Rockstar NY Proves to be "Eye of Sauron"



The recently criticized Rockstar NY office has released a few wallpapers that prove it is the root of all evil.

Trouble in Rockstar Games' paradise was stirred up last week when the wives of Rockstar San Diego employees wrote a on its website. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/97391-Rockstar-Wives-Complain-About-Working-Conditions]

The set of three wallpapers is called "The Eye," and all feature a giant eyeball with arms floating in multi-colored clouds while keeping a close watch on the Rockstar logo. One shows a somewhat angered eye with lightning bolt in hand seemingly about to pounce, while another has the eye just inches from piercing the logo with a bolt. All three can be found on Rockstar's downloads page [http://www.rockstargames.com/downloads].

These would be pretty good wallpapers if the situation they were created under was humorous at all. Rockstar NY could be trying to lighten up the mood by putting a funny spin on things, but at the same time is making fun of its employees. Either that, or one of the artists over there came up with something funny and they ran with it. With so many anonymous sources criticizing the company, there's got to be something wrong at Rockstar, but only those that work there know for sure. Should we be gathering a fellowship to take Rockstar NY down?

That is really funny, but you have to wonder why they thought releasing those was a good idea. Doesn't diminish the humor value though!

overreaction to epic wallpaper is silly.

faulty logic
Sorry. Me and Furburt were trying to be saracastic.
Yes, but you were being sarcastic on the side of the article.
Yes, maybe Rockstar NY is doing terrible HR crimes. We don't know. Then the wallpaper comes out and this guy is treating it like it is evidence that RSNY is dick-slapping it's employees in the face.

I'll bring the food.
I'll bring the firearms!(which they practically give out in the south like candy in a vending machine *SATIRICAL JOKE*).
Oh-ho!

It also looks like you'll be bringing the zingers!

Satire, Aye... but right near Atlanta GA theres a county where you are required to own at least 1 gun per house hold... and no I'm not pulling anyone's leg. I get to be the random guy in the fellowship who dies doing something ridiculusly heroic, while at the same time not accomplishing a single thing :D

Wow, this has to be one of the worst PR moves ever. Even if the allegations aren't true Rockstar NY should know better than trying to satirize it BEFORE the whole thing blows over.
