I love
this article, because it's so true... as are all the comments, such as:
"In Resident Evil 4, it was all Spaniards and no one complained... "
"i'm offended when one person tries to speak for an ENTIRE social group"
"As a black guy: This is total bullshit, ignorant people should go play in traffic, and I hate stupid people. That is all."
"I don't know which to pissed off more about.. The fact that I am a gamer and I get the point of the game .. or the fact that as a black person.. we get upset about this when there are a hundred more things to protest about that actually mean something..."
And then there's:"Why do people have to pull the race card every time black people are depicted in anything that isn't in "black interest"? A zombie is a zombie no matter what color IT is."
"Being a Zombie, I've thought the RE games where racist from day one. I'm just sorry that it's only after black Zombies are put in is the game called out for the hateful smut it is. Zombies everywhere need to recognize it's trash like this that forces Zombie youth into the "stereotypical Zombie" role."
"In Resident Evil 4 I killed 914 white people and liked it so much that I have beat it twice, and working on a third time. Clearly, I hate all white Spanish people and hope for their demise by my hands. Unless it's okay to kill white people as long as you are white and the same for the blacks, of course. This may sound racist, but I want to be able to kill spooks in video games! Crackers are getting boring."
I love gamers sooooo much. <3 XD
And speaking of gaaaaaames. Persona. I have fallen in love with the series once more, because playing the third game has made me want to go back and play the others. I started a new game of the first in the series for the billionth time and I had forgotten how much I loved it. (WHY IS THE MUSIC IN THESE GAMES SO DAMN BRILLIANT? Aaaaaand Mary is kind of a tool. A confused, lost soul, little tool. BUT I STILL LOVE HER LIKE MARK DOES. I also dig when alternate-T.J. is like "NATE WHY DO YOU HANG OUT WITH THESE LOSERS?" And Nate just kind of looks at them and is all, "I have no idea.") This also means Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga and Devil Summoner will be started again as well. I WAS DRINKING CIELO MIST IN PERSONA 3. YAH BRUDDA~ XD
Also, the Silent Hill 5 game footage looks effing
amazing. WELCOME BACK WEEKEND-LATE-NIGHTS-OF-VIDEO-GAME-PLAYING. I MISSED YOU. D:
P.S. I have finally decided that the fandom that has the most hot boys in it is... is... MEGATEN YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY. Yes, even over Final Fantasy and Star Wars. Sorry, dudes.
Come on:
Narumi (period hottie!),
Heat (his name AUTOMATICALLY MAKES HIM HOT),
Junpei, and on this page
Tatsuya/Katsuya/Eikichi/Jun/Nate, and also
Main/Mark/Nate(again)/Brad, and my favorite
old Chris/young Chris -- there's a type of boy for EVERYONE. And that's not even all of them. PLUS, COOLEST OUTFITS EVER. FASHION SENSE BOYS. (NOT POTHOLDERS! OR BELTS.) These darlings have style and class (well, okay Mark might be missing the class, but he has A COOL YELLOW HAT). And nice hair. And hot. (I think I might go with hottest chicks in this fandom too. I want to marry Ulala Serizawa.)
P.S.S. I totally wrote a Persona short story at
caineslayer, Chris/Ellen of course. My total made up dream couple LIEK WORD. I even included the fact that Chris knocked up a chick. HE IS SO FLAWED AND SOMETHING SOMETHING. SO EMO. black lace dashboard confessional etc., etc.
TIME FOR
PERSONA 3 BED. NO, SERIOUSLY.
