EA Wants Its Brass Knuckles Back

[clicketycrack]

By "properly dispose of", they of course mean to pound the moron who fucked this up and then stuff them in his liquefied colon as he floats down the Colorado.

That, at least, is what I imagine. It just sounded really dark and kind of bad-ass when they say "properly dispose of", dontcha think?

How would he float if he was full of brass knuckles?

Brass knuckles aren't the heaviest things in the world.

Neither are elephants but I don't think they can float either

If it was in a large enough body of water, I believe it could. Or it was dead, the decomposition gasses inside it might keep it afloat.

Really? I didn't know that. You learn something new everyday I guess.

Only in america are brass knuckles illegal, but firearms are not.

I know right.

I almost pooped a little from laughing when I read the original thing.

"So wait rifles are legal but brass knuckles are not?" I can punch you in the face with one of these objects from two thousand feet away. Can you guess which one?

 

[1337mokro]

Lol glad I live in Europe so my Knuckles are legal. Gonna test em out now on the guy who didn't say Megaman 5 was the best.

Meh i prefer a garrote wire myself (poor Lucas)

Same here.

Whoa, whoa. We can't let people walk around with brass knuckles. They might hurt someone.

I realise you're being ironic, but it worries me that some people could and definitely WOULD use this as what they would consider a legitimate defence. But I'd rather not have this thread turn into a gun-ownership argument (I'm British, I don't get a say in it...) so I'll stop that train of thought there.


EA, what the hell were you thinking this time? "Display" Brass Knuckles? Someone will inevitably get ahold of one of these and hurt someone, whether directly or by misadventure (I envision a bored journalist shadow-boxing with these to look cool and then being startled by a fellow journo trying to inform him about the recall...), and then EA's ass is really on the line.

Hey, some people know how to use them effectively. Punching someone in the teeth hurts. Punching someone in the teeth with brass knuckles takes away a lot of that hurt and puts it on the person you just hit.

I actually imagined the wearing accidentally clipping the individual startling him with them or something ludicrous to that effect, but punching himself in the jaw with them would be equally spectacular and get EA into just as much trouble.

I want brass knuckles, especially if their free, and from EA. I wonder if their illegal in Vermont... or New York.

 

[Kirosilence]

Providing weapons to citizens is illegal eh?

Huh.. who would have thunk it.

 

[kawligia]

The best Megaman is clearly 2.

 

[Sewblon]

You are all ignoring the real issue. Has anyone used brass knuckles to injure a person in the last 50 years? Knives are much more efficient. They should have given out Tommy guns, at least then this would be cool.

LOL. I never thought of that.

 

[Aperama]

This is the first thing that EA has done in years I actually approve of.

Ya know, I was thinking about that, and I think it's that way because you can't 'regulate' and limit brass knuckles like you can with firearms and knives. You can put size, caliber, concealment, etc. limitations on a gun but pair of brass knuckles, all you can really say is "allowed or not allowed." - most people seem to carry things like these and knives than guns on them in this country anyway. As far as I know :|

Quite frankly, giving people a weapon as a pre-order bonus is fucking ridiculous, downright stupid, and doesn't help this whole issue with "games need to be taken seriously/the jack thompson crowd". I don't know what the hell they were thinking, but almost every single news article I see involving EA, I always seem to say that.

That's not even remotely true. There are many states in which you require many, many permits to own a firearm. Add to that, knives which have a two-sided blade are illegal, as are switchblades, zip-guns, stilettos, throwing stars, and any other concealable weapon.

You require a permit, but they are legal. Not to mention, you won't really believe the kind of shit you can legally get away with [http://www.cracked.com/article_17016_7-items-you-wont-believe-are-actually-legal.html]

Yes sir, you can have a minigun... Just be sure to not be packin' any o' them Brass Knuckles! You might hurt someone!

...Although, to be fair, with the money it costs you to fire a minigun and the current economic depression, you probably won't be killing much with it anyways...

It's extremely difficult (and highly illegal) to obtain a gun through any other meanss that an authorized retailer. On top of that, in nearly all instances you require paperwok and a waiting period.

Are you honestly saying it's difficult to get an illegal gun? Illegal yes, difficult? Not really...

 

[Reaperman Wompa]

Awww, that would have made a sweet special edition item. You open it up, there's the knuckles, a sawn off shotgun and locations to your local McDonalds to make sure you get your cut.

Not mind shatteringly bad but EA could probably have put more thought into issuing weapons...unless they actually are sending out weapons, but for what purpose?...Oh It's EA, It'll be world Domination.
