nice try, it was great regardlessI thought Kotor 2 was a really awesome game, yet years later and many forum opinions accounted for, it went down in history as unfinished, rushed, and lacking in content.
It's the last phase of production when everyone looks like this:wuts crunching? is that the sound of doritos being eaten?
Do you guys know any other industry where someone talks about forcing their employees into sustained (and often unpaid ) overtime in a positive way?

The financial industry is apparently miles worse than software when it comes to overtime and other demands made on the employees.Do you guys know any other industry where someone talks about forcing their employees into sustained (and often unpaid ) overtime in a positive way?
Disgusting monsters.But these idiots have internalized it to such an extent that they basically put the crunch period in their initial project schedule, and even boast about it on Twitter.

There difference is that the finance folks get paid enough money that they can retire at 30....
As much as the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 might suffer from the delay of Ubisoft's Watch Dogs, that may seem minor compared to the impact to the publisher itself. Ubisoft's shares have taken a pounding today, with the company's stock trading down 22 percent as of this writing.
Watch Dogs had been expected to be one of the biggest attractions for the next-generation systems, an open-world game based on a new intellectual property available at launch for both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. That was until yesterday, when Ubisoft announced it was pushing back Watch Dogs to spring of 2014 because it wasn't yet ready for launch.
The Watch Dogs delay may be the most disappointing news for gamers, but it was just one of a number of Ubisoft setbacks for investors. The publisher also pushed its open-world racing game The Crew into the next fiscal year, and revealed that recent releases Rayman Legends and Splinter Cell: Blacklist failed to meet the company's sales expectations. Those factors put together were reason enough for Ubisoft to lower its full-year sales forecast more than €400 million, or about 30 percent.
[CORRECTION]: The original version of this article contained a mistaken share price (although the percentage decline was accurate). Ubisoft shares ended the trading day down 26 percent to $8.19.
Sure, but Ubi probably made a retarded sales projection.Rayman was really cool tough.
