HAHAHA NO TWIST
The cyberterrorists won. Man, I was really hoping there'd be a last second twist or redemption...nope. Man, that was a disaster.
Guys. We live in the universe where there was a gamergate episode about a tv show. This is reality.
That episode must really suck for Kotaku to refuse to toe the line.
Ok I caved and watched the last two minutes. Did they kill the gamer gate? Holy fuck what a disaster.
can someone post a youtube link or some sort of link to this episode when it's done?
I mean, what kind of fucking ending was that. "Sorry we lost." "the end" who the fuck wrote this

Remember: Don't make this about gamergate, make it about gamers.
[QUOTE=Zet;47123742]Remember: Don't make this about gamergate, make it about gamers.[/QUOTE] Why not both? It touched on both subjects extremely badly.
[QUOTE=Zet;47123742]Remember: Don't make this about gamergate, make it about gamers.[/QUOTE] Honestly I'm not sure that makes it any better :v: I don't think any facet of that episode was connected with reality.
my favorite line: "there is no gray area"

[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47123764][img]http://i.imgur.com/P25pPNM.gif[/img] Totally happens.[/QUOTE] is that saints row
[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47123750]Why not both? It touched on both subjects extremely badly.[/QUOTE] Because if we focus on making it about gamers, the episode will just look completely stupid to people who don't know anything about gamergate. They won't even Google it and see kotaku and other aGG sites talking about gamergate.
The most disturbing part of this is reading the Tweets from people who think that was a good episode. It was nuts in a bad way, even by SVU's standards.
Kotaku in action just changed their banner : [img]http://i.gyazo.com/7e84332e3c0616fd78a7a5d0bb1c7d91.png[/img]
Haha, "red channet". Best episode. My parents walked in during the rape part. "Hey son whatcha watching?" as the guy was unzipping his pants. They just walked out without saying anything. Best worst episode.

[QUOTE=Ardosos;47123781]Haha, "red channet". Best episode. My parents walked in during the rape part.[/QUOTE] It looked less like a rape and more like he really needed to take a piss and couldn't hold it until the end of the video.
[QUOTE=Wii60;47123789][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oxcKPpc.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Oh my god I knew I wasn't the only one who thought the guy who died reminded me of those two. I honestly think it was intentional.
Anyone have a synopsis of the episode? I'm hearing a lot of "Gamergate won"
That wasnt from SVU was it? Please tell me it wasnt.
[QUOTE=JesseR92;47123805]That wasnt from SVU was it? Please tell me it wasnt.[/QUOTE] no but in the episode the bad guys captured the dev and beat her on cam while vomit-green "LEVEL COMPLETE" text faded in
Something I just realized. THE WRITERS ALLUDED TO THE "BAD GAMER DUDES" WINNING IN THE END! Why does someone get paid to write this?

[QUOTE=Thlis;47123804]Anyone have a synopsis of the episode? I'm hearing a lot of "Gamergate won"[/QUOTE] It's sarcasm, this happened at the end: [QUOTE=MasterKade;47123710]"Women in gaming? What did I expect?" she gave up and the episode faded to black gamergate wins everybody[/QUOTE] [sp]quoting just because I got pagebutt, yes[/sp]
a solid way to get more women into video games is telling them that doing so will get them raped and kidnapped hurp
[QUOTE=Te Great Skeeve;47123750]Why not both? It touched on both subjects extremely badly.[/QUOTE] it didnt touch on gamergate, at all, actually.
