E3 Killer Instinct ‘rape joke’ controversy

The Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3 as it’s known, is no stranger to controversy but has never trodden on the sensitive topic of rape before. During a demonstration for the Killer Instinct reboot, which will be an Xbone exclusive, a particular bout of dialogue has caused immediate backlash on Twitter and led to a quick apology from Microsoft.

I honestly don't see it as a rape joke. It's part of gaming culture for fucks sake. Seriously.

Myst3975d ago

They really should watch twitch or at least listen in when people play fighters. I hear this kind of stuff a lot...

xHeavYx3974d ago

While I think the joke could have been skipped, calling it a" controversy" is going too far. It was just a guy not thinking before speaking

crxss3975d ago

not really a rape joke. just a funny joke

Kurt Russell3975d ago

Exactly what a rapist would want us to think ;)

omfg, it wasnt a rape joke, seriously. im disliking how people are turning a couple words into a whole problem when it clearly wasnt even related to rape.

Godmars2903975d ago

E3 is about talking to the general public about games. The general public knows jack all about banter during online matches fighting or otherwise.

And to someone who understands both general public and online gamer speak - that was a rape joke!

The real joke though would have been if the woman had said it. If MS had brought out a woman who actually knew how to play and she just shot off the quip.

But then there'd likely be a few articles about emasculation.

Rape joke? Really? Did feminism take away your manhood or something? Lol seriously, it was far from a rape joke.

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.
