I already commented on the black issue on NeoGAF. It didn't get me a ban. My response was:
"Speedstick, it's not expensive."
Yea, it's going to rock.

Why the hell do you keep talking about getting banned from NeoGAF. Also, where the hell did they come from with the 2400 active users. They get a pocket dev like FoH did?

They're the biggest North American gaming forum. Jaffe, Allard (well, he's banned), and a shitload of other devs post there.
Also, I like speedstick. It's not expensive.
Oh, and are they really that far along with RE5 that they had that much playable footage? Will we actually see it in 2008? Fo rizzle?

If you count GameFAQs no it isn't. Also, a quick glance at their board makes me wonder why you care. Those boards are a complete shithole. It's a mini-GameFAQs + devs. |

They get news much faster than Gamefaqs. And unlike Gamefaqs, it's easy to navigate. Also, Gamefaqs isn't Just a Messageboard. The NG frontpage is more non-existant than ours.
In fact, they get news faster than everyone. They're full of internet detectives. Kotaku, Joystiq, etc could not exist without NeoGAF doing their work for them.

The Spanish ganados seemed to move at a more languid pace compared to the frenetic action in the newest RE5 trailer. <insert self deprecating joke here>
I am psyched for this.

I'm very annoyed since the mp4 version of the trailer randomly freezes in VLC and plays only in black and white in Windows Media Player.

Yeah it seems like the black zombies has already started a problem. Funny how the Spaniards had no problem with us shooting their virtual knees and faces.

I recall that the Spaniards actually did have a bit of a problem and Capcom pointed out that nowhere in RE4 did they ever mention specifically they were in Spain. But where else would they be?
No one is going to like being the group that is being shot and killed.

Well, the "spaniards" called us UN POLICIA and such in Resident Evil 5.
Black people better yell "5-0 nigga, FIVE MOTHERFUCKING O" or I'm gonna be very angry.
Edit: I'm sorry. I don't do sensitive.

I don't think the game is set in Philadelphia. I expect them to speak French.

I blame myself for perpetuating black stereotypes for you by watching "The Wire" without headphones on, but then again it is Baltimore and that is how they talk. lol @ black people defending the rights of black zombies. |

Likelihood of shit-storm over the new "ganados" being black people: 80%. It's because we've killed all the white zombies. Next. |

I'm pro-'pissing off a minority by having all of the zombies be of that minority' but anti-'letting the white supremacists have a game that lets them shoot minorities exclusively and say some stupid shit like "I'm training for the race wars"'. This leaves me rather conflicted. But mostly I'm against having to deal with a dozen zombies at a time while having to use an analog stick for aiming.

Note: Never heard a black person complain about Grand Theft Auto, Crackdown, or Saint's Row. And as far as I can tell, the people in those games weren't zombies.
I think.

I read plenty of complaints from white boyz complaining that they had to be a black character. Especially for GTA: SA. They had no problem with shooting those of other colour, however. Make of that what you will. |

It's not racism unless the boss at the end of the level is white.

As a person who didn't play GTA:SA for that reason I make of it that I didn't relate to the character (or the hiphop culture) in the game so didn't bother. It's the same reason my MMO characters are never female, etc. I think maybe you're trying to make some comment here where for most people it's not deserved? I have no problems with shooting anyone in a game though except women and kids, for some reason even in a game I feel like a freak when I do that. Which means I expect to be highly conflicted by Bioshock. It's not racism unless the boss at the end of the level is white.
It'd be funny as hell if he was dressed up as some kind of plantation owner or something! What? *raises fist* I'm solid! |

Certainly some people did not like controlling a black character in San Andreas, but I agree that these same people would likely not have played Beyond Good & Evil, The Longest Journey or maybe not even Metroid. They didn't seem to have any trouble playing an Italian in Vice City, so what does that mean?

You know, it just occured to me. I did play those other games but don't play females in MMOs. Maybe it has something to do with the genre or something. I know in San Andreas my deal, more than race or anything else, was the percieved gang banger aspects of the game. I don't like that lifestyle, even in entertainment so was totally turned off from the game. |

I'm saying that I refuse to direct link any Gordon Freeman images because last time I direct link'd an image, everyone nearly got fired.

OK. I thought you were going to link a site about Gordon being Hispanic or something.

1) You're blind. he is about the most pasty faced white man ever. 2) Even if he was, he's a scientist not a gang banger so he's more "relateable." |

1) You're blind. he is about the most pasty faced white man ever. 2) Even if he was, he's a scientist not a gang banger so he's more "relateable." He's not white, he's had his blood diluted by The White Man. Do you know any white people named Gordon Freeman? That club others with a crowbar? That lead his people to freedom? Actually, in seriousness, I would love to have a real discussion of this issue but I'm very sure the Intertubes would not suffer it. I'll just say that I figure my assertion that Gordon Freeman is black has about as much validity as asserting he is white. |

Hell. How could I have missed it? Gordan Freeman was the Lovechild of Martin Luther King, Ghandi, and Ho Chi Minh in some weird, freak Teleporter accident. In his veins flows the blood of The Oppressed. His voice is that of Liberty.
Obviously, he'll be played by Samuel L. Jackson in the movie.
