Gamecock Q&As

Yeah, like games aren't enough under attack. Let's name our company something that perpetuates the typical gamer myth (the one where all of us are horny teenage boys) and gives ammo to all the game haters in Congress and elsewhere. Stupid.

I cant help but lol everytime i see that name lol

What would be interesting here is a layout of what exactly they’re going to do different this time around. All I see is them talking about how awesome Gathering was, which it wasn’t. Sure, Gathering had a few good properties that brought in cash, but it got bought up and dissolved exactly because of the bad decisions of its leaders – so what the fuck? Why would you even want to mention that you couldn’t even keep a company together long enough to make cash of its prime draws?

Really I wish them the best of luck, the four titles they have on their website look interesting and I hope they do well, because a publisher like that would be a godsend, but right now I don’t really see much that’s different, hopefully they’re being more modest this time around and aren’t relying on these four titles selling like hot cakes.

Name aside, this is one of those situations where the games are gonna have to speak for themselves because Mike Wilson is a human hype engine. Smart and all but come on we've been here before with the same suspects.

To all of you talking about the name. Read this Q&A from earlier today:

It's just a name of the company, it's not going to be seen on the games or anything so why would anyone care?

This is the "nobody will buy the Nintendo Wii unless they rename it" argument all over again. :)

That is really a bad choice for a name... They talked about getting their act together and delievering on more of what they promised under G.O.D, but with that name who's going to take that seriously?

seriously, what went through the persons mind who created that mind?

my only question is why they would pick that name

I laugh everytime I hear this LOL
