If ignorance were bliss, the world would be a *much* happier place.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

I really like my Avatar Picture :)

It would be good now to see a proper apology that EA and the Mass Effect team would accept now.

Screw the apology, I wanna see 12 rounds between Bill O'Liely, and a Bioware staffer of Ray Muzyka's choice, Uwe Boll style.

 

Or even Rupert Murdoch vs John Riccitiello.

"And I Aint Ever Ran From A Ninja And I Damn Sho Aint Bout To Pick Today To Start Runnin"

Even with that apology, she still is gonna be one of the worst. This is by far the best and hartwarming(??) response I've ever read on such a situation:

By telephone from Edmonton, Alberta, Ray Muzyka, the medical doctor who is chief executive of BioWare, the Electronic Arts studio that made Mass Effect, said: “We’re hurt. We believe in video games as an art form, and on behalf of the 120 people who poured their blood and tears into this game over three years, we’re just really hurt that someone would misrepresent the game without even playing it. All we can hope for is that people who actually play our games will see the truth.”

Her words are nice but Fox News needs to come out and apologize for the attempted axe job they tried to do on EA and Mass Effect. Hell even their headline was horrible and unprofessional. They might as well of just of written in their headline "EA hates Jews???" because that is the type of garbage reporting they have been doing for a long time. IMHO this woman was a willing pawn for the shills at Fox News.

Games I've played:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, LoTRO, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars, Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H.

Selling Propane and Propane Accessories in a MMORPG near you.

The diss of Mass Effect was from a guest that Fox had on, not one of FOX's anchors or hosts.  I love how you people are blaming Fox for this. They just assumed what she said was true.

Why would a news channel "assume" information? I thought research is done before rumors become true.

Eh, not quite.

First Fox labels the story “Se”Xbox? New Video Game Shows Full Digital Nudity and Sex" , then the host opens with the comment:

"MacCallum: …a new role-playing video game that is leaving NOTHING to the imagination… in some parts of this, you’ll see full digital nudity. Imagine! And the ability for the players to engage in graphic sex and the person who’s playing the game gets to decide exactly what’s going to happen between the two people,"

Pretty much a blatant lie there.
