Since I need a place to rant and rave, I thought Dtoid would be the perfect place for me to express my madness!

Gamecock Head Tears into Romero, Romero on Suicide Watch
Xav | 2:15 AM on 01.19.2008 2 comments


After John (please still pay attention to me) Romero threw some harsh language at Gamecock CEO, and former business partner, Mike Wilson it seemed like the battle had ended.

Romero called Wilson out for his jackass stunts today as more of the same from his days with Ion Storm citing Wilson "partied all the time."

Wilson replied with a friendly letter, sent to Kotaku, that can only be comparable to pitting Mike Tyson in a bare knuckle-boxing match against that slow kid, Corky, from Life Goes On.

Wilson threw punch after punch in Romero's direction, with an exceptionally devastating ending-right hook, when he says to Romero:

"your unparalleled work ethic and strong character has [...] left only a bloody trail of ex-wives, fatherless kids, and ill advised breast implants strewn across this fair nation."

DIP!

Wow John. Let this go to show you, you should never get into a battle of wits with someone unless you pack some ammunition-- then again, you made Daikatana... so what the fuck do you know about planning!

Now Wilson was mighty harsh, so just in case you decide to do anything rash I thought I'd remind you... when you're holding the blade to your forearm; going up the street is the right way, across the hall doesn't do a thing.

Oh and Wilson, release a game already.
