I know this is going to sound terribly autistic, but please tell me I'm not the only one that notices that controller doesn't have two joysticks.

There's only one Playstation I remember off the top of my head that has a version of the controller with the D-Pad only, and that's the PS1. It just feels weird coming from a discussion about games in 2015.

Brianna talks a lot about how controllers these days are awful because of all the buttons and options. Even when we notice, it kind of just... blurs with the rest of her stupid.

Good eye, Sanae. It's a PS1 Controller. Specifically, it's one that's had all branding photoshopped off.

Is the stuff about Frank and his ex-wife going into the wiki? Because Brianna was really hypocritical about that.

I'm really leery about integrating Frank into it. He shits up anything he comes into contact with and I'd prefer to keep focused on the lolcow herself. We'll see.

I suppose you can talk about his work on R60?

"It passes the Bechdel Test...WITH A VENGEANCE!!" might just be one of the dumbest ways I've ever heard someone describe a video game.

Ima use this shit everywhere now.

Also something something tranny rights whatever
 
Back on topic. @zedkissed60, earlier you mentioned that Wu spent months trolling 4chan to drum up support for Rev60. Got any specific examples of that?

That #feminism seems very appropriate to me because that's exactly what this is: Hashtag Feminism, for those who want the "glory" of being a feminist without doing the work of solving real problems.
 
Wu must think just because Tweetsave is down that I'm not smart enough to keep records.

On top of that archive.is link, here's a screencap:

Wu says Danganronpa is awesome and awful from feminist perspective.png


Wu seems to have deleted this after realizing how stupid he sounded.

I'm going to be fair. For Vox, this isn't too bad a piece for them.

Interesting read, but I can't quite see what John hopes to get from tweeting it. John would be a person who would call himself a nerd, and therefore would not quite understand American politics following the article's thesis. That has not stopped him from constantly bleating about social issues that he knows nothing about.
