell someone what they can or cannopt do when it dopes not hurt another human being. And, rapelay does not. Period.
-
Nothing there comes across as a threat or demand. It's more like 'our game is awesome, we worked hard on it, tohers think it's also, please keep that in mind with your reviw." No threat, no demand. Asking for a favorable review is not a sin.
-
Nah. That's silly. We have a sex drive as you said, people are going to seek sexual gratification sex games or toherwise. Rape, orgies, and all the other 'sex fantasies' have been occuring in the real world for ages. People who are willing to commit are gonna do so even if they have never played a game like this and those who oppose rape are not gonna all of asudden ebcome rapists if they play the game. That's just plain silly.

"I dunno, if Iranian warplanes tried overflying the US I can't imagine anything other than 'what were they expecting' once they got shot down, and that would hardly be a sentiment full of 'malice and hate', just the basic reality that if you overfly someone else's country in warplanes without their express permission they have every right to try and shoot you down." NumbersU gets it. It's not about what he said it's how you said. I mean duh, you fly over another country espciailly one you oppose bad things to happen. But, you can say in that hateful way. Espciially when you throw all the other bigoted and hateful statements he's put out in this thread. 8shrug*

Bizarre attempt to smuggle dead body onto airliner

Still, is that any worse than throwing the dog in a casket or burying it in an 'official' pet cemetary? Hmmm... -
Bizarre attempt to smuggle dead body onto airliner
Volourn replied to Monte Carlo's topic in Way Off-Topic
How is giving a dog a burial - back year or not - inhumane? Just ebcause it isn't 'official' or it doesn't cost hundreds of dollars? Come on. You cna ahve a humble ceremony for your family pet and respect the process with eulogies if so inclined. But, I guess spending big bucks is the only way to show respect. Nah. Soemtiems, the most respectful gestures don't cost monies. Shocking, I know. On Topic: L0LZ
