    "They have besieged our office, but they probably won't have the intelligence to use the ladders that they are currently constructing", commented one CA manager.

    "Indeed, we do not even expect them to realise that we have left the front door open"
    The game development business is one of bottomless greed, pitiless cruelty, venal treachery, rampant competition, low politics and boundless personal ambition. New game series are rising, and others are starting their long slide into obscurity and defeat.

    Nice try.

    Encase, anyone is confuse:
    As you’ve probably (hopefully) noticed, this is a satire-site. A little bit like The Onion, except that it’s dedicated to video games and the video game industry. It also has a smaller budget. And fewer readers. And a lot less content. And lower quality content.
    http://pixeledcourier.com/2013/07/14...xeled-courier/


    Although, I do think this site has potential, maybe not Onion material.

    Nice read though

    "No reason to fear the few that do use the ladders, boys" added a senior, sage CA manager.

    "How come?" questioned the silly, zit-faced new intern

    "Simple. They lack the agility to close the running gap and shall fall to break their knees and retry again in futile attempts, repeatedly" retorted this sage CA manager.

    Maybe if CA would patch the fans siege capability, this siege would actually work.

    They bright up empire, which as far as I can tell they never managed to fix.

    That was pretty funny.
