good on him :) 

I actually made the exact same comparison in my mind, interestingly.

OT: Idk why so many people in this thread have gotten so bent out of shape about his comment. I was reading through it, and actually thought what he said was pretty awesome and incredibly respectable. He probably shouldn't have called the guy those names, but isn't Jaffe already known for being straight forward and speaking his mind like this? That doesn't make it right, but at the same time, why would people be so surprised by it? Furthermore, ppl were mad that he even responded to the tweet. But he said in his msg "I usually don't do this, but...". He admitted that he normally lets that crap go, but he wanted to use the opportunity to prove a point about something that bothers him in the gaming industry.

I, personally, gained a heck of a lot of respect for Jaffe. From the things he said you can truly see his passion for making video games, not (just) money. His main goal in making a game is to give gamers an enjoyable experience, old fans and new. I think this, at least to this extent, is a rare quality in game developers today. I loved what he wrote, and think the people who didn't should reread his statement trying to ignore the entire situation and focus only on what he was trying to say. Jaffe's the man in my book.

If you think about it, he didn't insult him at all other than calling him obnoxious. He said the guy craves attention, and so he (Jaffe) is going to shine the spotlight on his obnoxious, flatulent infested ass. Flatulent infested ass. Isn't everone's? I rest my case.

Hahaha.  Good one.

Respect.

It's sure is nice to see a game developer so passoinate about his work.

Well the game will flop so the "troll" is right.

Good one :)

Totally agree with David.

hopefully Twisted Metal does better than its predecesors!

how much does a game have to sell to not categorize it as a flop?

1 million? 2 million? 3 million? 4 million?

Different games different sales
