    So while half of the gaming twitterverse is still coming to grips with Sutherland vs. Hayter, it seems like another half is actively trolling Kamiya, himself king of dev trolls.

    I like the man, and I like some snark when it's actually backed up by effort. And god damn if he doesn't make 20-tweet long chains to "answer" every question thrown his way. Yet I can see this not ending well if he keeps telling "customers" to save their money.

    Maybe Platinum will tin-can his mecha-ass and he'll do a project with Fish? The most Unhumble of Bundles. Anyhoo, love me some hawt twitter dramaz. ;)

    I feel like the internet has created thousands of real life Annie Wilkes, just waiting for their favorite creative type to fall into their loving hands.

    Didn't Polygon or some site fall for one of Kamiya's "next week..." troll tweets recently?

    I'm usually not the one to say this, but I can't believe the things that people get upset about sometimes.

    I used to think he was kind of an ass, but you know what? I totally get it. In his situation, dealing with that kind of thing all the time, I'd be pretty flippant too. It's awful PR, but no man is a machine (except Vinny), and he knows as well as we do that he can get away with it.

    @hailinel: Lots of sites picked it up. :) http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=575001

    But I guess we'll have to wait for June 11th and see. Perhaps it's an inside joke and he has a history of his announcements being bumped by publishers "sorry, next time Kamiya-san".

    Oh wow, that's really funny and at the same time kind of sad. If I had a Twitter account, I would follow him and Inaba for sure.

    At some point you've gotta give what you get. Do people actually expect real constructive interaction through Twitter? I never use it.

    @reisz: Sure there's the potential for it. I dont know how you can dismiss that potential when you dont even use the service yourself.

    He blocked me because I asked if I could touch his thigh. I guess he just wasn't in the mood or something.

    Unlike a certain indie developer, this guy knows how to react to trash journalism and Twitter assholes.

    @icemael: Yeah, exactly guy can talk shit as well as take it and not let it get to him. Which is what makes him so fucking hilarious.
