[quote=Magic Magnum]About Xbox One sales doing outright awful in Japan. [/quote]

This is pretty normal. Microsoft's consoles have always done pretty mediocre in Japan. Anyway...

Video games are an art form. Even if they weren't, people have the right to be angry that the journalists that are supposed to be talking about video games are instead focusing on how horrible a human being they are. Because they have a penis. [i]Ooooh[/i].

This'd be like if you were reading a magazine about cars, and then halfway through it's suddenly pages about how every man who loves cars is a sexist misogynist pig because cars are a symbol of traditional masculinity and that makes them sexists. Because masculinity is bad and you should feel bad.

It's insane troll logic of the upteenth degree and yet that's [i]pretty fucking normal[/i] of the Games Journalism industry. I mean most "journalism" is a joke really, but Games Journalism certainly ranks amongst some of the most underachieving, conniving, disgusting oysters you could possible have. And, on top of this, they openly defend people who viciously verbally assault others, con people out of their money, openly spread misinformation and lies about an entire industry... It's bad enough that it's ruined people's reputations and gotten them [i]fired from their jobs[/i].

All because some pseudo-feminists implied they're evil sexist misogynists for not wanting to include whatever batshit changes they demanded of them.

-That- is why people are angry. Understandable angry. You may not care much for games, but some people do, and this shit is serious enough to actually result in the net loss of tens of thousands of dollars. [b]This has monetary consequences[/b], and is [b]impacting the reputations of individuals in the industry[/b]. That's hugely different from "lol y so angry aboot germz, guiz".
