    This is frustratingly stupid.

    Wonder when my five minutes will come.

    It seems to me he's just whining for the sake of whining. I can understand that an adoption joke might offend some people, but that's when you turn the game off, not call up the news station.

    Well, the point of the adoption jokes were to be offensive. So good job, fictional villain.

    This is where I'd normally say something about video games being used as a scapegoat but this time for something this stupid don't reckon I'll bother!

    "VIDEO GAME MAKES FUN OF ADOPTION."

    Anyway, the clip in that news story reveals major spoilers about the game.

    The spoiler is that there are no portals, only HATS.

    I just saw a follow-up to this. I seriously don't understand why this made the news. The guy's not even flipping out; he's just kinda upset.

    The news caster went into how much crap she's getting from gamers, and read a couple of emails like "Why are you even covering this? What are you hoping to accomplish here?" I was amused.

    "It's a fantastic game, it's a great game, it's just that one little blurb in there..."

    If you like the game why did you whine about it to your local news station?

    That's some horrendously bad journalism.
