Support NeoGAF

[gamerforever]

I don't really give a shit but it's crazy to see the reaction difference here vs. Era. It seems you just have to play a long there or just get banned. Everyone seems so fake with the same opinion on everything. Like bots.

Yeah noticed that too, GAF for life.

It's always that way lol. Resetera is a joke.

Not a fan of Sony flaunting around statements "being silent is being complicit"... don't get all high and mighty there...

what the fuk is this for real

Yeah no. I refuse to believe that's real!

What's wrong with that place? Are those people spambot or lobotomized by some kind of cult?
It's surreal. If we were in 1945 i could imagine an identical forum under the Third Reich.

I was in Resetera only for the news, not for the community, but it's starting to be unconfortable.

I just logged out forever from that place, it's a nightmare.

There's a better response yet:

Hmm, so righteous!

Classy of Sony. Annoying as fuck as PS gamer who was counting down though.

Preorder cancelled, I mean postponed, but maybe cancelled. It's so lame that they are doing this. Those protesting or rioting are not going to pay attention and everyone else could use a distraction. I could have actually preordered a system if they went live on the 4th. The 12th is right in the middle of a 2 week work thing where I can't really dick around trying to buy something online until after 5PM.

This pretty much confirms that the console is white.

Don't worry, Sony just probably meant it's all the actual looters and rioters that are going to be rebuilding everything /s

 

[turtlepowa]

Marketing is such a great thing. Sell people crap and they think they got gold.

 

[gela94]

Now we should start a protest against sony

 

[NeoGiffer]

Don't worry, they can just push back this reveal by two weeks, by then the issues of systemic racism and police misconduct in the US will be solved, and they can reveal their product with a clean conscience.

 

[Jack Videogames]

Yeah no. I refuse to believe that's real!

It unfortunately is. Sony's been wokely snapping at anyone that dares doubt or discuss the purity of their intentions.

Lol that it is going to leave a shitstain.

Hmm, so righteous!

They should have never picked up this kind of discussion and I am relatively certain that someone will soon get some very, very serious discussions internally with global scale video calls to explain himself what he actually thought while answering like this. It's not HIM answering it's Sony. I don't know if he fully understood what he is doing right now.

 

[MoreJRPG]

Hope someone leaks it now.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Really???

because I didn't know there were people who can read minds and see through someone and their actions from overseas!

every damn company is doing the same damn thing and have been expressing the same sentiments across the board all week long!

like what the actual fuck is wrong with y'all man! It's just a fucking console and we have people lives out here being ruined from some shit we silently protested about years ago and been praying and shit for the past 400 to get y'all to understand and treat as just as equally as our white peers!

now it's chaos and your precious game reveals gets delayed and you still don't give a fuck!

fuck the fuck off!!!

It's just a console to you, to me it's a decades long hobby that I've put my life and considerable amount of money in to.

It's just a dude killed by police brutality

Now fuck off to politics or REee I want to discuss video games

 

[Jacob4815]

I'm hoping for a massive leak, they deserve it.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Jesus Christ this thread is full of racist ass people lol

Jigga, please

 

[Badlucktroll]

Hopefully its only delayed a week. I wish they would give us a new date.

 

[Jayjayhd34]

Yeah no. I refuse to believe that's real!

Please tell me thats not real ?

what the fuk is this for real

This is very stupid to say. Iraq is still doomed, Palestine is still fighting for YEARS, Africa is getting shit on....etc

I guess "Human Rights" and the "people that matters" only exists in some countries and not the whole world....

 

[MoreJRPG]

And another thing u fucking racist idiots. Sony news could get drowned out with all that's going on. Normally when Sony shows it's console it's a big deal in every form of media. With all this going on the coverage will not be there. Waiting a week or 2 or even a fuckin month won't fucking hurt u racist ass dorks

The country that buys the most PlayStations get the most "support"

 

[Hideous Snake]

The country that buys the most PlayStations get the most "support"

Hmm, yes. This makes more sense to me instead of companies suddenly acting humane.

 

[Swadedtx]

@Jigsaah @ultrazilla @Jesb I appreciate that info. Welp, this might've been a personal beef played out through abuse of power after all. It just might happen to incidentally look racially motivated because of the optics but it seems like that might not've been the case.

Doesn't excuse what the cop did at all, mind; he's an asshole, he knew he was killing the guy at least in some way. But they let personal beef blind them to it and maybe they got the other cops to watch over him for it since they didn't do anything to stop him.

Really the whole situation screams like a complete abuse of power and corruption being at the heart of things, but again due to the optics and the way certain stuff is in society now in terms of social things, most people are turning it into a racial issue (on all sides). This recent case potentially not being racially motivated doesn't mean there aren't cases where police incidents have been racially motivated, but it helps to keep perspective and getting more info like this is useful.

I doubt the media will actually take a look at the scenario from that angle though, doesn't nab enough ratings. And the people who have staked their flags on the hill to make this for or against black people aren't going to care, either. Most of them are stuck in their own ways.

The question is why did this blow up like it did. The truth is the Intel agencies want Trump out his image hurts the country. The CIA implements these sams tactics when it tries to over throw a leader in another country people start protest and the cops and media put together systems to force riots.

 

[GeorgPrime]

Its all about Marketing.

Right now every protester praised PS 5 and knows that it will be revealed soon. Thats they reason they destroyed the Microsoft store xD

 

[Bartski]

am I seeing things or did Sony just tweet in defense of looting?????
How can anyone possibly think...
oh...

In Defense of Looting

This is a 2014 Ferguson era article but I think the critiques and defenses are mostly unchanged. https://thenewinquiry.com/in-defense-of-looting/ And posted this in another thread yesterday but:

www.resetera.com

 

[DynamiteCop!]

Just like Microsoft.

Microsoft isn't canceling an event.

 

[Beelzebubs]

After browsing Twitter all morning I genuinely wouldn't be surprised to see someone posting that "Those aren't protesters, they're people waiting in line to pre order a console"

 

[FranXico]

Microsoft isn't canceling an event.

But they are virtue signalling, as you call it.


Unless you think it's ok when MS does it.

 

[CrysisFreak]

Those looting parasites ruined my week how can I have revenge?

 

[Md Ray]

2020 is ranking among the most incredible years of all time

Looting and pillaging thinking you are showing the finger to the system and injustice but in reality you are just a lowlife thief.

 

[Bartski]

holy shit

 

[Hendrick's]

Oh Soony, get fucked. What about the deaths and injury caused by the rioters?

It's a games reveal for crying out loud.

 

[Jacob4815]

LOL that Sony PR has to be a troll or something.

If not, Sony is seriously sick.

 

[skneogaf]

Exactly why has it been cancelled? Was it the murder, the demonstrations, the looting, covid-19, or a bit of all of it as I must admit I'm quite surprised as this isn't the first time the first three things have happened unfortunately and it won't be the last.

I wonder if they'll get it done before the last of us 2 release date?

I thought once the police officer was arrested then it would calm down as looking at America from England it looks like it is a regular thing but not caught on camera.

I agree with the delay I think but I am surprised.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

It's a games reveal for crying out loud.

And I care more about games than how a foreign country conducts its justice system.

You and the others seem to forget that it is possible not to give a fuck.

 

[CrysisFreak]

Sony should've stayed Japanese instead of focusing on that British ex-colony in the west.
The degeneracy is starting to trigger me and as someone who's got nothing to lose I'll probably sperg out one day too.
Also fuck hivemindera.
BANNED PERMANENTLY

 

[MDSLKTR]

Loot back!

lol, is that account really not hacked? Why are the answering to every single comment?

Yeah, calling it, someone has hacked their account. No company is that dumb.

 

[MoreJRPG]

holy shit

There's no way that's real? Someone's gone rogue. Bail out people on film stealing, destroying property and assaulting people with weapons???

 

[Psykodad]

Microsoft isn't canceling an event.

Easy to do when you don't have an event planned for this week.

 

[SantaC]

Yeah noticed that too, GAF for life.

neogaf is the best forum on the net. I am allowed to have an opinion here unlike shitera.

freedom for life!
