Topic: How out of touch is Microsoft (Satire Site - article is not true :P)

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

So much out of touch they didn't even know that their own Rare Co. Ltd. made the original Killer Instinct games.

At this point, I think Microsoft would just be better off firing EVERYONE that has anything to do with their videogame department and starting over from scratch.

With nothing but crazed hobos and and particularly stupid monkeys on the payrolll.  Because they really couldn't do any worse. 

"Hey, you know that game we own?  Well, people at our company actually made it.  Who knew?"

I've just been informed that that site, p4rgaming, is like the Onion of videogame news sites.
So the legitimacy of my original post is now debatable.  Blargh.

Keep in mind, this is microsoft.  At this point, I'm not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on anything.

While true, when the news comes from a source that is definitely not a credible one, then I think Microsoft wins out. It's like saying, the Onion posted a news saying Obama, Bush, and Clinton have raped all the children Mexico over the past 15 years. You'd take that news over reality. And you REALLY hate all those presidents and their policies.

I was gonna say something else, but I'm sure people would've been even more touchy about that one. So this one that's pretty bad is good enough.

My goodness......the Microsoft is so out of touch its not even funny, its downright sad.

How could they NOT know that Rare made other games?

Or First person shooters for that matter?

Hell, did they forget the critically acclaimed  007 Goldeneye?

And now Killer Instict.

If it were true then people would need to be fired for not using Google to get informed. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if it were true.

They're not allowed to use Google, that's a competitor now I think.
