Y-12 guards suspended over video devices

There's an appropriate time and place for portable gaming. Stuck in a dentist's waiting room? Of course. In the back seat during a lengthy road trip? Go right ahead. Waiting for the movie to start? Acceptable! Working as a security guard stationed in the heart of one of the nation's oldest high-security nuclear weapons plants? No, sir.

Three guards have been suspended for bringing video game devices, including one with transmitting capability, into the heart of a high-security nuclear weapons plant. Wackenhut Services spokeswoman Courtney Henry confirmed to 10News that the three security police officers were suspended without pay for an incident three weeks ago at the Department of Energy's Y-12 nuclear weapons plant in Oak Ridge.

The Obvious5405d ago

Nuclear devices can blow up with severe consequences.

k jules5404d ago

No Sh!t Sherlock, you really are the Obvious lol

PainisCupcake5404d ago

Thanks Gordon Freeman...........

Timesplitter145404d ago

Why do you people disagree?

Are you all heartless bastards with absolutely no sense of humor?

His name is "The Obvious", btw

tsk tsk...

gintoki7775404d ago

nuclear devices blowing up is not a good thing

Timesplitter145404d ago (Edited 5404d ago )

I remain unconvinced by your arguments, gintoki. Maybe we should return to the labs and do more tests. Maybe our test subjects were simply allergic to nuclear explosions in the face.

danielle0075404d ago

Prettttty terrible. But still, hilariousss!

Timesplitter145404d ago (Edited 5404d ago )

I don't think a nuclear weapons plant can blow up the planet, unless they said "planet" as in "an american city" as in "the rest of the world doesn't count"

Cenobia5404d ago (Edited 5404d ago )

Well the initial explosion wouldn't have, but we'd be like:
"OMG! WE'VE BEEN HIT!!!! KILL EM ALL BEFORE THE REST OF THE MISSILES GET HERE!!!"

At which point someone would push an abnormally large red button, sending nukes to Russia, Cuba, Korea, the entire Middle East, and France for good measure. Also, probably Canada because they talk funny and are slowly killing us with beer and bacon.

By killing almost everyone we'd be sure to hit the person that launched the nuke.

DanteLinkX5404d ago

You guys are too funny LOL.

mrv3215404d ago

I highly doubt Russia or America would act with any sort of Aggression if something happend for two reasons

The Cold war is over
Russsia is no longer communist.

All that would happen is a fairly large explosion and a massive drop in American economy worse then 1929 causes another world war and escillation into a nuclear holocaust. Sounds like christmas.

I would kill to have a Way of the Samurai game with a huge budget and modern tech... The first game was one of my greatest joys on PS2 back in the day. And I really hope From Software will do something with Tenchu... I hate that they're just sitting on the IP like it doesn't even exist.

Relientk7721d ago

Don't play with my feelings like that.

Also, new Tenchu please!

TheColbertinator21d ago

Tenchu would be superb in this day and age. Ninja and samurai games are hot right now and more is better.

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5224d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212124d ago (Edited 24d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

MrNinosan24d ago

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5223d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5223d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Barlos24d ago

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani24d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum24d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman24d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim24d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

I disagree Batman

It's insane its been this long since the last release.

CrimsonWing6926d ago

Not from you.

Knowing how you handled FF16 by trying to make it appeal to non-fans and changing the entire gameplay design I can see you changing Tactics to appeal to non-fans.

If they’re going to do this please give it to someone who wants to keep the game and genre in tact.

VersusDMC26d ago

He worked on tactics ogre reborn. Was there changes? He wouldn't make an FF tactics game an action game. It will be AA but faithful. Probably what the Diofield Chronicles team and some of the FFXVI team is probably working on already and he is just keeping a secret.

And FF hasn't had a set gameplay design since X. I disliked the MMO, 12, 13 FF's but didn't mald for years. I played other games. Stop crying as he probably won't make a single player FF again and will be busy with the next FF MMO.

EternalTitan26d ago

I can feel your hatred. Keep it up.

Ataraxias26d ago

Tactics Ogre Reborn was an overall solid product but almost eliminated the concept of builds in the game.
So we'd probably end up with a system where character jobs like Mercenary for Ramza is 80% of the character instead of being freeform.

SegaSaturn66926d ago

Tactics Ogre Reborn changed a lot of gameplay mechanics for the worse. The class system is weird and hard to lock in roles, and they shoehorned a new "random card appearing" mechanic on the maps which makes no sense. Previously you obtained those boosts from killing powerful opponents, not spawning randomly.

There's a way better way to play Tactics Ogre: the fanmade onevision mod of the psp version.

EternalTitan26d ago

16 was just a terrible mess.
Its not even a JRPG let alone a final fantasy game.
Yosi piss(who said he hates JRPGs) should not touch another Final Fantasy game ever again.

VersusDMC26d ago

87 metacritic can't be a terrible mess.
If Kingdom Hearts is a JRPG then FFXVI is a JRPG. And he said he hates the term JRPG as it carries a bad stereotype with western journalists.

So you're just incorrect on several fronts...

Asterphoenix26d ago

I wouldn't mind a new FF Tactics longs they keep the tactical elements of Tactics in it as well as a very in depth story. Which FF Tactics years ago has by far one of the best stories in the series.

Tapani25d ago

Yes, alongside with Vagrant Story. Playing FFT, then Vagrant story and finally FFXII is a bliss. Deepest lore and best stories ever made in video games.
