Seems rather imbalanced... Patrick's goal was to win, Dan's goal was not to lose.

It is a pity nobody played Tales of Borderlands, since the game could have earned a nomination in Best Character and Best Moment

I don't think removing it of people lists is a good policy, even when they are refunding them. A better option would be to give the people the option to get refunded.

It sets a weird precedent when a game publisher can remove games from your library...

@sweetz: I have seen Arkham Knight in several friends PC. Even when satisfying the requirements, 30 fps would have been welcomed compared to what we got.

@qawsed: To be fair, the same happened with Darwin and the whole eugenics/"survival of the fittest" misinterpretation...

Well that's the great lesson of history, isn't it? Person A does a thing, and Person B quietly perverts it in order to better suit Person B's personal goals. I don't think it's fair to put Stalinist Russia (along with all the other delightfully cruel communist despots from the 20th century) on Marx's karmic tab, because how his work was perverted is no different to how anything else gets perverted. People who want power will use anything they can, and twist anything they can, to get it.

I mean really, if we're going to hate on Marx for something, it should be for his naivety in the belief that his philosophy could actually work in the real world. Sounds like a fifth grader who thinks we can achieve world peace "if we just wished really hard for it."

Of course, that is true.

Also, if we are going to go around accusing philosophers for being too naive in thinking their ideas would work in a world outside their mental constructs, we could just save time and drop the whole lot down the drain...
