this thread going for 10 pages long is stupid
BOTH party's should get over it......
seriously what is it we are arguing over again?
(though I'll admit I do get pretty sick of the OMG U GUYZ PC POLICE! crowd..they are more annoying than those who do take issue)
Remember the "controversial" Lara Croft attempted-rape scene that spiked multiple threads like this one? What happened to that?
Oh yeah, after the actual game was released, got great scores/reviews, found to be possibly the best Tomb Raider game to date...all those fuckers who stirred-up the controversy over that 15-second scene in the first place? Yeah, they vanished, or hopped onto another bandwagon.
Because thanks to internet anonymity, nobody needs to face the consequences of bullshit accusations and attempts at attention-grabbing, they can simply sly away back into the shadows. More importantly, the developers didn't need to remove that scene, they held their stance and kept it in the game because they wanted it to be there.
This is basically a repeat of the above, except that this time the developers actually changed something...how stupid of them, they basically inflated the issue even more by doing that.
I guess Santa Monica studios didn't realize that once GoW:Ascension was released, the controversy would've been forgotten in roughly 60 seconds (no really, 60 seconds) and the retards would've find something else to latch onto. Rinse and repeat.
It was really that simple, I wish developers could keep it simple.
