That's not fair. I'm constantly amazed by how much work Square Enix seems to WANT to do. Heck, they REMAKE entire games when they rerelease them. They don't just rerelease the game in as original (and faithful) a format they can (like Nintendo is apt to), they instead INSIST on remaking (read: "ruining" the nostalgia factor in) entire games, like doing FF3 and FF4 in 3D, or adding 3D cut scenes (UGH!!!) to FF6 when they rereleased it on the PS.

Hey, could someone do me a quick favor and see if they can see a comment from a commenter named "Jason" on this site: http://threespeech.com/blog/?p=446#comments

I'm suddenly getting the feeling that the comments on this blog are entirely fabricated over time, and that everyone sees their own comments, but no one else's, except for the plants. I smell another dirty, dirty trick, though I could be wrong.

I went to your link and did not see a comment made be a Jason...but I dunno I did not search the site very well.

The link http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/8493/commentmv2.jpg shows what I see when I go to that page and scroll down some.

Try posting something, and see what happens, then maybe taking a screenshot and posting it here. I think this website is almost certainly an entire scam, and not just a spin machine.

You're kidding me. Threespeech fabricates an entire community for people to fall into?!?!?!?

that Baby guy · « **Reply #2080 on:** June 27, 2007, 02:23:34 PM »

I'm getting that impression. Though, there could just be a comment lockdown from the Penny-Arcade mention, it doesn't make sense that I'm allowed to even post and the comments show up on my own page when I go there. I think I'll close all my browser windows and see what happens when I load them back up.

Edit: Nope, it's still there.

I was able to leave a comment.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #2082 on:** June 27, 2007, 02:44:23 PM »

Which page? I bet we can't see it. What number is it on that page?

If it's on the same page I linked to, it certainly isn't there. Can you see my comment?

On an unreleated note, thatguy your avatar is giving me a seizure >.<

...I....don't know...what you are talking...about...

nickmitch · « **Reply #2085 on:** June 27, 2007, 03:15:06 PM »

This is what I see when I go there now:

For comparison, a clip of what I see now.

Ok, now there is a ninth comment on my screen for this story. It says:

Does my comment show up for anyone, now? I don't see TVman's, still, and the homepage now says that there are eight comments, instead of nine, while before it said there were seven comments, instead of eight.

nickmitch · « **Reply #2090 on:** June 27, 2007, 04:08:10 PM »

Lol. What will Sony think of next?

Edit: I can't see thatguy's comment. This is definitive proof that Sony falsifies blog comments as well as blogs.

Urkel · « **Reply #2091 on:** June 27, 2007, 05:00:11 PM »

As LOLarious as it would be that Sony might fabricate blog comments, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Hello Mark. You weren’t censored. When you post a response on this blog you’ll see it, but it then goes into moderation before anyone else can see it. You have our full blessing to suggest we resemble fat cartoon characters sporting half bald/half long combo hair.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #2092 on:** June 27, 2007, 05:11:01 PM »

Nope, I'm not buying it. Even if what they say is true, then they are selecting what people read. That means they might be hand-picking exactly which comments they want, choosing those that are pro-Sony, rather than those that contain negativity. Essentially, this would almost be the same thing.

However, until someone else actually sees my comments on the site, I will believe that they posted that particular comment as part of a cover up. Why would they randomly post one thing at 3:30 AM whatever time zone they are in, when there are at least two other comments out there waiting to be posted about that story? I still say something is fishier than SOny would like us to know, and I think they really are blocking almost all of the comments on the site, at least, if not only posting their own comments, including some false answers to create a false truth about the site.

Kairon · « **Reply #2093 on:** June 27, 2007, 06:13:59 PM »

Well, if they're simply moderating comments, that's more understandable. Back to defcon 1.

Direction of popular dissent, controlled elections, propaganda, indoctrination..

Ceric · « **Reply #2095 on:** June 28, 2007, 02:28:21 AM »

It make more sense for Sony just to moderate and pick out the Pro ones then to spend the staff and money associated with it generating new ones.

EasyCure · « **Reply #2096 on:** June 28, 2007, 05:13:17 AM »

was this your comment??

So if it isn’t a “..,bona fide Playstation advert,” what is it? Did Sony still create it? Who paid to have it published? I must assume this thing didn’t just pop out of thin air and appear in Indian magazines.

Gotta love Penny Arcade.

ThreeSpeach comic ftw: http://www.penny-arcade.com/images/2007/20070627.jpg

I also love the closing line on their main page blog (http://www.penny-arcade.com/):

"With the compact E3 about to begin, the tactical nature of the conflict will become more brutal. People get even nastier when they're vying for second place than when they're fighting for first. When you're playing for scraps - and rest assured, dear readers, that you and I are the scraps - you have to get all of them to make it work. Nintendo has simply skipped the first phase - building the brand with us - and jumped straight to the mainstream play. It's worked flawlessly. And it's made their competitors increasingly uncomfortable."

So true.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #2098 on:** June 28, 2007, 06:44:24 AM »

Yeah, alright, mine and TVman's comments finally showed up. They just have a retarded moderator system. One that could be censoring logic, or perhaps just bad posts. Who knows?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #2099 on:** June 28, 2007, 06:59:58 AM »

They probably have a ton of trolls that go through there and ruin the comments section.
N-tards and X-bots can be so cruel sometimes.
