    NY Times article

    I'm not an Xbox fan, I have a PS3. Don't hate it, but meh. But as a moderate gamer, this made me grin in pride. Thumbs up to the gamer community.

    She apologized. Saying people had told her before that it was pronography and now more people had told her it was definitely not. o_O

    Pwnt. Proof that this sort of people don't know what they're really talking about.

    For some reason, it only exists in Google's cache on the original site :rolleyes:

    Haha, Pwnt.
    For once gamers manage to strike back at the ignorants that bash games without even playing them

    The move is highly hypocritical.
    She bashes a game without knowing about it.
    Gamers, in protest to that move, does the same thing to her books.
    Sure, it is revenge but really...

    C) Don't fuck with a highly acclaimed and highly anticipated game if it's even half as good as the publisher claims it is.

    Meh, she deserved it. She should know better than to bash something while having only heard of it. Sure, gamers did that with her book, but that was payback.:)

    Total pwnage...

    When I saw this segment on Fox News, I immediately rushed to my computer to try and find some Mass Effect porn.

    I spent over an hour browsing through torrent sites to come up with nothing.

    How dare they interfere with the quest for Porn by spreading false info!?!

    But honestly, this gave the best laugh I've had in weeks (save for the time I read reviews for 'My Immortal').
