Isn't a meltdown an explosive verbal reaction to an event? |
Urban Dictionary since we are talking about the slang definition:
1. Describes what happens when a person freaks out, cracks, loses control of themselves. Life - reality at large- becomes overwhelming. They just can't deal with it all. The person may act out, withdraw, become emotional, run, etc...
(n.) - an act brought about by loss of temper or anger. (v.) - to lose control
I don't really think saying "Shit" or "Fuck" or "Looks like I'm buying a Wii U now" constitutes loss of temper or anger. The twitter post saying "I'm going to kill myself" "I'm going to stop playing the first now" would... but again like I've pointed out numerous times it's twitter. Sensational post after sensational post to get people to notice
|
So news articles, news comments, threads and posts on thousands of message boards, etc...don't count?
But the FFXIII news was a meltdown?
|
Open a discussion about a topic that gets a lot of responses isn't a meltdown... or else do we consider the ps4 reveal a meltdown? Well, obviously not.
FF13 had people flipping shits. Threatening to boycott any SE game. Blaming Sony for not paying. Blamed MS for paying. ect ect... And Sony fans didn't even lose anything. They still played it.
Then after the announcement people were blaming 360 for the development of the game.
and after it came out people were blaming MS for the quality of them game.
Yes FF13 was a major meltdown. FF is a multimillion seller franchise. Bayonetta is far from that.
