So much sensitivity

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

What is the point of apologizing. He has no plans on supporting the Wii U and the tweets were poking fun at that. Yes it was mean spirited, but so is the reality.

Secretly, he's laughing pretty hard behind that screen.
I thought they were chuckle worthy.

He was probably all like, "sshh, quiet down guys, I gotta pretend to apologize now!"

And, yeah, they actually were kind of funny, especially the one about Half-Life 3. I guess Steam fans didn't get upset enough for an apology.

This wasn't as bad as the tirades from Platinum, which I've been told were quite alright.

Holy shit, you're Wright!

Them double standards...

He should be apologizing for how horribly boring the "jokes" were instead of for how "uncalled" for they were. I would've laughed at them if they were actually noteworthy, now there is just much ado about nothing.

Man, if people can't take a joke on April Fools then there's no hope.

I am picturing someone shooting someone else on the knee and telling that to the police.

There are such things as limits.

"I swear, officer, I'm just making an arrow to the knee joke."

I like how it's always the same thing.
Some kind of developer or studio talks shit about a 'close partner', of course that is no good for their close relationship, so they don't get pissed off, Peter Moore comes out just to redeem EA... (PR stuff only)
