The Behemoth says Castle Crashers is finally complete

Don't bother, not worth it. Just wait for Castle Crashers, mostly because of the online co-op.

Agreed,just wait it out. Can't wait for this one!

i say buy it. the achievements are pretty tough, but rewarding. headchomp anyone?

Yes, because anytime something with a dark outfit is hurt in a game it is glorifying black oppression. Bull fucking shit, no black man has been oppressed within the last lifetime. Only one race in America has suffered any grave injustices within the last 20 years and even they don't deserve the figurative "get out of jail free" pass that comes along with the past injustices. If I ever met the woman who made that silly “this game is racist call” I’d probably be inclined to commit a so-called “hate crime.” Don’t judge my position either, having personally been abused by society physically and financially growing up on the reservation by the moronic majority. Bah, I hate this whole new double-standard bullshit that has sprung up in the last 50 years. Get passed one injustice and simply form a brand new one.

*rants on angrily elsewhere to more people who could care less about what he has to say*

"no black man has been oppressed within the last lifetime"

wow.

where'd you go psycho boy?

I may not be native but I do sympathize, injustices to natives go largely ignored, btw they are worse in Canada (the injustices I mean).

when i applied to college, the university of tennessee's criterion for a full scholarship for residents of tennessee was something like a 30 on the act for a white person, and a 26 on the act for a black person. printed right on the brochure. guess who got a 29?

THAT IS RACISM. But we have to diversify and reward certain people who are less qualified because of the color of their skin. Also, we punish those who are actually more qualified because of the color of their skin. 2 steps forward, 3 steps back.

Yeah exactly, My college offered me all sorts of special cash scholarships just because of my heritage and past, while more qualified people are having to pay for college. The GED grade requirement and Leap requirements for grade and secondary schools here are different for each race, that's racism. I don't care if it is for or against me, it's wrong. I want to be treated the same as everyone else, no better or worse in the eyes of the state and federal government and the same should be said for all races. Entire populations of each race takes advantage of what happened to a small amount of people, which is bullshit. Cashing in on others misfortune is not right.

Within my lifetime alone the government has performed nuclear testing in a hush-hush manner north of where I grew up, poisoning our crops and livestock and causing cancer in nearly all of my elder relatives. The ones that weren't wiped out by cancer were ran off by dumb rednecks. Hell till the 50s the government all but garnished all wages made by natives and wouldn't let them leave their little plots of land without armed escorts(for everyone elses protection of course) and some states had laws allowing the killings of natives in groups of 4 or more in public areas unattended for threat of a war party attack.

The most insane thing of all is how our country has managed to stay so silent about it all. Most natives are so ashamed of who they are they don't speak of it. History is altered everyday by the powers that be so I guess no-one should be supprised.

Another reason I hate the government

It's like that in the UK too.

A relative had to interview 10 people, he knew of 10 white, middle class people who wanted the job. But because of some shitty government thing he had to cut half of them and had to interview people from disabled and minority opportunity groups. He got talking to them and they didn't even want the job. The disabled and minority people were there because they get paid by their respective agencies to get interviews. They had no plans of actually working there.
So in the end 5 people who wanted the job didn't even get the chance to be interviewed.

And you'd get arrested for calling someone a racist name, doesn't work the other way around since the police might then seem racist.

England is going down the politically correct shitter.

Oh and we can't "brainstorm" anymore since migraine sufferers (which I am) and epileptics don't like that word.

Cheers to that. The waiting was practically unbearable, but it will mean some great features that weren't originally announced.

Castle Crashers should be a fun diversion to pass the summer months.

Well, the Behemoth is a developer made up of a handful of guys working on a pretty big, hand drawn 2D game. I'd say something like that would take a good while to do, even considering the ease of XBLA development (Did Microsoft even consider 2D games when they said that?). All of the art is created from scratch, manually animated by a person. You can't really speed that up.

But yeah, excitement! Sorry to single you out with this reply, just had to explain why it probably took so long.

Hey, what's up?

Remember our bet?

Bone up on your American history, he's native American, I expect.

Okay, I hate to say this because I know I will be jumped but what fight exactly? I know, I know, I'm white and I have no idea what it's like being discriminated against growing up in the poor largely black community around St. Louis. Growing up being called a white mother fucker and an itty whitey dick all the time just doesn't seem to relate in any way whatsoever or needing to cover my skin when visiting a friend because his next door neighbor threatened to "cap my white ass" if he saw me passing by his house. Clearly I have no reference for this point.

But I busted my ass for all my good grades and even avoided most fights all the way up through middle school and missed many programs and activities because I wasn't "unfortunate enough." By middle school, didn't give a shit anymore. The system had beaten me and I took it like a dog.

As my family improved their station in life (finally to the point where my mother only needed to work one job and then finally we moved out of the poor house), I continued to not care. But I did bust my ass to get into my chosen profession and had a fairly rough time of it. Not because of race, but because of the industry as a whole.

Now despite my experiences, all throughout my college education, I was told about how hard it was for minorities. I was fighting tooth and nail, working a full time factory job while attending class full time and driving an hour each way because that was the only place I could afford housing but apparently I didn't know about hard work or being poor. I was eating ramen and salads for the better part of two years because that was what I could afford, but I just had no frame of reference.

One day, in computer ethics class, I snapped on a dude. We were arguing the ethics of software piracy on professional tools. He was against it, which is understandable, but I defended it stating that it allows children and teens who cannot afford the multi thousand dollar software a chance to learn the trade and possibly build a future for themselves in the technology industry without needing to go to college. This man, decked out in expensive clothing with the latest iPod (which was gen 2 at the time) and cellphones countered my point by asking what a white slave owner knew about hardships or not having money. Despite the very common misconception, not all white in the US owned slaves. In fact, it was quite the opposite. But here I was, worrying about the next rent check and being told I don't know shit about struggle because I'm white. A very common belief throughout the entire US.

And then I hear about this fabled struggle. Everytime I turn around. I'm not saying it doesn't exist because considering how hard I had to fight out of poverty, I imagine others in the same boat. But I am tired of having to be hyper sensitive because I'm white and nobody gives a shit pulling the punches on me. I'm tired of living in a community that fully supports racism, as long as it's against white people.

Nobody in this world has it easy. Well, okay, rich people have it easy. But nobody else does.
