Mikail, the Quarter to Three forum is affecting your mind adversely. Or is it the Codex? Or both? Eh...

I agree it is lame... that they had to sneak.

I still don't understand how the NMA'ers were deceitful. Were they supposed to scream out "I'm from NMA!", or what? How is attending a meeting for another company, which willingly offers you the place, in any way deceitful?

They had to sneak right through the front door, with valid passes with their names on them.
It's the next-gen, dumbed down sneaking.

I'm not sure who's worse, the NMA nerds for still caring so passionately about F3 or the PC World hack for bothering with such nobodies.

Childish? Never heard of investigative journalism before? Google "journalist sneaked" and see what comes up.

In other words, don't be an idiot.

I don't think going to a press conference counts as investigative journalism. :wink:

The sneaking and the loaded questions. The preview itself was great!

Rephrasing what Dark Sign said, it does when:

a) access to information is restricted and available only to those willing to misinform or not to inform
b) every other way of getting the information failed
c) the outcome is the only detailed and unbiased information, allowing other people to form opinions instead of relying on someone else's ("the game is awesome; you gonna love it, trust me!")

Skull and Bones secret society!!!
An american journalist sneaked in to Bohemian Grove a few years ago and took some fascinating footage of what went on there.
Is that the kind of journalist NMA emulate?

Try again. You don't seem too smart yourself.

Let's see what else is there.

"An American journalist who sneaked into Nagasaki soon after the Japanese city was leveled by a U.S. atomic bomb found a "wasteland of war" and victims moaning from the pain of radiation burns in downtown hospitals. ..."

"...a journalist sneaked in with a judge on an inspection, and exposed prison conditions."

"Now a journalist, Godwin sneaked into the area that had been cordoned off by the army and found signs of gruesome massacres."

"A British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) journalist who sneaked into the region was the first to report the severe and hidden drought to the World in the middle of 2000. Journalist permitted later on to report the famine to world, reported that the region was devastated and almost completely isolated from the World and even Ethiopia. What happened to the grain and medical supplies shipments during the famine crisis? "

"...dressed up as a peasant and sneaked into a prison to interview a group of farmers jailed by a corrupt official. "

" Prison guard or corrections officer? Is the latter a prettified term for an unattractive job? You might change your mind after reading the profoundly eye-opening Newjack: Guarding Sing Sing, by Ted Conover

Conover is a distinguished participatory journalist who in Coyotes sneaked across the Rio Grande with illegal aliens and in Rolling Nowhere rode the rails with hoboes. For Newjack he actually became his subject, having been denied permission to watch corrections officers on their rounds. Under his real name-prison brass never bothered to check out his history-Conover spent seven mind-numbing weeks at the training academy and walked the decaying 170-year-old galleries of New York's mythic Sing Sing Penitentiary for a full year as a bona fide "newjack," a rookie officer."

You're right. These are horrible people who are setting up bad examples for our youth. If one wants information, that's what official reports are for.

Try again. You don't seem too smart yourself.
Not everyone is as smart as you are.

what's the harm that could come from this shit again?
i'm sure it could be fixed with a 90% review of the full game.
