at first I thought this might have been written by a woman, especially the part about bayonetta. a very jealous wombyn indeed.

but I continued reading because hey it's cracked and I found a part that is very true (of course it doesn't apply to me)

"Oh-oh. What's the complaint that has everyone up in arms? Is there a cheap twist at the end? Is the main character two-dimensional? Is there a frustrating minigame where you have to carefully groom Alan's pubic hair?

No. It turns out somebody took a screenshot of the game, zoomed in 500 percent and counted up the pixels to make sure every frame was rendering at the maximum 720p resolution the Xbox 360 is capable of."

someone zoomed in on a screenshot, found an area that looks pixilated when you zoom in on it a shitload, and it apparently caused a 5000 post shitstorm

I dunno if I would blame gamers so much as I would just blame children
