The Infinite Warfare trailer was downvoted so hard because the franchise was stagnating, but way more than that, they showed a remaster of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, but revealed you could only get it with a special bundle of Infinite Warfare. That pissed people off to no end. Not mentioning that is a disservice to the story.

I've heard that Epic's contract with DC prevented the whip emote from being disabled, which just raises a whole bunch of questions, such as "Did Epic seriously not talk to DC and tell them how bad this would make them look?" Then again, knowing DC, they probably wouldn't care.

Nintendo's biggest PR disaster has to be their constant abuse of copyright strikes. While admittedly, many people did have it coming (the guy who made that mod for Palworld that turns it into Pokemon did get donations from the community, which technically means he was making money off an IP without Nintendo's consent), most of the time it's completely uncalled for. Like when asked why AM2R was taken down, Reggie responded with saying it was a "commercial product" despite no evidence supporting said claims (Samus Returns being an official remake being the only reason I can think of, but it's not like people weren't gonna buy that after playing AM2R), and another example is last year, they threatened to shut down a Smash Ultimate tournament for disabled people for using third-party controllers. Not only isn't the use of third-party devices for first-party systems perfectly legal since they all have Bluetooth built in as standard, but it's even more jarring because Nintendo doesn't make any first-party controllers for the disabled and yet have the audacity to go overboard over something they know full well is even worse for PR. If any of the participants were children, it makes it even more of a disaster since Nintendo puts great emphasis on making games specifically for children. Thankfully in this case, the only thing stronger than Japanese copyright lawyers is Norwegian lawmakers.

Regarding the Fortnite scandal, I used to work for Epic at the time when that happened. I was a technical support. First of all, I laughed so hard when the kids found the exploit for the emote of the whip. But this was because of the legal agreement of DC and Epic. Basically other companies "rent" their IPs to Epic/ . This means that in all times of the game, the linseed stuff cannot be disabled. It was so absurd and I still laugh to this day

To keep its M rating, whenever Frank kills an enemy, the screen turns black and white so the game doesn’t show too much blood or gore. That’s just one example.

Compared to the commercial successes of PS1 and PS2, the Xbox very nearly took the mantle from PS. One can only wonder what would happen to the PS IP if a repeat happened with the Xbox One and PS4.

We have seen how easily Sony gives up on its products, so had Sony stayed consistent with that ‘cash out quick’ model, we very possible could have seen the plug pulled on the PlayStation IP had the Xbox One premier campaign been another home run. Sony’s determination to claw the PS3 through the mud really got us to where we are now and I wish they put this much support into everything they make.

Kevin Smith's movie Dogma (1999) was protested by Catholics who found the subject matter in the movie offensive. Kevin Smith joined the protests against the movie he had made in order to increase notoriety. I wonder if the Dante's Inferno stunt was inspired by that.

EA should have done what a lot of brass knuckle manufacturers do and put a threaded removable brass pin in it so it sits at a slight angle when placed on a desk and you can then say it is a paper weight 😂When I was a teenager I went through a phase of buying different gadgets and gizmos from China and all the brass knuckle listings had those little pins on them and my friend from school had a pair and his had the removable pin too. I thought I should mention he didn't bring them to school, he showed them to me when I went to his house.

Another game that had disastrous marketing was Rule of Rose. They tried to go with controversy-based marketing by getting a publicist to make reports that heavily exaggerated or fabricated aspects of the game that could be seen as problematic, most notable being the erroneous claim that the game shows sexual content involving underage characters. This not only caused the game to get banned in several countries but also caused it to bomb in the countries that did get a release, causing the studio that developed it to shut down.

You can legally own brass knuckles in many states here in the US! Only a small few have a complete ban on them. However, generally for most states where it is legal, you cannot carry them concealed on your person. For example, in Oregon it’s legal to own, but you may only have them on private property.

It is way more bad then what is told in this video, they made a competition to promote the game withe the 2nd circle of lust, whoever won the competition were rewarded with a “night of lust”

The "alliwantforxmasisapsp" thing I found out through the weirdest of ways: Ashens. Yes, that same Ashens who reviews tat on his brown sofa. One of his earliest videos was a parody video on this topic.

In regards to the MLK event, I think Epic was contractually obligated to keep the DC emotes regardless of event. Otherwise, I can’t imagine Catwoman’s emote being allowed.

I certainly enjoyed playing Dante's Inferno, in fact i completed the game in Inferno difficulty and liked the ending even though there wasnt a sequel to it but ended nicely. When i first played it and got to the second ring: Lust and heard the moans, i immediately muted the volume because my parents thought i was watching something i wasnt supposed to but i ended up completing the level and went to Gluttony. But I suppose Dante's Inferno must've made Catholics mad because of how the game was depicting hell i suppose or maybe because of Lucifer.

It's funny that everyone is Peter Molyneux now. At least his games were good on release though, even if they were only 30% of what he planned.

It's not free gas but every once in a while where I live Sheetz will have gas for 99 cents a gallon and it's crazy how busy it gets. Idk if they do it everywhere but i live in a pretty small town/area and it gets like he was saying so I could imagine in what free gas would be like in big ass city like London.

The Ubisoft micro transaction rise is almost worse than EA's. It was less predatory as most was cosmetic but it happened pretty well the same way, out of no where and above and beyond

Idk Xbox maybe pushed to hard with the console being an entertainment system but really that’s what consoles have become, I use my Xbox most days to just watch tv and chat with friends that I don’t get to see as much as I like.
