    N'Gai Croal is a piece of shit who has less "gamer cred" than my 5 year old sister

    just seeing his name is rageworthy.

    I didn't even read the rest of your post, but it is probably him being a faggot

    Its the veridian dynamics debacle all over again. Clearly Natal should ship with a white person to mimic the black person playing.

    It will just come with a regular controller that is labeled "For Coloreds."

    As soon as I heard about this problem with Natal it was the first thing that came to mind. Shame it seems the 2nd half of Season 1 is getting delayed. -_-

    I was not aware there was a second half. I thought it was just the 7 or 8 eps, although it did get renewed.

    They only filmed the half a dozen or so episodes but the show was supposed to have a full first season. Thankfully it got renewed but I'm not sure what's going on with it; if they'll film the rest of season 1 or turn it into season 2.

    And by that you mean he is one of the only journalists in the gaming world who seems to care about the social impact of games, right?

    but lol Natal is such incredible fail.

    Actually, I think the whole tendency to scream RACISM at every little irrelevant detail dealing with a person's skin color (which is about as relevant as the length of their mustache) is itself what's racist and what's causing the problem in the first place.

    Also, fucking lol @ BRP's comment. But then again, I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
