Consider my feedback however you want. I personally miss the days where I could broswe a gaming website and actually get uninteruptted news. I don't mind opinion but non-stop complaints are tiresome to read. When I see them adnausem it becomes very difficult to have any empathy and easy just to call these people cry babies. We are talking about games here. The value of the writer isn't in question as much as the topic matter is.
This article is about a guy suing Sony over his inability to understand the words on the side of a box. Also it doesn't even appear that he is Suing Sony, seems you guys just chose that scenario to get more attention with your headline. Can't you see how publishing this kind of stuff could errode your credibility?"
Ed is writing on a gaming website. Community writer or not if you are going to put yourself out there you should probably sound smarter than the people commenting.
I wasn't aware that 'Freetard' was so taboo. It was good enough for the CEO of Sony to use it, so I added it to my vocabulary since I loved the ring of it, and it clearly sums up the entitlement problem that people in the gaming audience have.
I don't subscribe to any moniker of 'corporations are evil' I subscribe to 'buyer beware' and allow myself to be pleasantly surprised when people and or companies go above and beyond. So excuse me if I am sick of the constant parade of self imposed victim-hood that seems to occupy most of the gaming 'news' these days.
We have no end of blog writers ready to pontificate on anything they percieve as a wrong-doing, but where are the old school investigative guys? I think SuperAnnuation and a scant few others are the only guys that really digs up any real game news any more. Everyone else is just crying about something.
At the end of the day we all got something to complain about, just a good thing for the gaming audience in general is not all of us have the time to post it on the internet."
Asking him if this is his first job is not immaterial because it doesn't sound like he has had tons of experience in the work force. Sounds like he is working with a bunch of younger immature people. Which doesn't suprise me that they own Xbox. :)
America loves Xbox because MS went out of their way to spend a ton of cash to insure that. They did the same thing in Japan and it failed miserably. It didn't hurt that they got the system out a year early and they used their massive experience in software to keep the slapped together system humming.
That logical enough for ya? :)"
The PlayStation brand still has lots of value in it. Sony would be stupid to toss it out because of a few Americans who participate in brand bullying."
Also aren't you supposed to be an informed member of the gaming press? How can you play victim in this case? Also this offer sounds like it stems more from AT&T than it does from Sony.
"Over $55 Bonus Value. 8GB Memory Card, AT&T Data Session And A Downloadable Game With Activation For A Limited Time Only."
There is a clear requirement to this offer right within the text you have revealed 'with activiation', notice it doesn't say everything you need is right in the box.
Clearly you were looking at the box with wishful eyes, I have seen this same box and I didn't assume that meant I was getting a bunch of stuff for free."
I miss Sienfeld."
How this show succeeds and something like Arrested Developement fails is beyond me."
Anything else is just whining IMHO. Change your diapers.
