Difference in Opinion

Mass Effect has been on the minds of gamers ever since it was announced a few years ago. Apparently since it’s release, it has been on the mind of skeptics as well. Recently, FOX News did a segment just about Mass Effect, and it’s “full frontal nudity.” On one side of the argument was a author/podcaster, Cooper Lawrence who obviously had a chip on her shoulder about gaming. Bringing reason and fact to the situation, Geoff Keighley (from Spike TV) did an amazing job of representing gamers everywhere as well as supporting the truths of Mass Effect.

EA wrote an extremely solid response to FOX asking for a correcting for their false information. FOX responded by dusting them off their shoulder. Gamers took their own revenge against Cooper Lawrence by leaving hundreds of 1 star reviews on her books on Amazon. While somewhat childish and not actually doing much but hurting her book sales, surprisingly the responses and reviews are mostly all well written and great retorts.
