Geeks Above The Law
by Steve Gibson, Jul 19, 1999 4:50pm PDTCheck this out from Scott Miller's .plan update which should ruffle some feathers. Release the hounds!
This quote, from the Lead Programmer at UK game developer Elixir Studios (www.elixir-studios.co.uk), needs a broader audience: Describing players of first-person action games like Quake in the July 1, '99 issue of GameWEEK (page 8), Demis Hassabis said: "[They are] geeky bedroom teenage boys who want a sense of power and who need to feel above the law." FYI, Elixir Studios has partnered with Eidos for their first three games, the first coming in 2000. I for one am looking forward to playing their games as a diversion from my geeky teenage above-the-law power trip.

But just in case I ever buy a game from Elixir Studio stick a cattle prod up my ass and kill me. And I mean the slaughterhouse kind of prod.
It is a grey screen with two little graphics and the following text:

Yeah I guess, I\'d be proud too.. well no, I\'d have other things on my mind.
