And it was Enzan I said it to. This is correct. Also I agree EA's Wii U ban is partially due to the Originshoving Psychs mentioned.

It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms. But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit. game - gun = gay game + gun = -gay game + gun + Arem = ??? Founder of #TeamArem

From what I hear it was that specifically that prevented Frostbye 3 engine games making an apperance because FB is a notorious GPU hog. That being said I hear FB3 is kind of a crap-looking, horribly optimized engine anyway, so I feel as though they wouldn't have this excuse if the engineers actually did their fucking job properly.

Oooh, I wanna see. :3 EDIT: From what I'm reading, it looks like EA already cleaned up his Twitter and removed his title. Looks like someone's getting the can.

BL;DR Posts: 3,493 Group: Elite Member #80 Joined: September 7, 2010	If by love they mean "cause 80% of their existing console audience to flock to its competitors simply based on principle", then sure. This bit in particular I found amusing: Quote: Some gamers fear the new consoles could be more about a DRM-walled garden than about enabling new types of connected gameplay. Gameplay? What fucking gameplay? How on earth is having to ping an authentication server every x amount of time somehow beneficial to any feasible form of gameplay whatsoever? Do excecutives even know what this kind of firmware is used for?

Think of how that sounds for just about anything... "You'll learn to love it." Quote: At launch, Sony and Microsoft must avoid putting up new and alarming DRM schemes, and focus on enabling the cool new game experiences that seamlessly connected consoles allow. Yeaaaaa fuck that. Seriously that's the easiest way to sneak things by people. Make is seem good/fine at first, and then eventually bring in the shit people hate (even more). This is assuming they (the consumer base) hasn't already decided to just stick around and "deal with it" by then.
