amok: while I am first here (I kind of promised myself to not get involved in this rubbish....) - I must say that I was pointed out this document earlier today, and I must say it was the funniest thing I have read all week - http://gamergate.rogue-star-industries.com/

COME AT US BRO!

so far, the whole thing is just a load of "Merda taurorum animas conturbit"... from both sides. The quicker people can just bury this whole embarrassing thing (and embarrassing I still mean from both sides) the better for humanity.

jefequeso: I disagree. I think there are some legitimate problems being addressed by the insanity of gamergate, and thus far there have actually been some positive changes.
I read things like this-
http://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_zoe_quinn_scandal_highlights_how_gaming_journalism_is_corrupt_and_has_turned_to/post1453

and despair and wonder if we are back in the stone age again.... I have not seen 1 positive outcome from this debacle yet.

All right, that's your opinion.

indeed, and despite many participating in this farce - I am glad I am still allowed to have it.

Also, you should take a look at this. Really good so far, and discussing all the different ways this could be looked at.

Everyone should take a look at this, actually.

That Dell guy needs to learn there's a difference between being a "look at me!" attention seeking blog writer like Devin Faraci and being an actual businessman with actual customers.
Yeah, once again, everyone needs to check this video out. Probably the most reasonable discussion of Gamergate I've seen yet.

I will have to listen to that. But right now Alien: Isolation is on the menu. :D

Nero has a new radio episode up. And this is a really good one too, where he actually managed to find a anti-GG, that was willing to show up for an interview. Amongst other guest is the guy behind the #notyourshield tag, that talks about how he got attacked by the usual suspects, on the basis that he doesn't want to be used in their stereotypical narative. Please give it a listen, it's worth it!

P.S. According to some tweets from a company spokesperson, Sears are thinking about pulling their ads from Kotaku! XD

If you mean the press reporting on it, no, but it's all over the internet.

Hey fellow shitlords, Socks has today's update.

And in other news. Alien: Isolation rocks! If you are a Alien fan, then this game is what you have been waiting 35 years for. Don't think, just buy it! It's a pure love letter. <3
Finally, the first proper (semi-)mainstream "grown ups" documentry about the whole thing (and more) is being made now. They're supposed to have some heavy duty insider info. They say this thing is going to tear the gaming industry, gaming journalism and the world of sjw's apart ... so look out!

"Social Justice Warrior" is a term designed to strongly derogatorily address a certain group of people. Claiming to make a "documentary" about Social Justice Warriors is like claiming to make a "documentary" about ni****s. The bias is in the term, isn't it?

I think by definition, a documentary intended to portray a certain group of people as corrupt, dishonest, and destructive, is going to be a teensy bit biased :P
