Why Total Biscuit and not Hamma?

SuperMorto · 2012-05-10, 05:04 PM

I fail to see any reason why Total Biscuit should be going to SOE and Hamma should not be going to SOE????

Except 1!!

Yea Hamma doesn't have 500,000 followers.

Thats a bit fucked up if you ask me.

If it wasn't for Hamma keeping this site alive for all this time. Then im sure a lot less people would know about Planetside 2.

And now TB is going to come and walk all over it.

I have no idea what this is about; however, if Total Biscuit is going to SOE to check out PS2 we're going to have a tidal wave of his eight year old followers in the game.

We get a lot from the devs here. We really couldn't ask for more.

Because Hamma doesn't have a huge following. And he doesn't report on gaming media like TB does.

Not saying Hamma isn't a cool guy who shouldn't get to hang out with the devs at SOE. I'm just saying that he isn't exactly the guy for that specific kind of purpose (reporting game media) that you're leaning towards.

I have no words.

Edit: I swear you have this multiple personality thing going on Morto. One of you is a regular person, and the other is fatally dumb.

Do you think SOE is asking TB to visit out of the goodness of their hearts?

Why a competition?

Hamma ‏ @CDLHamma
Annoyed. Checking out of PlanetSide 2 for a couple days. Holla!

Keep up to date n00bs.

And all I'm saying is its a bit fucking shitty if you ask me.

I don't know...Maybe it's lack of sleep, but that made me burst out in laughter for whatever reason.

What would SOE get out of having Hamma visit? He's not a journalist and his audience is already well aware of Planetside 2 and it's development, direction and progress.

If you're serious about embracing new media and community, which we obviously are, there's not a lot of difference between getting popular youtube casters & bloggers into the studio to get an early look at the game than there is letting normal "press" in.

I was just remarking today that it's interesting that the PS2 hype train really hadn't shifted into high gear...and now, it seems it is about to!

I'm not against the TB move Higby. And I know why you guys are doing it, its a good move.

Its more the, why couldn't Hamma come and take a look. He's been carrying the PS name for far longer on the internet, than even SOE has.

Come on Higby. You know what this would of meant to Hamma. He's put a lot of effort into PS and PS2. Way more than TB or the press. He has a news page that gets all the PS attention, but still he has had no early look at the game.

I'm fairly new round here and even I can see it. And I'm quite surprised that more are not agreeing with me.

Maybe I am the only one who sees this.

And maybe I should just shut the fuck up.
