David Jaffe recently posted a response on Twitter to an article that labeled him as a “Sell-out” because he let the upcoming Twisted Metal get an online pass. The full post on his Twitter read:
“Love the new tabloid , poorly reported ‘article’ accusing me of being a sell out cuz TM has an online pass. If the wanna be journalist had actually done their job they would have learned 1)its not my game to decide if it has an online pass- we don’t own Twisted Metal and we did not fund the game and 2- I’ve publicly been in favor of many online passes INCLUDING one for TM2PS3 if we ever make a sequel- I just did not want 1 for THIS game cause we need to revels franchise and every person playing- even if we make no cash- helps for when we launch a sequel which- again- I WOULD support an online pass for. Fucking stupid, poorly educated write- dude should be ashamed of himself for sucking so much at his job.”
I have to agree with Jaffe in the sense that people should not be so quick to complain and lay blame and should instead accept it for what it is. Hopefully that journalist saw that post and learned that he shouldn’t be so quick to jump to conclusions.
