Game PR Catchphrases: What They Really Mean

Quote: "Downloadable content available through our website!"
Indicates: There's going to be new levels, new maps, new everything after the game is out, making the purchase fully worth your $50.
True Meaning: We'll fix the game breaking bug about 3 weeks after the game's out, hope you guys aren't on 56K because it'll be a 186 MB patch. Also, hopefully this game will have some devoted mod/map makers, because the publisher isn't going to release shit. But there are some cool wallpapers to download!

True Meaning: Run. Run fast and hard. Move at night under the cover of darkness, and take whatever rest you can manage during the daylight hours. They purposely forgot to mention the games he created between his masterpiece and now; failures in every sense of the word that sucked because his over inflated ego led him to believe that he could make even the most ambitious and convoluted ideas work. Take a bow, messrs Molineux and Crammond. It's funny because it's true.

Compare and contrast to the previous offering from 17372. See Roman L Hruska on G. Harrold Carswell. 'Nuff said.

reklaw: Do you want us to email them? Yes. Orange Goblin: Could have done with editing down a bit. Yes, it could have. I'm sure Bob will remember that the next time he posts a link about Game PR catchphrases from somethingawful.com, and wants to give an example. Satapher: wtf. its like jeffk without the novelty. It's like jeffk with grammar, in other words.

Roman L Hruska on G. Harrold Carswell: I will resist the temptation to post the entire content of that link in tiny type, and instead trust that interested parties will click through.

yes indeedy. editing. They could have cut out that whole "this indicates" bit and just got to the punch line. Thusly: "here's marketing hype- here's what it really means" and then it could have been as good as a mid-80's MAD Magazine article.
