Can I just ask... being a british person I am a little confused...

Why is Rhetoric British exactly?

I mean is there something about Britain, or British people, that makes Rhetoric inherently ours? Or something about Rhetoric that makes it inherently British?

:blink:



I was joking, and I am sorry that it didn't go through.

I was referring to an attitude such as.. hmm. like... Ah well see the image below

Yeah well not happy about Fox News talking about this, they'll mess it up and go off on a tangent. Fox News will probably sum it up as "whiny gamers demand happy game ending", which is completely missing the point.

Oh well least it's getting some press if true.

Remember people: HOLD THE LINE


I hope Fox News takes an approach similar to Forbes [Producer & customer relations] and doesn't have the knee jerk reaction of "it's crazy people", "it's homophobes", etc.

Man, Mass Effect fans must look like real loser now..... sigh

And Im not talking about some, us, who are fans but don't have a cow about it ar forced with this pathetic stigma now too....


Only the ones who say "They are all the crazy minority, everything is great with the ending!" Those are the ones that truly make me embarrassed.

I expect he's referring to the perception of the British as heavy practioners of the understatement. 
"The Troubles" in Northern Ireland, for instant. The name is a bit of an understatement to say the least.

I listened to the CNN video. I can't believe that 90% of the discussion was about the ending and they didn't make us look like IDIOTS!!!

CNN: +50 war assetts
Fox: Haven't heard that one yet.

Homosexual agenda galactic rape simulator that's feeding children full-frontal nudity and hardcore pornography behind parents' backs receives backlash from perverted ungodly fans.

This sounds like a pretty typical Fox News headline.

Hmmm ... O'Reilly may hurt us but he may be a huge war asset to.

Since hes more conservative, he may view the entire 'entitlement" portion same as Forbes.
I also think if it comes to light, those who say hiding behind a charity is disgusting are in for a mouthful from him.

But... its hard to say. time will tell.

Im not a huge fan, so may be missing something, but from what I have seen from him, its possible he will lean towards our side. Just based on his typical view of things.


Conservative? O'Reilly? I've watched him take the left-wing view on too many issues over the years to consider him a right-wing guy. He's a moderate that leans slightly to the right.

Anyway, I suppose it's good to have more media coverage. I just hope Fox doesn't have another guest on that didn't do his/her research on the matter like what happened with ME1. Last thing we need around here is another story for the Fox-haters to point to so as to justify their anti-Fox views. (As though other news networks have never had people on that didn't do proper research on the subject matter)


Still, he's an idiot.

Honestly, I'd feel sorry for Casey Hudson.
Nobody should be within hearing range of O'Rilleys voice, the man makes you loose braincells faster then tequilla shots.

""A fan who wants to see the ending of Mass Effect 3 changed has taken his complaint to the Federal Trade Commission, the agency created to protect consumers.
His argument is that Bioware did not deliver on the promise of its game saying, "after reading through the list of promises about the ending of the game they made in their advertising campaign and PR interviews, it was clear that the product we got did not live up to any of those claims."
He continues by inviting others to file complaints against Electronic Arts with the FTC if they share his sentiments""

... Okay, that's way too extreme. I hated the endings as much as the next person but I believe in being civil and working with BioWare rather than against them. Plus, things like this doesn't exactly add credibility points for us.

Just watched the CNN video. I'm not surprised he avoided spoilers, but he didn't go out of his way to say anything bad about us. And his opinion that Bioware may actually update the ending via DLC.... wow. While it's all speculation, that helps us when it's on CNN live

Yep. That was yesterday. At least they made it clear it was one fan, other sites were implying that it was "Mass Effect 3 fans"

I agree.
It doesn't paint us in a good light either, becasue I fear many will associate this with the take Back ME movement.

I agree with one comment, that many of us do NOT support that form of action, and would rather work with Bioware to come up with a win-win for everyone.
