Give me a break.I also happen to work at a game company and I'll tell you that's Guru's behavior was very questionable. It's one thing to Lurk and read posts. It's another to bash every other competing game without any sort of ability to take criticism of your own game. You gotta take the good and bad from these sites and if you read over the couse of guru's post they paint a picture of complete deceit. Forum's probably represent about .00001% percent of sales and he knows it. He's just trying to be sneaky weasel and he got caught. Just to let everyone know if you already didn't there are definitely people on this site from all the major companies. Most of them probably do post about their game either defending it, or setting the record straight on something. Operation Sports should be happy that their sites gets this kind of attention. Hopefully most posters are a little less evil and malicious about it though than Guru.

Exactly. Guru never was able to just admit any fault with ASB. In his eyes, it has been the holy grail of game series' and would rather die before he admitted anything wasn't up to snuff. At least Fat Pitcher could just say "hey we wanted to do it but we couldn't this time" or just flat out say it was messed up.
While I never had any ill will towards you, Guru, you are just way too fanatical about defending ASB. You treat it like it is your damn kid. I mean, come on. You go on and on and on about the "karate kick" slides in High Heat, but when someone made mention of the "vaccum glove" effect in ASB you jumped all over them for it.
I actually enjoyed some of your posts, but far too often it seemed like your sole purpose here was to stir the pot, which I am sure it was. On one level, I will definitely miss reading your stuff, as it was sure to always provide a good chuckle. Not quite as high on the same unintentional comedy scale as Skilz' posts, but pretty close.
Call it what you want, but outside of sheer stupidity, there was no reason for you to be as biased against other games as much as you were. I am sure even your favorite Uncle Trip thinks that the Army Men games are pieces of dung behind closed doors.
No hard feelings, Guru and your "ghost", I just call it like I see it.
