V-Tech Rampage: Creator Wants Money to Pull Game Down?

V-Tech Rampage drew heavy criticism from the gaming community for its portrayal of the actual shooting incident, with many protesting its removal from the Newgrounds - its current host site. But while the game and its creator have already been drawing heavy flak, the author stated that he will pull the game down... if people payed him. Here reads the statement at his home site (Googumproduce):

ATTENTION ANGRY PEOPLE:
I will take this game down from newgrounds if the donation amount reaches $1000 US, i'll take it down from [my home site] if it reaches $2000 US, and i will apologize if it reaches $3000 US.

Now will anyone pay up???

AzaziL6206d ago

that's like saying I'll pay you if you say yes to marry me, the words mean nothing. as for the money to take it down, if people wanted to, they can just demand newgrounds themselves as well as the servers that are hosting his webpage. If they wouldn't take it down before, now that he's looking to make some money from it, I doubt newgrounds and his site's host would like that, as well as the negative publicity to their sites for no monetary gain.

DirtyRat6206d ago

you would see that him asking for money was "a joke"...

yes HAHA very funny ROFL Mr Ryan

Stupid thing is that if people just ignored it he wouldn't have got the attention he so obviously needs - loser.

All Hopes I Had For A Prey Sequel Have Been Crushed — Well Done, Microsoft

The magnificent Prey was once again abandoned as Microsoft disregarded Arkane Austin's achievements and crucified it just for Redfall.

RaidenBlack16h ago

well, not entirely ... the main Arkane studio i.e Arkane Lyon's still there ...
Its only that, the sequel will take more time now ... after Blade & Dishonored 3

Not even this Prey

Still longing for a sequel to the original Prey with Tommy

The studio didn't even want to call this Prey, it was just Bethesda being dicks to them for some reason.

MS closed Roundhouse Studios (ex-Human Head Studios) as well

Came here to say this, my hooes for a Prey sequel died when this "Prey" came out

LostPotato15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

Keep dreaming then as Prey and Dishonored 2 did not sell well enough to get sequels.

Hence we got Deathloop and Redfall instead.

RaidenBlack10h ago

lol, Deathloop came from Prey: Mooncrash idea

Helldivers 2 Star Wars Mod Looks Pretty Insane

Star Wars is coming to Helldivers 2, unofficially that is, as a new mod revamps in-game models and sends players to a galaxy far, far, away.

Would It Have Even Mattered If Redfall Were Good?

Even if Redfall were a good game, the closure of Hi-Fi Rush proves even that doesn't matter in the industry.

Yeah it would have mattered especially since their huge game that year wasn't all that it was cracked up to be remember redfail was almost heavily promoted and hyped not to the level of starfield but still more promoted than the average game.

There was still a decent marketing campaign behind the game I'm sure millions were spent advertising it on websites and I saw a few billboards and bus stop signs in real life

No it wouldn’t matter it wouldn’t bring in enough profit to offset their 100 billion dollar acquisition. It would maybe delay the inevitable by some months.

CrimsonWing693h ago

I would f*cking think so. Good games are what draws people to your platform. It’s why I adored the 360 era with Gears of War being one of the highlights for me. You make sh*t games and it just makes your platform that much worse and you start gobbling up studios I like and then killing them off it also makes me hate your platform as well… just sayin’

franwex2h ago

Unless the game would’ve been War Zone, or Fortnite level. No. Maybe even Hell divers 2 I doubt would’ve been enough.

Exvalos2h ago

No it would not have, the ABK deal was great for Microsoft but horrible for Xbox. Over 100 billion dollars in acquisitions. That money has to be made back. That ABK deal essentially destroyed Xbox as we know it.
