I know what you're saying, but a lot of people do have trouble with criticism. I can't imagine how many beautiful things we've missed out on because of fear of the backlash.

An artist can be amazing artist, yet have no ability to handle internet rage, and it does feel a -little- unfair to expect them to, even if the internet isn't really ever going to change.

Re: Nintendo Download: 30th June (North America)

I'm just a touch confused.

In American sports all stars, they list the games as
"Baseball, American soccer, hockey, basketball, bowling, shooting and soccer"

We refer to our football as American football, here, and the rest of the world's football as soccer. But what on earth is the difference between American soccer and soccer?

Do other countries have a different sport they call soccer, or is this just a bad attempt at differentiating football and American football?

Re: Hands On: Two Point Campus Offers One Hell Of An Education

I pop up on basically all of the two point campus stuff and you know I'm going to pick up the game regardless of how successful I'll have to actually make the campus, but if my Greendale campus is actually going to be a success, I'm going to need classes like "Intro to Ladders" and "Nic Cage: Good or Bad."

Re: Dragon Quest X Offline Gets New Japanese Launch Date, Still No Western Release

A fair enough point, I suppose, but I've never owned an Xbox or Playstation.

I think I can get it on PC, but why reward SquareEnix (they're behind Dragon Quest, these days, right?) for not bringing a game out on a platform I want it on.

Example:
EA assumed for years that people weren't buying their games on Nintendo products because it was the wrong audience. Then when people bought the game elsewhere, EA argued that that's where the audience was, without discussing the fact that they brought over incomplete ports (or no port at all) as potentially the reason.

If I tell companies it's okay to skip my favorite system, they'll keep skipping my favorite system.
