Comment on Occupy Wall Street. Pros and Cons by Hunter Bliss

I think the occupy protests severely lack the proper media exposure they require. No source gives them credit for doing something right, but instead they deem them enemies to capitalists. They say that one can’t simply take from the rich and give to the poor, but I think it’s more than that. I think these occupy protests just want a life that makes sense. People are ripped off and robbed everywhere these days, and I think it’s time we check the status of corporate power. It’s time we start protesting for a rational world where everyone has the ability to control their own lives without so much government interference.

Excellent points all around. I cant stand FPS games because i suck at them. I cant keep up with that style of play and often get left behind or just straight repeatedly dying. I also have horrible memory so i cant play fighting games because i just end up button mashing. And that doesn’t often work too well against people who know what they are doing. So i don’t play them. Doesn’t mean i don’t sit there and watch others playing wishing i would have a chance. I don’t let my skill change my opinion of a game. If someone calls something legendary and i haven’t heard of it, doesn’t make it any less legendary, just makes me out of the loop. So i understand exactly what you mean. Well put.

The fighting genre is still going on pretty strong. EVO had more views and players than it has had ever. So, I’d disagree with the idea of the genre being killed off.

The second point you bring up, is fairly subjective. What you and I call a quality product may be different, but did Capcom not deliver on what they said they would give you?

If you don’t like the game, I can understand that, but that does not mean a game is not a quality product. Again, I’ve dealt with games that had far less content, that didn’t get nearly as much negative said against it. The game may not be what you wanted, but doesn’t make it bad. It means you wanted something different.

But, again, quality is subjective. Most people find it’s quality to be quite high, and most of the complaints I have seen (yours could be different, I don’t know) tend to be on they wanted more than was promised. So, that DOES lead to the entitled mindset.

Yeah, Capcom “revived” the fighting genre only to kill it off again. Also, wanting a quality product does not mean people are feeling “entitled” by ANY means.

Oh, Magnus was a name he gave to himself for a long while. It was the only name people knew for him. In fact it still hangs around

In the X-Men: Evolution season one finale, Charles calls Magneto by tthe name of Magnus. What’s that about?
