    Edit: Scratch that, I can't find the Add as Friend button now so I guess they're the same now. Weird, thought Coonce said they were seperate.

    I found that pretty amusing myself. Though I think you might replace the word "exaggerated" with "demonstrable." ;) Just kidding Mr. Shoemaker, love you.

    This thread should be deleted. Stop mocking Brad, he is one of the main writer's for the site and here you all are laughing at him because he played bad at ARMY OF TWO- which is a shit game anyway. You guys are a disgrace and I hope a mod comes in soon to clean this mess

    Sorry, troll...but the bridge is over >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> this way.  Wait under there for the PROPER thread to hassle. 
     
    As for Brad...I was worried that it was going to say something about him excelling greatly at the game under pressure.  I'm glad it all turned out okay in the end.  = D

    Dude, chill out. Troll somewhere else. I was teasing Brad as evidenced with my whole "Tee-hee. Couldn't resist." aspect of the post. I simply thought it was cool that he was mentioned in an article on Bitmob and was not mocking him in any way, shape or form. This is jesting at the most. Hope you understand.

    Big difference between calling him fat and joking about something that people have been teasing Brad about for years.

    No one is laughing AT Brad.  I don't know the dood personally, but I'm sure that he's got no problem poking fun at himself...especially when he was trying like hell to not die in the Uncharted 2 Quick Look.

    Shown by my added emphasis, I think it is obvious I was laughing at the quote. But, because this is your opinion, feel free to believe whatever you want.

    I did read the rather insulting article. And how is my word misinformed? The guy writing the article says Brad is "bad at games" and you're laughing your ass off like the sad troll you are, pathetic

    What are you -- his mom? If I had someone I didn't know "standing up for me" in joke threads, I'd be creeped out and think they were a budding stalker. If you need to fly the flag of justice around and fight the evils of the world, go fight poverty or famine or something. Part of the package of fame -- on the internet or otherwise -- is the fact that people will poke fun at you.  Brad's a big boy; I'm sure people sharing a giggle over an article that has  some fun at his expense won't scar him for life. And if it does, well... scars are pretty sexy, so it's a win-win situation.

    I am going to take a cue (the right one) from ververdan0226 and stop feeding the real troll at hand here. However, as a final statement, I'll say that I was laughing at a quote that Aaron Thomas wrote about. Is it poking fun at Brad? Sure! But as Aaron Thomas usually does, he evolves his article to contradict or refute a commonly-thought point by its conclusion, shown by another interesting piece of writing here. But, alas, I know these "arguments" always progress in a hidebound and one-sided way so I'll stop here.

    Everyone...  Brad is crying downstairs right this moment.

    yeah sure "no one" is laughing at Brad... "
    Even the crew messes with Brad about 'pulling a Brad'.  Stop overreacting.

    I like being able to know what Brad's tone was in all those quotes from being on Giantbomb a lot. Pretty epic. "I GOT DUDES SHOOTING ME!"

    How would you know if the sequel to Army of Two is a good game or otherwise? You haven't played it...have you?
