Well, there [I]is[/I] some truth to it. :v:

Well, not really [i]that[/i] rageworthy, but it's like they picked goofy looking persons for the interviews on purpose :v:
And some of the text was honestly pretty offensive.
that news reporter, Nazan Eckes is hot.
[QUOTE=Ignhelper;31932445]that news reporter, Nazan Eckes is hot.[/QUOTE]
And a bitch.
While it might be insulting, some parts ARE true.
There's a parody of it by "Giga", which was a German TV channel all about games until they, unsurprisingly, ran out of funds, but they still have a YouTube channel up.
I dunno how to add subtitles to YouTube videos tho, so I could only post the translation as text together with a link to the video here. V:v:V
How did a TV channel about video games go bankrupt in [I]Germany[/I]? Have you seen how many players in every game are german? It's insane.
What they said was entirely true.
But if you don't give a shit about "styling yourself" and getting women, why would this annoy you?
Conventions tend to attract the more hardcore neckbeards, but this report is just awful. What about the fat middle aged men painting themselves in their favorite team's colors, consuming large amounts of alcohol and shouting and acting wildy while watching a soccer (or some other sport) game. That's perfectly reasonable and normal, while these people at game conventions are pathetic and awkward and should be frowned upon.
It makes no difference whether it's true or not, it's a pretty derogatory news report, it's like doing a news report on a gay pride parade and calling them all a bunch of faggots. They were practically ridiculing most of the people interviewed and that booth girl was a massive bitch.
Oh RTL, y u so trollin.
Well, RTL isn't really known for its quality programmes, so this fits pretty good.
Uh pretty good representation of a generic games convention.
Sorry nerds it's true.
Fuck that I'll dress up in awesome looking gear and I'll fucking enjoy it.
The [url=http://www.programmbeschwerde.de/]website[/url] that deals with complaints for German television is down due to the large volume of complaints.
An RTL editor responded to the complaints by saying [url=http://translate.google.de/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.onlinewelten.com%2Fgames%2Frtl-bericht-ueber-die-gamescom-2011%2Fnews%2Fproteststurm-rtl-redakteur-wirft-gamern-humorlosigkeit-106994%2F]"I personally believe Gamescom visitors and gamers are a humorless folk."[/url]
The editor of the piece has [url=http://www.facebook.com/gamescom.cologne/posts/10150290276333774]apologized on his Facebook[/url]
G.Translation:
"Several hundred messages have now shown me clearly that I have assessed the impact of my contribution to Gamescom all wrong. That should be fun. Is my failed thoroughly. I did not want to hurt or offend anyone. That this is now done yet, sorry, very sorry. The subsequent discussion on my personal Facebook page about the contribution and the reactions to it was hot. My comments were there without thinking. Even for that I apologize."
If this was supposed to be humour RTL, the channel responsible for this horrific report, wouldn't desperately delete all the parodies and hatevideos about it on youtube.
The report is also breaking german laws with 'Volksverhetzung' - hate towards a group of people.
I hope this ends sweet with some idiot ass getting kicked (I'm being too optimistic here though).
Well, that's kind of a dick. Having a girlfriend and being stylish is too mainstream. Also, I do take a shower each day. :v:
That girl they interviewed was pretty cute.

Then you're not a real gamer. I play Boggle Online for hours a day, and refuse to shower, afterwards.
she was just talking mad shit straight to their face
Say hello to german TV. I haven't turned mine on in years, for this reason. The only purpose of television here seems to be keeping people stupid, small-minded, conservative, stuck-up fuckheads with no intend to ever look into anything that isn't shoved down their throats

Did you ever saw N-TV or DMAX? Well there you can learn alot and it's not about glamour and mainstream shit.
Actually German TV is great, but not the mainstream channels. I learned alot about UFO sightings, the Glocke, Nazi Technology and all that shit from our better channels!
Computer Nerds? Is it the '90s again?
Fun fact: The Gamescom is the world's biggest gaming event.
