Wait, hold on, you mean that Konami is still trying to make video games? I thought they gave all that up to ( Read more... )

Shit like this is why I almost completely avoid multiplayer games, in particular, and modern video games as a whole, in general.

And Ubisoft is seeking to punish players who exploit these glitches? Well, hey Ubisoft, how about you don't have glitches like this in your shitty fucking game to begin with? Then maybe players wouldn't be able to " ( Read more... )
