dude if you only knew the truth about your precious america.
3000 “innocent?” lives… just because they didn’t see it coming doesn’t make them innocent, no ones innocent.What about the 10′s of thousands of middle eastern people who’ve died because of america not just during your fake war, but before it. America has their dirty hands in everything.i’m tired of americans always feeling like they’re the victims.And why don’t you go read your own post you sound like a bitter republican who got spanked by the democrats.Oh BTW i like your term of all colors.When did people start becoming blue,purple,or green.If you saw a black person would you call him colored.Would you say to your friend “hey jimbo i saw one of those yellow (asian) people round town”.WTF is this the 1940′s.I believe your ignorant ass meant of all RACES! P.S. Republicans suck ass!

Are you talking to me morriss because if you are i don’t like how a homo can speak for millions when they say PS3 sucks. it’s not impressive

- As long as movie-buffs have a job, they will continue to buy films and movies.
- As long as stamp-collectors have a job, they will continue to buy stamps.
- As long as fitness orientated people have a job, they will continue to buy things that make keep them healthy (not Wii Fit)
- As long as otakus have a job (an oxymoron, I know), they’ll buying smutty doujinshi ans shitty cartoons starring lolita-kids driving giant mecha robots.

What exactly is Patcher’s point? The guy is usually smarter than this…

Most Americans are rather upset with all these bailout/government takeovers. Socialism is a scary thing to us, the vast, vast majority anyway. Everything run by the government with the exception of NASA and the Military is shit taped together with bureaucracy, and even they waste billions of dollars each year in bureaucracy as well.

As for Obama, well there are quite a few things about him that are bothersome to most Americans, such as the lack of any experience, the socialist tendencies, the racist pasture of the church he has been a member of for the last 20 years, William Aires the terrorist who is his friend that he lied about being as close to as he is, his ties to incredibly corrupt politicians in Chicago, and then there is raising taxes on ALL Americans (he says ‘just the rich’ as if that matters). There are many more reasons.
He became president because people were so tired of Bush and McCain is a moderate, which doesn’t inspire anyone. The press here was uber, super, unbelieveably biased towards getting Obama elected. Now that he is they are all coming out saying ‘he has these shady ties’ and ‘who is he really’…shit they should have asked BEFORE he was elected president. If you even hinted that you didn’t want to vote for him you were called a racist, which is of course crap.
It isn’t like people hate him, it is just that he is an empty suit, a snake oil salesman. He just got his learners permit to drive a car and has now been handed the keys to the fastest Formula 1 race car on earth. It is scary.
There are people who love him no matter what he does or says. That is just the way of the world. I can only speak for myself and for most of the people I know.

So, no, he isn’t a hero. He hasn’t done anything to be called a hero.

And, oh, when I said ‘this guy reallllly comes across like a jerk’, I actually meant Michael Pachter, not Obama.

Sorry for the tirade, but you asked. hehe

I still have a job, jackhole. I can afford my hobbies. If I don’t want to squirrel my money away I don’t have too. At least until Obama tells me how, where, and when i must spend my money (usually in the form of taxes).

This guy reallllllly comes across like a jerk.

i dont know why he says gamers don’t know we are in a recession…pretty much the whole freakin’ world knows.

/looks at game forums

Sounds about right.

If this is the case, then why is EA cutting a ton of staff? Why is Midway closing studios, why is MS closing studios? All across the industry people are losing jobs in “cost cutting” measurements.

The industry is already effected. I think its a joke to see these people come out and say its not.

So … who wants to call themselves hardcore now? Hands up! Anyone, anyone at all?

“I’m a hardcore gamer!”
“So … you’re a clueless spotted spod who barely ever leaves his room, doesn’t watch television, doesn’t move five inches away from his console unless it’s to buy another console game, and doesn’t use this Internet thing for anything else than swearing about game scores in online forums? Because, you know, that’s what Pachter says. Everyone respects him, he has to be right!”

We’re going to need a new word. :/

Is there really anyone who doesn’t realise what’s going on at the minute? I’m sure they’ll still continue to buy games, but that doesn’t necessarily make them ignorant.
