Now I'm curious. That article mentioned something about JA being the "evil empire." What was this a reference to?

Thanks, but really, what's the deal? What was the incident the article was referring to?


edit: nevermind...I don't really care.

So being gay=being a sissy?

Why don't you tell that to me and my boyfriend's face, we're both 6'4" and built like brick shithouses. It's obvious you're the "sissy" here considering your need to spew hateful words and disrepect for groups you obviously know nothing about to make yourself feel better. You're the one giving adventure gamers a bad name with your tired cliches and closed-minded drivel.

6'4'', eh? Nah, too tall for my taste.

He is trying to hard to be funny and it ain't happening. What remains at the end of it all is as lacklustre as the worst kind of German clown humor.

Kingz! Just be careful not to use your Louis Vuitton Murakami bag, okay? You know how much that cost, and besides, it's still au courant.

Just another reason why JA is 18 times lamer than AG.

Let me just say, that when I was eight years old I told my mom that someday I would be important enough for someone to make fun of me publicly on April Fool's Day, and she's quite proud of me today.

Love you Mom.

Maybe it refers to the fact that JA is seen very negatively by many of AG's forum members, who seem to relish every opportunity to slag it off?

I still don't see what's wrong with JA. The only bad thing I can think about it is that they review non-adventure games, but other thatn that, it's a great site with up-to-date content, and of course, the Inventory. In my humble opinion.

I have top secret information on top secret papers, revealed to me in top secret meetings. But I won't tell anything I know, so don't ask!
