The game’s creator addressed some of the issues raised about the game in an audio statement in which he insisted that the game has a gun safety message.

Regardless if he had good intentions about spreading the word about gun control, he picked a very poor way of demonstrating that. Video games are meant to be fun, what kind of fun should you be having while you are recreating such a tragedy..

gamesR4fun3810d ago

yep nothing of worth no message no truth

besides serious doubts on the official SH story many think it was just another false flag

The truth is already out there. Still I find the game sickening, not the best way to send a message across.

The fact you have 3 likes scares me...

MrSwankSinatra3809d ago

you see this is the type of shit, that gives the video game industry a bad wrap. i guarantee if the media finds out about this your gonna see it all over the news.

jmac533809d ago

I feel either the person that made this is sick in the head or is blatantly trying to discredit videogames by being controversial and hoping Fox news picks up on it.

memots3809d ago

Wrap ? How do you wrap the gaming industry ?

I think you meant "Rep" as in reputation?

chrissx3809d ago

This is just so wrong in every sense. Pathetic

Man I don't get this, there's plenty of other ways to address the issue, but recreating a tragedy such as this isn't one, I don't think it's fair on the victims families either. I like the fact he's trying to address the issue but like this, this has just gone the other way.

I wouldn't exactly call this a game smh, I hope he comes to his senses. That's if he had any to begin with!

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
