Post by: Christopher on November 06, 2006, 06:10:14 PM
I always hear people discussing Melissa and gamelife, what is it exactly?  A magazine?  A gaming website?

Is it good?

It's the "quirky, amateur online videogame review show" that everybody watches to see fanboys rave about games.  I do not know why it was created.

Oh!  My "blasé pep" is blown completely out of proportion - but I'm pretty sure Spencer was referring to the general "awkwardness" of the show. There are no actors or professionals on the show.

Oh she's very cute.  Also 10 years older and taken.  I just came into this thread because I was sick of all the bitching and wanted a real bitch to show how it's done. :heart

Rumor was on GAF that everyone broke kayfabe off camera at e3 or something.
That's what you get for listening to the shitbags on GAF, they don't know anything - they just talk and pretend they're gaming industry experts.

Reality is, that place couldn't find a scoop at 31 Flavors.

It's fun to feed them misinformation, then sit back and watch them cannibalize it as fact:

I believe that was just the ZD tools that were upset because they were getting bitched out for being dicks to the Gamelife crew in the interview.

I actually did buy a lot of games when it first came out, even once piracy kicked in full blast... but once they announced they were stopping production, I went apeshit downloading stuff. Still bought a lot peripherals for that fucking thing, VMUs laying everywhere

I think the games I paid for were Soul Calibur, Code Veronica, and PSO.  I can't remember whether I paid for Blue Stinger or not.  I was at college when the DC piracy thing kicked into high gear, and the easy piracy was a dream come true for a poor gamer in college.

Yeah I can see that. There was nothing easier than burnin' DC games
