Capcom: Brits are tax dodging, cheating deviants

14
Gamer reports: "Apparently it all has something to do with DMC4: Capcom has revealed that we Brits aren't quite as reserved as we're made out to be, after posting the results of a survey conducted as part of its Devil May Cry 4 marketing push.

As part of the build up to DMC4's launch, Capcom launched poll site setfreethedevilinside.com, and published the results of its findings today – and what interesting findings they are.

Devil May Cry 4 is out today, and as you'll see from our review, is well worth a punt. Or at least, it is if you're not spending all of your spare time spanking your boss while your partner's sat at home wondering why you've not sent off your tax form yet."

Capcom is a money grubbing company with no honor or loyalty, so I guess it's all fair.

Since when was "honor or loyalty" part of general business?

Snappy snappy... Clearly you have not read the article at all. It was a joke polling in viral marketing.

Chill out. If anything, no one was forced to answer these poll questions as they have. They're just showing the results based on how people freely answered.

Don't be a hater!

"Apparently the Scots are the most devilish people in the UK, followed by those in East Anglia and the South East of England."

XD. I'd say we're more efficient than devilish when it comes to money.

Screw you Capcom.

********.

Unfortunately we pay 17.5% tax, unlike the Americans, which is why I think we are more willing to fiddle tax. We wouldn't mind if it was spent in useful ways, but it's just used on sponging asylum seekers who put back nothing to the country. Also worth noting that we pay 2 or 3 times as much per litre of fuel, and even games are nearly double the price (in the US they are like $40 which is 20 pound, ours are 30-40)
