Thanks for pointing that one out. Hilarious.

Rather like the original “Doom”—which, aside from introducing the concept of user-generated levels to gaming, also is almost certainly the most controversial game in history


I didn't stop here but I knew nothing good lay beyond this sentence.

For starters, the “person” referred to is a demon, not a person, and furthermore, the act of using a chainsaw to destroy an enemy is far from unique to “Doom.”


This sentence is so fucking dumb on so many levels. The FF and McIntosh tweets never referred to the demon as a person so who the fuck knows why it's in quotations. The closest I see is "It’s really troubling (and depressing) that the #BE3 audience is enthusiastically cheering for bodies being ripped apart." You can be troubled by non-human bodies ripped apart, like the thousands of angry Tweets if this was a kitten. Second of all, neither argued that using a chainsaw was unique to Doom. There's no expiration date on criticism. AND I LIKE USING CHAINSAWS IN GAMES! The obvious rebuttal is that if Doom 4 is as fun as Doom 3, everyone will think hacking people apart with chainsaws is really boring so nobody will do it.

You can tell he's so proud of this shit too. Has he written any non-gaming stuff?
