Buy Batman used at GameStop, get free Catwoman code
Oct 15th 2011 2:37PM (Joystiq)How is Gamestop losing money? You trade in game for $25....they sell it for $54, ....even with including $10 DLC, they still come out ahead.
They would be crazy to have paid the same for the DLC that the consumer did, believe your common sense... they did not. They prob got huge discount if they paid anything at all.

Square Enix responds to Deus Ex racial controversy
Sep 1st 2011 4:12PM (Joystiq)I don't see your point.
The real test isn't to ask for proof of "every" other black person, but if other races of people talked or behaved in demeaning ways that would be offensive to those respective races.
Knowing the history of our country it's extremely arrogant to tell someone not to be offended by something like this.
No it's not "stop the presses", "ban the game", etc. No it's not that. It's that it is the year 2011 and we have to still discuss things like this.
Would someone do this to Jews, or victims of 9/11, or Pearl Harbor victims? Heck no, the developer would be tarred & feathered. Just for "ONE" occurrence.
So it's not wrong for someone to speak up and say, "I'm offended by you in 2011 telling a future story of 2027 & depicting a black woman digging in garbage and speaking as if she was born in slavery."
that's just not cool.

Sep 1st 2011 3:53PM (Joystiq)I work everyday with inner city youth & adults and NONE of them talk stereotypical slave language.
Freedom of speech & art aside, it's not "funny" that people still depict blacks that way, it's reprehensible.
