Re: Vivendi Games and Sony Sued for just a game

They said that he's become disabled. I don't know in what region, but man, that sounds dangerous.

I think I see where they're coming from; I'd put that down to rapid exposure of one of the flash-type graphical glitches in the game. But still, this sounds amazing and not in the "I praise someone's skill" sense.

Additionally, don't all games feature these epileptic warnings anyway? I'm sure that the parent could have responded to that straight away.

Too bad for her. Suck it up.

It warns people, and if they choose not to listen, thats their fault. if they don't want to take the risk, then don't play the game.

If they give a warning in the manual, they can't be touched.

Re: Vivendi Games and Sony Sued for just a game

thats why they put it in there. they don't really care if you die from playing their game, because they got your $50 cnd for it at the stores, and you can't sue them.

I don't; I go through the manual first in case there's anything new I need to know. It helps out, really. ^_^
