  • Take-Two still in trouble

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

Remind me to feel bad about it at some point down the road, after I get over the failure of my own business.

Or not, really. This whole thing was stupidity on Rockstar's part. I'll save my pity for those people who actually got shafted by something, thanks.

Yeah, it kinda boggled my mind they're still being punished. More grandstanding by the politicians if you ask me.

They've become an industry scapegoat. Feeling bad for Take Two is warranted possibly I think. Feeling bad for Rockstar, on the other hand, is highly not warranted.

Rockstar really fucked them over. They did not consider the consequences of releasing this game in a place with old fashioned opinions about sexuality (the US). It was going to make a lot of people very angry, that is exactly what happened, and now Take 2 is paying the consequences for Rockstars laziness.

Uhhh, has anybody seen what the "sex" looks like? They have their fucking clothes on, for god's sake! I've seen 3 different movies in the past two weeks that had more revealing content, all with R ratings. (Isn't that what the M rating is supposed to mirror?) Hell, I just saw Maria Bello's crotch fully naked the other day.

But it's a game so it's for kids, Sine! Geez, don't you know anything! ;)
