Hahahah just teasing you

That's the link to the neogaf story which condenses the original Kutoku story and it also has the rumors that have been proved true today including the Gears Producer, and the four main dev leads all leaving.
IN 3 weeks 6 main leads, producers, or a Directors have left. All of them the main heads.
The damage control on Twitter has been pretty hilarious to watch.

"Gosh gamers are just so mean! This is why developers don't talk to the community, blah blah. Nothing is wrong, why are people freaking out?"

Um....several core people from the team leaving in the span of a few weeks is definitely a big deal. I'm sorry that so many aren't willing to swallow whatever the PR flacks preach as gospel.

So I managed to pick up Bayonetta for the 360 new and sealed for $10.

Whee.

All my gaming time this week has been split between two great games: Awesomenauts and Cave Story +. I picked up CS in the summer Steam sale and am really surprised by how much I like it, while Awesomenauts is the first MOBA (ugh I hate that term) game that I've ever really enjoyed playing against non-bots.

You are a good man. Now hopefully you actually unseal the game...

I guess you decided to unseal it. Now you have unleashed the plague.

I felt it was a suda 51 game in spirit. The game already bordered insanity plot, I don't want to know what it would of looked like with suda 51 near it.

But Bayonetta was awesome. I wish there was more

I've been busy with other concerns.

But I have been finding some time now and then to play Arcana for SNES on my laptop, and I'm still running through the single player campaign in Forza.

Bah, watching preseason football isn't nearly the same. It's like substituting thumbing through the Victoria's Secret catalog instead of a night of amazing sex. Just not the same.

Sadly, my sword isn't as in demand as it once was.

Yes.

It is probably one of the most fun action games I had played in a long time. Just unbridled carnage and joy in gaming form.

OK, now that's creepy. Originally I had written Sears Catalog but changed it because I didn't think enough people would be old enough to understand the reference.

Ugh, think I'm sick. Which makes my life of sitting on the couch doing nothing worse, because now I have to feel shitty at the same time.

At least I'm at the final push to beat Chrono Trigger, with all of the character's side-quests available. And then I can hit up the Black Omen and defeat Lavos. Yay.

Well you were banished to Arizona. Of course i'm still waiting for the Lost Years of the Gen X tale or the banishment time. I don't believe you can go anywhere without someone falling on your sword.

You went too far to the left, Santa. And you're the only one who has heard any of The Lost Years Months of Gen X; my sword remained firmly, miraculously sheathed.

Man, this euphemism's really running its course.

I've been playing it for over a year and I still get the giggles when I use the Thunder Hammer stun combo and 10 Ork Boyz go flying. If you'd like a partner in Multi, hit me up on Steam sometime. I'm easy to find.

Meh. This is the end of the thread. No one is reading it now
