People predicting the demise of baseball seem to forget that there will always be new old people.

I believe there is no bad publicity, there is only publicity.And yea, publishers may be abandoning ship but that doesn't hurt the WiiU cause you can't hurt what's already dead.Nintendo will keep doing their own thing and they will surely get back up, either by selling tons of NFC and resurrecting the WiiU or by building their infrastructure from now on leading to their next console.And when Nintendo will start selling tons again, because only they can make it sell tons, not any third party, see the Wii if in doubt, then the third parties will jump back in.Don't worry too much about them leaving now, they are as loyal as pet hyenas.
Publishers actively banked on the Wii U failing, and treated the Wii U audience like trash as a result. Mind you, this is the successor to the most successful system last gen (again, another platform that third parties actively dropped their fecal matter on), and yet it was relegated to "practically non-existent" status from the get-go. Some are shocked by Ubisoft's move, but I'm not. Once Rayman Legends was delayed to keep it competitive with the 360 & PS3 versions, but the same courtesy wasn't offered to Watch Dogs a year later, it was obvious to me that Ubisoft never was fully on-board, and their sloppy ports on the system are the proof.
I think I could piss away $10 million in a year. What a year, though.

Neogaf has produced a Star Wars film writer, surely that $10m is now $50m??
Just saw looking in an older thread that EV was banned, turns out it was because of the nofunallowed Ukraine thread. Hope it's not long.
My irl nicknames Re ReMoeand another I'll only share on the EB page.
Everyone sounds like such an idiot in those threads,
@ this Red Phoenix site. Thank you Karakand. Dat unfiltered communist cocksuckery ill enjoy reading this for a while.
The APL (the party that runs that paper) is Hoxhaist in the year 2014, you know that shit is pure, distilled anti-revisionism. :geoff
The power of the capitalists also exists in prevailing ideology. It is their ideas, their beliefs and values, which are upheld as “correct” and “common sense” in our society.We are taught that the wealthy owners of our society are our “betters” and that they, by virtue of their wealth, know what is best for us. This “teaching” can be understood as their hegemony.Take, for instance, the iconic character of Oprah Winfrey. Oprah has her own show, her own magazine with her face on every cover, a book club with a special sticker placed on books that she likes, and even her own network, aptly called OWN.On this OWN network, she has a show called the “Master Class,” fetishizing those who have “mastered the game called life.” While some would find it ironic that a black woman would have a show fetishizing a “Master Class,” Oprah is unknowingly doing us a service by laying bare the blatant functions of hegemony through her own personality cult. Why do we care what Oprah thinks? Why should we? Why pick up a book at the book store with an “Oprah” sticker on it over any other book?
Gary Whitta actually came back to this thread to edit all these posts he made slamming the original trilogy changes after he was brought on to pen one of the new Star Wars films.

I mean the OT. I don't know what Revenge of the Sith is, is that fan fiction?
Major @ The Coli splitting the arcadium into two. Stupid as hell. Nobody needs more subforums
Some people wanting the thread deleted and such to protect Gary. And getting angry at "GAF" for exposing it.
I... Don't know what to think. I understand going back and editing, hell, he'd be obligated to. Such is the downside of being in the limelight. Personally I think the chaos that ensues after to be the immature part. Hilarious, but immature. It's just a forum. Not even a media outlet.
QuoteDetective GAF is fucking amazing.No, it's really not. Gary made some comments that anyone with any sense would make, and is now in a position where those comments could potentially hurt his career after being offered the job of a lifetime (which he surely had no idea would be on the agenda at the time). Once you're on someone's payroll, what you say impacts them too, so he edited out some old posts to try to damage control any potential PR fallout.Why exactly is he being shamed for it? This isn't an Amir0x situation where he's caught in a lie.
Detective GAF is fucking amazing.
looooooooooooooool
Let's be real though: Does anyone here (or even at GAF) have any hope of the "new trilogy" with Whitta penning it? The same Whitta the penned a movie for M. Night, Will Smith/Scientology, and his "original" screenplay's plot-twist barely makes sense outside of suspending disbelief for "oh, he was guided by 'God'"?
it might be worth noting that he's not actually writing for the sequels, but rather for an off-year spin-off.
