Slaughter: Horror at Sony's depraved promotion stunt with decapitated goat | the Daily Mail

It seems like anything they do now people get all uptight

All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.

Killing an animal for food is one thing, killing it to promote violent video games is something completely different and fucked up.

This makes the entire gaming industry look bad, because people are going to ask "They decapitated a goat to promote a game, what other grotesque things are the doing?"

Dumb Sony.

Sounds to me like they were using it for food.

I have no problem with this. Sounds like a friggin' awesome party.

A Texan, Visiting Newfoundland, told a local about the size of his ranch. "I can drive my pickup for a day and a night, and still not leave my land."
"Oh yeah," said the Newfie "I used to have a truck like that."

sony could have easily faked a dead goat... its not just the vegetarian in me that's saying "this is wrong."

also, I personally find this story much more interesing. William newly single and completely smashed? I'm getting on a plane to England immediately.

Step one: Cut a hole in a box.

It wasn't until I saw it again on another site that I realised that the girl actually has paint on her tits, not fabric. That makes the dead-goat all good haha

Why would anyone be a vegetarian? I don't get it. If animals weren't meant to be eaten, god wouldn't have made them so delicious

Truth! Hope! Change! Generalities! Policies? Stupidity. Obama 08.

Licorice King's 

Gamercard

This story was spinned to hell and back. The goat wasn't fucking killed there, it was dead before it got to the event. Notice no blood? They borrowed it from a local butcher, and it was RETURNED at the end of the night. Meaning? Any use a dead goat could have had originally (people eat goat meat?) it's still going to have at the end of the night. It's not like they just tossed it in the dumpster outside.

Second, the "intestines" journalists were invited to pull out of a "freshly killed, still warm corpse" was a traditional meat soup, served to them in bowls. No one was allowed to touch the goat.

Bunch of goddamn pussies, I swear.

That being said, this event was sort of a stupid move for Sony. I really hope it's that extra push to let Jaffe be head director of gow3.
