Post by: Sho Nuff on November 09, 2012, 12:10:30 PM: So Epic people dug into SK's source code and said that it had tons of stolen code. I'm just wondering if they had a neutral party review that statement.

I know we are all joking, but surly used copies will float around Gamestops?

Post by: mjemirzian on November 09, 2012, 11:17:48 PM: This is a sad situation for all involved. I personally thought the lawsuit was ill advised, but business is business and we'll never know the full story. On the other hand, the crap flinging from the sidelines just makes the game community look bad.

I feel sorry for everyone not named Denis Dyack and I'm pretty sure we know the story.

I don't know every single detail, but maybe you can inform me why he's made you and others so upset.

Post by: Barry Egan on November 10, 2012, 02:37:50 PM: My father has an ego far more massive than his own talents would permit. Seeing analagous personalities get their comeuppance gives me a thick charge of Jouissance in the place where my childhood should be. Also, letting the videogame community down by my lack of tact isn't really a major concern of mine, unfortunately :(

Show me the posts where I'm upset.

I'm laughing because an obese huckster's 10+ year con game got shut down by his own hubris.

Taking video games a little too seriously IMO. Reminds me a lot of console wars or the kind of dev bashing going on around DmC.. taking things way too personally.

I do dislike him, that's what I said in my post. I dislike him personally and it makes me giggle when I know that he's sad. I literally only visit the video game forum to here Denis Dyack news.

Post by: Great Rumbler on November 11, 2012, 12:22:35 PM: Denis Dyack's house is falling in on his head and he only has himself to blame. It's poetic justice and poetic justice is the sort of thing that ought to make anyone feel just a little bit pleased.
