now this shows the power of the internet because amazon is a huge book seller.  she lied and showed ignorance and she gets it right back.  fight the power!

Never under estimate the collective power of video gamers. Cooper Lawrence deserves every bit of what she gets. I have a newfound respect for Geoff Keighley!



Wow, pretty hilarious and sad at the same time, because I know nothing will happen. Fox or this lady are never going to send out an apology for slandering Mass Effect.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

update: fox has said that they sent out invitations to ea for more discussion. ea shouldnt go back on fox, because its back on fox's terms. fox should issue a public apology. they cause it, so they should fix it.

I had never actually watched that first vid with Geoff before.

Makes me want to throw myself off a cliff.  So damn stupid.

 "This game should be rated AO!"  "What happened to the good old days of Atari and Pacman?"  "*laughs*" *shoots myself*

I have been reading through the reviews of one of her books on Amazon, and many of them are surprisingly well written, with great use of satire and sarcasm. It seems the more intelligent gamers are the ones taking her on thus far, which is good for the gaming community's image, imo.

@Ben: LOL, as if Atari's games are any better.  Custer's Last Stand, anyone? 



This chick deserved it, no two ways about it.
