Where are all the heroes?

Aug 12, 2005 16:10
First let me give a thank you to all the individual gamers out there who have tried to take a stand for videogames whenever the media unjustly blamed videogames for yet another crime. I know if more gamers came together and formed a more structured organization we would have an actually voice in the media. But what about the devs? What about the publishers? Random gamers online may not be able to form a decent " videogame union" (or whatever you wish to call it) to help fight the media. But some devs/publishers are multi-million dollar companies. Given a devs/publishers resources you' d think gamers would have one truly recognizable face that will go on the air and verbally take a stand to help fight ignorant media bias and misconceptions. But there is no one. I encourage gamers everywhere to take a stand for videogames when necessary, but our jobs would be a lot easier if these gigantic corporations stepped in to lend a hand every once in a while.

Where are all the heroes? Perhaps being brutally killed by the evil Jack Thompson On a more serious note, I completely agree with you. It' s about time that both developers and publishers look after their industry, just as we consumers should. Then we' d probably have some chance of protecting our glorius past time. I' ll clear the name of video games from false accusations, even if it means my life

Sam Fisher kicks Snake' s ass. Anyway, I agree with you lotusson. At the same time though I understand why publishers don' t step up. It' s a waste of money. As much as lawyers want to stop video games they can' t simply because of the freedom of speech. Why waste time and effort when you' ve already won? Sure, they are getting a bad rap for some things but overall there isn' t a thing the government can do to stop videogames from showing what they want. I' m still trying to figure out how the government can go into Rockstar and do an investigation when they did nothing illegal. The ESRB isn' t governement run so they have no power to enforce ESRB standards. the government has no right going into rockstar, but even if they find some foul play, it' s still not breaking any laws. the government can' t do sh*t to them.

Whatever you say Rampage, that' s not true. Sam Fisher and Splinter Cell are american remakes of Snake & MGS.

Soon enough you will be warned by the other members of this site not to get into this arguement with me. I have gone on for pages explaining how much better Splinter Cell and Samfisher are compared to the MGS series and Snake.

You' re misunderstanding me, rampage. I don' t wanna argue you, and i think, it doesn' t make a difference if i have now two stars or five. And if someone likes MGS more as Splinter Cell, it isn' t a reason to try to change his meaning. I think you' re a little bit to fanatic on this game...

ORIGINAL: Naked Snake I think you' re a little bit to fanatic on this game... Indeed I am, and I' m happy to admit it. I just wanted to point out that your statement about SC being a MGS remake was totally false. I have proven it before and at any time I' m willing to do it again. Oh, and I don' t pay attention to those stars. they basically just say how long you have been in the forum. Don' t worry. I' m by no means interested in a fight. I like the forums as calm as possible. that is unless lotusson and I are sparring in our ninja costumes. Then all hell can be happily let loose.
