I watched the episode yesterday and thought Marcus was being a bit harsh but for Phil to outright cancel the game over it is ridiculous.
Marcus annoyed gamer is a real douche imo anyway I hope GT drop him he comes across as if his opinion is that of every adult gamer when it's his own bullshit spin most of the time.
He did the same kind of thing with hiphopgamer only hhg replied via yt and called Marcus out and made him look like the muppet he is.
I don't really get why Marcus is relevant or a part of GT. Sure he dev'd on a few games forever ago but now he makes cash from videos saying controversial stuff that is mostly his own ignorant opinions.
He is more the annoying gamer than the annoyed gamer!
lol @ hhg.
Anyways, I love Marcus, the guy is right about majority of the stuff. I'm glad he called out Fish. I'm just going to copy and paste my comment on another site:
"It boggles my mind that people are defending Phil Fish. The guy wasn't a victim at all in this. Hell the things Marcus said weren't even that bad. Do we see Jonathan Blow freaking out about this? No.
Fact of the matter is, Fish was a pretentious prick who somehow got the mindset that he reached God status. He bashed people himself via his twitter, would say rude remarks, say shit about other developers and everything, and you expect the internet to not gain a hatred towards him?
Does it suck Fez 2 is canceled? Yes. Yes it does. But the only reason why it got canceled is because this guy's ego got way too big and got in the way. Fish and other people say "well you get flak for years, you lash back, you can't take the highroad." Uh, yes you can. Others have done it.
Look at Nintendo, prime examples. People make fun of Mario, saying Nintendo sucks, Mario sucks, Zelda sucks, so what does Shigeru Miyamoto do? He tells everyone to fuck themselves and to go die... OH WAIT NO HE DOESN'T, he still makes the games because people still love his games.
Fish needs to smarten the fuck up. He made one good game, he doesn't own the game industry like he was acting like he did. Other developers have gotten a lot more hate than this guy will ever receive, and they look pass it and still make their games.
Do we see the other "victim" Jonathan Blow coming out and saying "Yeah you know what, fuck GameTrailers, I'm taking the money and canceling my game". No. Maybe this move will smarten Fish up.
