First of all, did the journalist she sleep with have any real clout? I'm not defending her actions, and she sounds like a habitual liar, but I've never head of any of these guys. Now, if it was like the editor in chief of WIRED, or something that is actually under a media company, I could see why there's cause for concern. Let's face it, that standard for "games journalism" is pretty low.

If Dramatica's article is to be believed...maybe?

Brandon McCartin was the co-developer for Fez, and Nathan Grayson is a Kotaku/RockPaperShotgun reviewer. Robin Arrot is a friend of Phil Fish, and Joshua Boggs is her boss.
 
IIRC, Quinn screamed misogyny and harassment when her game didn't do well on Greenlight for the first time. Then, during this new debacle, she blamed 4chan and /v/ for harassing her, although they weren't even involved before she called them out.

You realize that she's an indie game developer, right? That's some flagrant nepotism.

Although after seeing the guy she boinked, that was my reaction too.

I'm just talking about the name of the committee, don't tell me that the picture that immediately comes to you mind isn't completely laughable.

Not entirely true. 4chan and /v/ were involved from the moment the ex went public, trying to raise awareness and get gaming news sites to pick up on this story. After that is when she went full damage control; this is the second time she's attempted to blame /v/ (oh, I'm sorry; I meant /V/) for getting hacked.

Ah, thank you for clarifying. Yeah, I can see that, but I'm mostly just sickened with how sleazy this whole thing is.
 
So if Zoe and her cohorts really did intentionally fuck over GAME_JAM and cost Maker Studio some $400k, and Maker Studios and the producers decide to take them to court.
A) they're all so fucked and B)

How deep does the rabbit hole go!?!?!?! This is turning into the one of the best "For Want of a Nail" IRL stories ever.

You people should be embarrassed to know who most of these retards are. (Not that I'm not following this thread.)

When these are the loudest idiots in gaming journalism its hard not to recognize their screeching, banshee-like wailing. It's just a fucking embarrassing circus of an industry, and these people are the clowns.

This was actually really good, certainly much better than his first one. Always nice to hear that David Jaffe conversation.

Also, super disappointed in cogsdev and slowbeef.
