Sad...Trolling Better Than Sex

I was perusing Major Nelson's blog today looking for a preview of the new Penny Arcade picture pack and I saw this comment posted there. This is in reference to Greg Canessa leaving the head spot on XBLA for a job at Pop-Cap.

DING DONG, CANESSA'S GONE!

HE'S ALWAYS WRONG!

CANESSA'S GONE!

XBOX LIVE IS SAVED! Good riddance! Go ruin Popcap!

Seriously, after posting "Fire Greg Canessa" dozens of times over the past 8 months on various sites, this feels better than sex.

 


 

It appears that there were quite a few trollers out there who thought Canessa was doing a poor job because he released a bunch of old classic games like Ms. Pacman instead of concentrating on new releases like Assault Heroes. They are totally oblivious to the fact that without Canessa, there would be no Live Arcade or a push for other console makers to develop similar products.

Now, there have been time where I have wanted someone removed from a job or office, but I would never compare that to being better than sex. There are a few things in life that are better than sex, like sex multiple times in a row or sex on a beach. Comparing anything to sex is just plain ridiculous.

So Sayeth the King

Canessa was the mind behind XLA was he not? The initial visionary? Now the constant flow of old titles did get annoying, but he landed some great games, that trolls 360 should melt

it probably some twelve year old whose ideas of sex is a kiss on the cheek or grabbing a girls butt and running like a scared pig. Most people are very ignorant about what they say and I do in most situations, myself included from time to time. People speak before they think, speak out with the wrong information, or are just plain stupid. Bottom line nothing is better than sex, unless you are have sex while playing video games, eating, driving, well sex and just about anything together is better than normal sex.

Sex on the beach *can* be better than regular sex, but you have to be too careful.

Canessa will do better where he is- with people aligned with the same vision and room to grow. I've gotten to know the Popcap guys over the last few months and their so much an advocate for people like 2old2play and casual gaming (i.e. not full hardcore) that it's not even funny. And their friendly, personal and talk to you as a human not as a "fan." CodeMonkey

I think with Canessa with PopCap he can (this might come out wrong) direct them to do more games that take advantage of the XBLA and Marketplace. hopefully improve Bej2.. its way to addicting.. and hard lol

Of course it's better than sex. Trolling doesn't give you friction burns like a pillowcase does.
