Still gettin the 'they didn't know' argumentsThey probably had no idea that stuff was on the website and decided to post there because it was decided on a whim without knowing all the details of the website. It's not the publisher's fault but the PR person, I don't see THQ proper as the ones responsible.
Ghostbusters is getting a remake?!What is it with these random as fuck remasters. First that Ghostbusters game and now this.
This is incredibly fucked up, how does Nickelodeon allow this stuff to happen?
Yup PS4 only it seems
Ghostbusters being remastered isn't random a thing all, this year is the 35th Anniversary and they're having a huge marketing blitz leading up to Ghostbusters 3 next summer.What is it with these random as fuck remasters. First that Ghostbusters game and now this.
I cannot believe people still wave around this weak ass argument when it's been pulled apart numerous times.They probably had no idea that stuff was on the website and decided to post there because it was decided on a whim without knowing all the details of the website. It's not the publisher's fault but the PR person, I don't see THQ proper as the ones responsible.
I'll be honest, that's rad. If there's one game I've always wanted to see a remaster/remake of, it was this one. Like, I love the game to death.
That said, no, fuck off THQ.
Harmless? Harmless?! Signal boosting a site known for child porn, right wing terror, and white supremacy is harmless?! That event unleashed some uncomfortable and traumatizing memories, it caused my PTSD to act more than usual, and I had to set up at least two appointments a week for my therapist, and you call it harmless?!
YES THEY DID, ENOUGH! YOU CANNOT EVEN GET INTO 8CHAN VIA GOOGLE SINCE THEY BLACKLISTED IT! THESE THINGS TAKE MONTHS OF PLANNING!!

Take it up with a mod. They've decided this is what they want to do. Folks who don't want to see it can easily ignore it if they like. I've had cases where I've disagreed with others on similar matters and I can manage go about my business without losing my mind and telling those who may care about an issue to fuck off or whatever else. I guess the answer would be for some of the posters here to just grow up.
No one HAS to respond to anyone cussing out THQ or make up silly arguments about how "fuck thq" also means fuck Janet, the single mother of two working in THQ's accounting division.
I'm really sorry you went through this. But I can't quite compute how an AMA on an alt right horrendous forum caused you mental health issues?
Dude, people warned them when they announced the AMA. Amazing how people are bending over backwards to defend practices that effectively helped signal boost a pedophile neo nazi nest that has direct ties to mass murderers. Nice.They probably had no idea that stuff was on the website and decided to post there because it was decided on a whim without knowing all the details of the website.

You're months too late on that discussion, and wrong.
Apparently the rest of the the topic. Sorry for the snark, but you can glean plenty of info and links just on this page alone.

uhh i just looked at some gameplay of the original one and i'm not sure why people are hyped, it looks like a pretty standard 3D platformer. is this game really good or is it just nostalgia?
Why not used?Aw man... I think they got me; I really want to buy this. :\ (I knew it would happen eventually; this game is really good)
probably the best solution indeed; I can't afford too many games a year and Switch is already packed this year; --I'm saving for CTR, actually!

This thread is yet another example of why the gaming industry will always be shit
Did people really expect Viacom/Nick not to work with THQ after the 8chan incident? That seems..........naive. The general public probably has no clue about what happened to begin with.
Here's a question I want people to think about carefully from this image as well, "How do you know that those images and videos of you are floating around the internet?" There was an incident in 2014, where some online troll decided to email those videos to me, I became well aware that the stuff was floating around online. 8chan is known to host links to child porn. Add the two together, alongside what I wrote in this image.
Do you what I fear the most? Reliving those two months of hell. It's one thing I have to accept in my life that I was raped as a child, but finding out that recordings of that hell are floating around the internet is another ball game, and to be reminded of that is equally hell.
Why do you constantly keep posting about your tragic experiences as a child that in no way relates to any of this? I'm sorry that stuff happened to you, I really am but at a point it your hate for THQ doesn't seem too genuine and it feels like you just want people to feel sorry for you. Nobody is going to stop buying games form THQ because of an event that happened to you that a game publisher had no part in.
You really told a child prostitution survivor "You just want to people to feel sorry for you" huhWhy do you constantly keep posting about your tragic experiences as a child that in no way relates to any of this?
